Norichika Aoki

Blue Jays' Nori Aoki is on the bench for Friday's matchup

Toronto Blue jays outfielder Nori Aoki is not in the lineup for Friday's road matchup with the Chicago Cubs.

What It Means:

Having spelled Jose Bautista on Thursday afternoon, Aoki will make way for Bautista's return to the lineup today in Chicago.

In his part-time role, our models like Aoki to add 21 hits, 7 RBI and 10 runs over the remainder of the 2017 season.
