NEW YORK -- Boston Red Sox closer Koji Uehara is still out because of stiffness in his right shoulder and its uncertain when he will be able to pitch again. Devon Kennard Lions Jersey . Red Sox manager John Farrell said Uehara was unavailable for Saturdays game at Yankee Stadium. Uehara felt discomfort during warmups Friday night before a 4-2 win over New York. Uehara has said he doesnt think the problem is a serious one. Farrell said theres a chance Uehara would return to Boston for an exam. Farrell said its too early to predict whether the right-hander would need to go on the disabled list. Uehara will try to follow his normal pregame routine on Sunday by throwing at a distance of 200 feet. The 39-year-old Uehara starred last season as Boston won the World Series title. He has not allowed a run in five games this year, recording two saves while pitching five innings. Luke Willson Jersey . Case in point: LeBron James vs. Ben McLemore. James was driving to the rim in the first quarter and McLemore decided to try to take the charge, which was quite admirable and predictably futile. Tracy Walker Lions Jersey . Jurrjens signed a minor league contract with Cincinnati in May, and was 2-3 with a 4.46 ERA at Triple-A Louisville. He has a 53-37 record with a 3.63 ERA in seven major league seasons, including five with Atlanta. http://www.lionsfootballpro.com/Lions-Frank-Ragnow-Jersey/ .And although FIFAs investigators are preparing to release the findings of a World Cup corruption probe, Hassan Al Thawadi dismissed any chance of Qatar losing the showpiece event.TORONTO - Kevin Pillar was in centerfield for a fourth-straight game on Saturday, maximizing an opportunity at consistent playing time by swinging a better bat, hustling on the base paths and playing all out defence. Pillars doing his best to refute the old saying that you never get a second chance to make a first impression. "Thats what any young player wants, just a little consistent playing time to make the adjustments, to show you belong at this level, show you can play," said Pillar. "I come to the yard ready to play everyday whether Im in the lineup or not. I cant remember the last time I played centrefield four days in a row but Im pretty happy about it and hoping we can start winning some games." Pillar entered Saturdays action 4-for-12 in three games since his recall from Triple-A Buffalo. On Wednesday night he turned a single through the left side into a double, hustling from the moment he left the batters box. On Friday, Pillar made a head-long, diving catch of a Brian McCann shallow flyball to end the fourth inning. Hes making what already was an interesting situation even more complicated. Colby Rasmus did serve as the designated hitter on Friday but otherwise has been relegated to the bench over the four-game stretch. The Blue Jays said Rasmus had a stomach virus in the middle of the week. Obviously, hed recovered by the time the Yankees arrived in town. Anthony Gose is expected to be recalled when rosters expand on September 1. That leaves five legitimate outfielders (Jose Bautista, Melky Cabrera, Rasmus, Pillar, Gose) vying for playing time at three spots. Bautista isnt going anywhere. Cabrera isnt going anywhere. So, barring the unforeseen and the odd day off for either Bautista or Cabrera, it appears to be three guys competing for playing time in centrefield. "Kevs playing good right now," said manager John Gibbons. "Ride him while hes hot, anyway. Hes swinging the bat and playing some good defence." The club has been waiting for Rasmus to get on one of his patented hot streaks, something which hasnt happened for a protracted period of time this season. About to experience his first kick at the free agency can, Rasmus could help himself (monetarily) and the Blue Jays (contributing to wins) by going on a September tear. The ballclub, however, must be realistic about its postseason chances (slim) and in looking to the future, may use September to determine whether Gose and Pillar could form a platoon in 2015. "I dont know what well do when all those guys get here, you know," saaid Gibbons. Frank Ragnow Lions Jersey. BUEHRLES INNINGS With five scheduled starts remaining, Mark Buehrle needs to pitch 33 innings to get to 200 for the season. Its a number particularly important to the 35-year-old, whos won at least 10 games for a 14th consecutive season and is looking to extend his run of throwing 200-plus innings to a 14th-straight year. "Yeah, it means a lot," said Buehrle. "I mean its the goal I set every year. Obviously its going to come to an end sometime, whether its the result of a bad year or retirement. Its one of those things I still, in my mind, want to get to and if I dont, like I said its got to come to an end sometime but Ill get home in the offseason and itll be disappointing if I dont get there." Manager John Gibbons is eager to help Buehrle achieve the mark. With off-days factored in, Buehrles last scheduled start is to be the Thursday, September 25 series finale with the Mariners. "Its important for us, too," said Gibbons. "Wed love to see him get that." Gibbons wont rule out throwing Buehrle in relief on the final day of the season, against Baltimore, if hes a couple of innings away from getting to 200. NEW LOOK LINEUP Its just one move but it had ramifications for six players. Manager John Gibbons, desperately looking for an offensive spark, moved Munenori Kawasaki into the two-hole usually occupied by Melky Cabrera. That pushed each of Melky Cabrera (third), Jose Bautista, Adam Lind, Edwin Encarnacion and Dioner Navarro down a spot. "(Kawasaki) usually gives you a good, tough, battling at-bat," said Gibbons. "He really works the pitchers well. It just kind of lengthens the lineup a little bit. Try something different." ENCARNACION STRUGGLING Edwin Encarnacion entered Saturdays action struggling since his return from a six-week absence with strained right quadriceps. In 12 games, Encarnacion had pieced together a .152/.235/.283 slash line with one home run and seven hits (three doubles). The Blue Jays were hoping getting Encarnacion and Adam Lind (fractured right foot) back in the lineup would be the cure to what ailed them. During a 7-17 August, that hasnt been the case. "Its a timing thing," said manager John Gibbons. "I thought when he first came back he was on a lot of pitches, just fouling them off. This time, hes still a little bit out of whack. We need him to be good, lets face it. He needs to just get his at-bats and hopefully he catches fire because when he does hes awful dangerous."
