	Justin Foscue went 2-for-2 in a win over the Angels with a home run, two runs scored, and two RBI. Chris Schommer Wed, Jul 8th	Brandon Valenzuela went 1-for-4 in loss to the White Sox with a solo home run. Chris Schommer Sat, Jul 18th
	Justin Foscue went 2-for-4 in a win over the Blue Jays with a home run, one run scored, and three RBI. Chris Schommer Sat, Jun 27th	Blue Jays catcher Brandon Valenzuela went 1-for-3 with a homer and a walk in a 6-4 win over the Orioles on Sunday. Brenton Kemp Mon, Jun 8th
	Justin Foscue went 1-for-1 with a home run and a walk in two plate appearances off the bench against the Twins on Thursday. The homer continued a productive stretch for the infielder, who is batting .274/.333/.493 through 81 plate appearances this season. Bruno Mulé Fri, Jun 19th	Blue Jays catcher Brandon Valenzuela went 3-for-3 with two doubles, a run, and an RBI in a 6-4 win over the Orioles on Saturday. Brenton Kemp Sun, Jun 7th
	With Corey Seager back from the injured list, Ezequiel Duran is expected to take over as the primary starter at second base, further limiting Foscue's opportunities. He had already lost his semi-regular role at the position when Texas added Nicky Lopez, and Sunday marked just his second start in the last eight games — both coming against left-handed pitching. Bruno Mulé Mon, Jun 8th	Blue Jays catcher Brandon Valenzuela went 1-for-3 with a home run in a 13-3 loss to the Orioles on Friday. Brenton Kemp Sat, Jun 6th
	Justin Foscue went 3-for-3 in a loss to the Rockies with a home run, two doubles, one run scored, three RBI, and one walk. Chris Schommer Tue, May 19th	Blue Jays catcher Brandon Valenzuela stole his first base of the season in a 6-2 win over the Pirates on Friday. Brenton Kemp Sat, May 23rd
