Rest-of-Season Projections
Yields three runs as opener
Schultz gave up three runs on four hits while striking out one across two innings in Friday's 6-4 win over Minnesota. He did not issue a walk.
ANALYSIS
Schultz was named the opener for Friday's contest despite working on just two days of rest. That may have factored into his shaky performance as he yielded at least one run in each of the two frames he pitched in, including a Trevor Larnach solo homer in the first. Schultz tossed 40 pitches (24 strikes) and generated five whiffs before handing the ball off to Eric Lauer for the third frame. Schultz has a 3.24 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 21:4 K:BB across 16.2 innings this season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
With team in Tampa Bay
Schultz is with the Blue Jays in Tampa Bay on Saturday, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
A corresponding move has yet to be announced, but Schultz -- who has spent most of the season with Triple-A Buffalo -- could operate out of the Blue Jays' bullpen as soon as Saturday. He's appeared in two major-league games this season and has allowed three earned runs on six hits and two walks while striking out 11 across 6.2 innings. Schultz struck out eight batters across 4.1 frames against the Mariners on April 20, which tied a major-league record for a pitcher making their MLB debut in a relief role, per Matheson.
