Chicago White Sox vs Toronto Blue Jays Starting Lineup — Sunday, Jul 19, 2026

Chicago’s lineup has no MLB history against Trey Yesavage. Sam Antonacci, Munetaka Murakami, Miguel Vargas, Colson Montgomery, Andrew Benintendi, Braden Montgomery, Randal Grichuk, Tristan Peters, and Drew Romo have not faced him in the majors. That makes this a completely unfamiliar matchup for the entire visiting order.

Toronto has at least seen Sean Burke before, though the results are mixed. Nathan Lukes owns the best line in this group at 1-for-2 in 3 PA with a 2.667 OPS, while Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is 1-for-3 in 5 PA with a .933 OPS and Andrés Giménez is 1-for-4 with a .500 OPS. Ernie Clement is hitless in 2 at-bats, going 0-for-2 with a .000 OPS, and both Kazuma Okamoto and Daulton Varsho are hitless in 3 at-bats, each 0-for-3 with a .000 OPS. Sean Keys, Brandon Valenzuela, and Jonatan Clase have no MLB history versus Burke.

The Blue Jays clearly have more familiarity with the opposing starter, with six hitters carrying prior matchup data against Burke. The White Sox, by contrast, are seeing Yesavage for the first time across the board.
