José Berríos turned in 5 1/3 scoreless innings in a no-decision against the Yankees on Friday.

The Jays took a 1-0 lead in the top of the sixth to put Berríos in line for the win when he departed, but it disappeared in the seventh. The team did end up winning anyway to improve to 4-2 in Berríos’s outings this season. José himself, though, is just 1-1 with a 4.24 ERA. His next start will come against the Red Sox, which is also the team his lone win is against.

Jeff Hoffman worked a scoreless ninth against the Yankees for his sixth save Friday.

One of the league’s most dominant relievers to date, Hoffman has a 1.35 ERA and a 19/1 K/BB in 13 1/3 innings. He should be available to close again Saturday.

Alan Roden is not in the Blue Jays’ starting lineup for Friday night’s showdown against the Yankees in New York.

The 25-year-old rookie outfielder has really scuffled out of the gate, slashing just .203/.284/.297 with one homer, five RBI and a 15/5 K/BB ratio through his first 74 plate appearances. With Daulton Varsho (shoulder) likely to return any day now, it’s possible that Roden could wind up being the odd man out in the Blue Jays’ outfield and be sent back to Triple-A Buffalo for more seasoning.

Augustin Ramirez hit a two-run homer in Friday’s 8-4 win over the Mariners on Friday.

Agustín Ramírez hit a two-run homer in Friday’s 8-4 win over the Mariners on Friday.

Ramírez also doubled, and the 23-year-old hit his first MLB homer with a two-run blast off Casey Lawrence. The former New York prospect has been ridiculous with the bat, and while it’s a small sample, hitting .700 with a 1.400 OPS in any amount of playing time deserves admiration. Ramírez has significant upside, and it’s not a crazy notion whatsoever to consider him for a roster spot.

Logan O’Hoppe went 1-for-4 and crushed a solo home run on Friday night as the Angels were clobbered by the Twins in Minneapolis.

O’Hoppe tagged Louis Varland for a 412-foot (109.2 mph EV) solo shot in the sixth inning that pulled the Angels to within six runs at 9-3. That would be his only hit in the ballgame. He’s off to a terrific start at the plate once again this season, slashing .280/.299/.573 with seven long balls and 12 RBI.
