Notes: Only the 12-2 Tigers have a better record than the Jays in Florida. ... Bard allowed seven runs in 2.2 innings in his last appearance, causing much angst. ... Toronto was off on Monday. ... The Red Sox still have 53 players in camp, 51 with John Lackey and Bobby Jenks on the DL. Daisuke Matsuzaka, Rich Hill, Ryan Kalish and Carl Crawford are DL-bound, too. That still leaves 46, meaning plenty of cuts to be made.
