After an inpressive four-game home-and-home sweep of the Philadelphia Phillies, the Toronto Blue Jays welcome the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim to town tonight for the start of a four-game weekend set. The Blue Jays send Dustin McGowan amid rumors that hes battling to maintain starting status, though the teams general manager denied that hes in jeopardy of demotion. "I never understood the whole McGowan watch," Alex Anthopoulos said. "I kept hearing every start is for his job. I dont know that weve ever said it. Its been three starts in a row, every start is for his job. I just dont know that ever came from the organization." He was a 7-2 winner in his most recent outing at Pittsburgh on Sunday and has given up just three earned runs in his last 13 innings of work. "Hes definitely shown me something," Gibbons said. McGowan is 1-4 with a 3.86 ERA in five meetings with the Angels. On Thursday in Toronto, Edwin Encarnacion belted two home runs and drove in three to lead the Blue Jays to a 12-6 rout of the Philadelphia Phillies and sweep of a four-game set. Juan Francisco went 3-for-3 with a solo homer and three runs scored and Adam Lind, fresh off the 15-day disabled list, had a two-run blast and three RBI for Toronto, which outscored the Phillies, 31-11, in the series. Blue Jays starter R.A. Dickey (3-3) worked 6 1/3 innings and allowed three runs on seven hits, while fanning eight. Toronto enters with an average of seven runs scored -- including 13 home runs -- in eight games in May. "We are some kind of hot right now," manager John Gibbons said. "You put us in this ballpark, its a home run heaven here. Its tough to pitch to. Everyone is feeding off each other." Right-hander Garrett Richards will continue his prolonged audition for a spot in the Angels starting rotation tonight. Richards was a part-time starter and reliever heading into this season, but hes been strong beginning games thus far in 2014 while holding opposition batters to a paltry .184 average and striking out 40 in 38 innings. He was a 5-3 winner in his most recent outing on Saturday, when he held Texas to three runs in six innings and struck out nine. He started twice against Toronto in the late stages of the 2013 season and won both assignments while allowing a combined five runs in 13 2/3 innings. On Wednesday in Anaheim, Derek Jeter hit his first homer of the season, Vidal Nuno tossed 6 1/3 solid innings and the New York Yankees beat the Angels, 9-2, in the rubber match of a three-game series. C.J. Cron went 3-for-4 with an RBI for the Angels, who saw starter Hector Santiago (0-6) give up six runs -- two earned -- on five hits with three walks over 2 1/3 innings. "Hector wasnt able to minimize damage tonight," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. "Hes an emotional guy and he needs to get his confidence back." The Angels went 6-1 last season versus the Blue Jays, sweeping a three-game set in Toronto. Andrea Barzagli Juventus Jersey .

Rodgers was ruled out on Friday by Packers head coach Mike McCarthy. Matt Flynn will make his second consecutive start for the Packers.Eoin Morgan could find few flaws in Englands performance after they secured a place in the World Twenty20 final with a seven-wicket win over New Zealand. Ben Stokes and Chris Jordan impressed with the ball before handing over to Jason Roy, whose innings of 78 was worthy of man-of-the-match honours and took England close to their target of 154 for victory.Morgan, who was the victim of a first-ball dismissal, sat with a huge smile on his face as Jos Buttler saw England over the line with some lusty hitting, victory being secured with 17 balls to spare. I dont think (it could have gone any better), Morgan told Sky Sports.Maybe we could have started a little better with the ball, but I thought we did really well to peg it back after the first six or seven overs. Having played on this wicket before, its harder to start than most. So continuing to take wickets throughout the back end of their innings helped us a huge amount.Its the kind of thing you dream of as a kid. Everybody in that changing room has worked tremendously hard and made a lot of sacrifices in order to put us in this position.Roy got Englands reply off to a flying start with four boundaries in the first over, bowled by Corey Anderson, and he appeared to be closing on a maiden T20 international century when a delivery from Ish Sodhi kept low and bowled him. Roy found the boundary with regularity in a superb innings of 78 He said: I just felt it was a chance to go out there on a decent wicket and get off to a great start.dddddddddddd It can be a bit of a dangerous total, so I gave it a good crack and it came off.The whole team has got that licence and opportunity to go out there and do what they want and be free with their skills.
