The Toronto Blue Jays are one of the hottest teams in baseball right now. They are winning games without two of their top veteran players.

The Blue Jays have been one of baseball's hottest teams in June and the club could get some key contributors back from injury soon.

Toronto has remained without veteran starting pitcher Max Scherzer, who has been working his way back from a thumb injury. Scherzer, an eight-time All-Star, joined the Blue Jays on a one-year, $15.5 million contract but has been experiencing a tough start to life after exiting his debut game on March 29 due to a right thumb inflammation.

Alejandro Kirk has been on fire in June, and we expect the Jays catcher to keep it rolling in the City of Brotherly Love.
