Liriano has a rough history at Tropicana Field, where he’s 1-2 with a 9.43 ERA in five starts and two relief appearances. Much of that damage came last season, with 10 runs on 11 hits over five innings in three games with the Jays and Astros.
Archer will come off the disabled list (left abdominal strain) to make his first Major League start since June 2. He pitched four hitless innings July 3 for Class A Advanced Charlotte. Archer is expected to be limited to about 75 pitches.
