Tepesch set for Blue Jays debut vs. Yankees

TORONTO -- The Toronto Blue Jays again must go to their Triple-A Buffalo affiliate for a starter.

This time, it will be Nick Tepesch. He will get the call to replace Cesar Valdez, who was scheduled to make the start Wednesday against the New York Yankees. Valdez, 32, who also has spent most of the season at Triple-A, was placed on the disabled list Tuesday due to a right shoulder impingement.

The Yankees appear to be in a good position to win the second game of the three-game series at the Rogers Centre when they send out Masahiro Tanaka.
