Officially moved off roster
Santander (back) was removed from the Blue Jays' ALCS roster due to injury Thursday.
Análise
Santander was originally scratched from the lineup for Game 2 of the ALCS, though he managed to start in Game 3. The back issue has apparently persisted, with Joey Loperfido now taking Santander's place on the roster. If the Blue Jays advance to the World Series, Santander will be ineligible to play.

Expected to depart ALCS roster
The Blue Jays plan to remove Santander (back) from their ALCS roster, Mitch Bannon of The Athletic reports.
Análise
Santander was scratched from the lineup ahead of Game 2 due to lower-back tightness, and renewed soreness will keep him from playing in Game 4 on Thursday as well. The Blue Jays are still in the process of determining the severity of the outfielder's injury, but the expectation is that he will be replaced on the postseason roster. His removal would also render him ineligible to play in the World Series, should Toronto advance, effectively ending his season.

Back on bench for Game 4
Santander isn't in the lineup for Game 4 of the ALCS against the Mariners on Thursday.
Análise
Santander rejoined the starting nine Wednesday after sitting out Game 2 due to lower-back tightness, but he'll now return to the bench Thursday after experiencing renewed stiffness in his back, per Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca. Addison Barger will move to the outfield as a result, putting Ernie Clement at the hot corner and Isiah Kiner-Falefa at second base.

Returns to lineup for Game 3
Santander (back) will start in right field and bat cleanup in Wednesday's Game 3 of the ALCS versus the Mariners.
Análise
Santander had to be scratched from the Game 2 lineup due to lower-back tightness, but he's feeling well enough to return to action Wednesday as the series moves to Seattle. The 30-year-old is 3-for-13 with two RBI and a 0:4 BB:K in four games this postseason. Santander hadn't previously hit higher than seventh in those four contests, but the Blue Jays are changing up their batting order a bit as they look to jumpstart the offense.

Scratched with lower-back tightness
Santander was scratched from the lineup for Monday's ALCS Game 2 versus the Mariners due to lower-back tightness, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Análise
Santander had been slated to start in left field and bat seventh, but a back issue will ultimately prevent him from doing so. It's not clear whether he will be available off the bench. Davis Schneider will enter the lineup as the left fielder and will hit eighth.
