Homers in loss Fisher went 1-for-3 with a two-run blast in the Blue Jays' 7-2 loss versus the Yankees on Wednesday.

Impact Fisher represented the entirety of Toronto's offensive output for the contest. The 27-year-old has stepped into a sizable role with Teoscar Hernandez (oblique) sidelined. Worth monitoring as he resides in the Blue Jays' top-10 offense, Fisher has hit 4-of-10 with three walks in his past four games.

Not starting Monday Fisher isn't in Monday's lineup against the Yankees.

Drives in pair Fisher went 2-for-4 with a walk, a run scored and two RBI on Sunday against the Red Sox.

Impact Fisher delivered RBI knocks on two separate occasions to record his first multi-hit game of the season. With Teoscar Hernandez sidelined by a rib injury, Fisher could have an expanded chance for at-bats in the short term. Through 31 plate appearances this season, he's managed a .250/.387/.417 line, though he's still struck out 10 times.
