For starters, Rays vs Jays; Aybar at DH

The Rays will try to snap a five-game losing streak tonight against the Jays, and Willy Aybar is in the lineup at designated hitter.

DH Pat Burrell left Friday's game due to stiffness in his neck, and the Rays were planning on re-evaluating him today to see how serious it was.

LHP Scott Kazmir will start for the Rays tonight.

The lineup:
Bartlett, ss
Crawford, lf
Longoria, 3b
Zobrist, 2b
Pena, 1b
Aybar, dh
Kapler, rf
Navarro, c
Upton, cf
