I guess Sportsnet roster is wrong, as KJ is still there:

And the lineup is fairly close to what most are predicting. Yes, Rasmus has outfield capabilities, but Bonifacio is faster and also is decent defensively. I can see them trying to go a speed lineup and that could put Rasmus as a DH at times.
JPA/Buck are both righties so not seeing a LHP/RHP platoon but they obv split time bc they're likely the 2 catchers
I could've said with various pitchers otherwise, as each pitcher will have a comfort level. But they will split a fair amount unless one is traded...
Oh and Gose isn't a 4th outfielder/pinch runner, he and Sierra will both be playing everyday in Buffalo unless there is another trade/injury
I could see Gose being on the roster a fair bit given an injury to an outfielder.
