FOX Sports has released the schedule for their Saturday games, and you can read the press release here. On June 8, you might get one of Padres/Rockies or Astros/Royals, for example, so maybe set your DVR now.

I’m assuming the Blue Jays’ snub is some sort of Canada thing, where FOX can’t black out the games in a different country ... heck, I don’t know. But it would be weird if FOX just forgot about them, especially considering their offseason.
And to answer your question: Five Yankees and Red Sox games. You know you were worried.
