Celtics new signing Kolo Toure has not travelled to Dublin for Saturdays International Champions Cup clash with Barcelona, live on Sky Sports 1 HD from 5.45pm. The 35-year-old Ivory Coast international joined the Scottish champions on a free transfer after leaving Liverpool when his contract expired earlier in the summer.But with Brendan Rodgers side set to take on the La Liga giants at the weekend, Toure will not be risked ahead of Wednesdays crucial Champions League second leg with Astana. First-team coach John Kennedy, travelling with the rest of the squad to Ireland on Friday, told Sky Sports News HQ: Kolo is still working fitness-wise, he will stay back and do some extra work.Its probably a bit early for him to play on Saturday so we think if he stays at home we can get a few extra sessions in fitness-wise and we can look at that and assess that again on Monday. Leigh Griffiths scored a crucial away goal to salvage a 1-1 draw with Astana in the first leg of the third round qualifier in Kazakhstan on July 28. Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez were in high spirits as Barcelona trained ahead of the clash with Celtic Asked if Toure would play in the Champions League qualifier, Kennedy added: It depends how he will come through the next few days of training.If he shows fitness levels that we find to be good enough then he is an option but we have to just go with what we have got.Other fitness concerns for Celtic are with defenders Erik Sviatchenko and Mikael Lustig, Kennedy confirmed the pair would remain in Scotland to help their recovery. Although the game against Barcelona is of less importance, Kennedy insisted the fixture would be helpful for the squad to experience playing a team full of world class players. Highlights of Celtics 1-1 draw against Astana in Kazakhstan I think its a game where we can see where we are at in terms of performance levels playing against a top side, he said.This is where you test yourself and see exactly where you are at, and it gives you a marker. You know we have done a lot of good work pre-season against different opposition but we are coming up against a different level now.You see individually where different players are at but, more importantly, collectively as a team how we can handle playing against that calibre of team.Its a great test, it will be a good match for us and it will be a good atmosphere over there as well.

Tony Gonzalez Jersey . Ryu (8-3) allowed a run and three hits in six innings and struck out six in his 13th start. In his first 13 starts last season -- his first in the major leagues -- the left-hander was 8-5 with a 2.85 ERA. This was the ninth time this year that Ryu has allowed fewer than three earned runs, and he is 7-0 in those games.PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. -- Brett Lawrie hit his first homer of the spring and the Toronto Blue Jays held AL East rival Tampa Bay Rays to just three hits in a 5-0 victory Friday. Erik Bedard, in his final bid to earn the Rays fifth rotation spot, struggled through 5 2-3 innings. He gave up four runs over 94 pitches, walking one and striking out four. Bedard is in a three-way competition with LHP Cesar Ramos and RHP Jake Odorizzi. Manager Joe Maddon said the decision on the fifth starter will come Saturday morning. "The other guys Im competing with are really good, (so) Im sure its a hard decision to make," Bedard said. "Theyre probably going to crunch some numbers and go with their gut feeling, and well see. When you dont have a guaranteed deal, you have to compete." Bedard signed a minor league deal with the Rays in February. As recently as March 18, he said he would opt out of his contract if he doesnt make the starting rotation, but he appeared to relax his position Friday. "Competition is always fun, but I guess everyone is ready to know," Bedard said. "I feel good, and maybe the numbers dont show, but they show for Ramos, who had a very good spring. Well have to see because I dont make the decision." Bedard has a 6.88 ERA over 17 innings with 13 strikeouts and two walks, while Odorizzi has a 3.75 ERA over 12 innings with eight strikeouts and six walks. Ramos has the best numbers of the competition: a 2.63 ERA over 13 1-2 innings with 11 strikeouts and a walk. "Its not easy," Maddon said. "Theyve all represented themselves extremely really well. We just got to try and figure out how this thing fits and whos going to give us the best chance to win coming out of the gate." STARTING TIME Rays: Opening-day starter David Price threw 106 pitches in a simulated game vs. minor league hitters Friday morning. Price pitched into the eighth inning and said he didnt reach a three-ball count until the last hitter in the seventh. "Curveball was extremely sharp -- it was a good day," Price said. "It was essentially a game, minus an anthem, walkout songs and umpires. Guys were out there trying to get on base and steal.ddddddddddddIt was good." Jays: Aaron Sanchez, the teams 21-year-old top pitching prospect who hasnt been above Class A, looked sharp in his first start of the spring Friday, throwing 5 1-3 scoreless innings, while giving up just three hits, walking three and striking out two over 69 pitches. Sanchez has a perfect 0.00 ERA over 12 1-3 innings of this spring, but will probably be sent to Double-A New Hampshire. "I wont be disappointed if thats what happens," Sanchez said. "Ill go there and keep working to get better." NAVARRO BACK IN AL EAST When the Blue Jays signed journeyman catcher Dioner Navarro to a two-year, $8 million deal in December, they put faith in the former Tampa Bay Rays All-Star would be able to catch more than a 100 games, something he hasnt done since 2009. "Im 100 per cent sure I can play all season," he said. "Physically, mentally and spiritually feel ready and they obviously have faith that I can, too." Navarro will be seeing familiar faces back in the AL East, and for Maddon, thats a good and bad thing. "He helped us become the Rays," Maddon said. "As a young player, he was very calm through some stressful situations and threw out some good baserunners in some big moments. I like him. Ive always like him and really happy its worked out well for him, though not liking that hes in our division now against us." Last season, Navarro started 89 games for the Chicago Cubs, hitting 13 homers with a .300 average. He knows coming back to the AL East will be a challenge. "Everyone always talks about the (AL) East -- always have, so its no different (to be back)," Navarro said. "You have to have your A game every day." TRAINERS ROOM Rays: Juan Carlos Oviedo said he wont be ready by opening day because of his visa issues getting into the country. Oviedo said hes feeling good and expects to pitch Sunday vs. Boston in Fort Myers. . Matt Joyce received more treatment for his stiff neck, and Maddon said he was uncertain about when he will return to the lineup. . Jose Molina has not played in the previous two games, but Maddon says its not injury related. ' ' '
