This is an 8* ASSASSIN on the Toronto Blue Jays.

In our opinion this line should be a lot larger. The visitors hand the ball to confirmed "gas can" Ubaldo Jimenez (3-6, 6.21 ERA), who comes in off his best start of the year, allowing one run and three walks over five innings in a 9-1 victory over the Royals on Tuesday. Jimenez though would surrender nine hits. Jimenez had allowed between three and six earned runs in his previous five outings, so we're obviously not reading too much into one decent start. And note that Jimenez has been particularly horrible in this spot all year, going 0-4 with a deplorable 7.85 ERA on the road and an even worse 0-3 with an 11.25 ERA in all "day" games. The home side counters with Aaron Sanchez (5-1, 2.91) who went eight innings, giving up two runs off three hits while walking one and striking out 12 vs. Detroit on Tuesday, taking a one hitter into the ninth inning. Expect the Jays' ace to continue his dominance and for the home side to send Jimenez to the showers early. Play on TORONTO.
