This is an 8* BLOCKBUSTER on the Toronto Blue Jays.
Setting the scene: Toronto had a quick turn around after its thrilling AL Wildcard win at home over Baltimore, but the victory has seemingly woken up a Jays' lineup which struggled for the most part in the second half of the season, as the visitors would take Game 1 of this ALDS by a decisive 10-1 margin. "Momentum" is a very real factor at this time of year and we think Toronto keeps it rolling.
Toronto: JA Happ went 20-4 this year. Note that he was particularly effective on the road, going 9-2 with 3.43 ERA.
Texas: Yu Darvish was 7-5 with a 3.41 ERA. He was 6-2 at home, behind a pedestrian 4.26 ERA.
The bottom line: Darvish showed flashes of brilliance at times this year, but he also looked pretty bad in others. Happ's amazing consistency can't be overlooked in this matchup. The Jays are playing with a very visible chip on their collective shoulders right now and we think that last night's offensive explosion is carried over into this one. Play on TORONTO.
