This is an 8* play on the Toronto Blue Jays.
After dropping the first two games of this series, we look for the hungry Blue Jays to find a way to get the job done at the end of the afternoon in the finale:
James Shields: He's 1-0 with a 1.62 ERA. After struggling for many seasons, Shields looked good to open the 2017 campaign, but was immediately placed in the DL. Shields made a successful re-hab and looked decent in three Triple-A starts, but clearly this will be a tough test for the veteran. Note that Shields was 1-8 with a 7.50 ERA on the road last year.
JA Happ: He's 1-4 with a 4.31 ERA. Happ won 20 games in 2016, but has struggled to regain his form since returning to the rotation from injury. However, Happ comes off his best start of the season, a victory over the Mariners on Sunday, allowing zero runs off six hits and a walk while striking out eight over six innings of work. Note that Happ was 11-2 with a 2.90 ERA at home last year.
The bottom line: We think the White Sox take the mental foot off the gas. We also believe that Happ has a significant advantage over the volatile Shields. When you add it all up, it makes this a price in which we have no issues at all in laying. Play on the BLUE JAYS.
