Dave Price

Toronto Blue Jays +164

Rarely will you ever get the Toronto Blue Jays as this big of underdogs in any game. They are one of the best teams in baseball and certainly worth a shot at this price Sunday. Marcus Stroman has gotten better here down the stretch, going 1-1 with a 2.45 ERA and 0.982 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Stroman has posted a 1.35 ERA in his lone lifetime start vs. Cleveland, giving up only 1 earned runs in 6 2/3 innings on July 1 of this season. Corey Kluber is 1-3 with a 6.14 ERA and 1.727 WHIP in 4 lifetime starts vs. the Blue Jays.

Yankees -125

There is nothing positive really to be said for the Angels right now. This team is fading fast and just can’t generate any runs. Jhoulys Chacin has been pretty weak this year for the Angels and I just don’t like their chances to break their slump against a Yankees team fighting for a wild card slot.

Blue Jays +150

In major LINEUP news Toronto will have slugger Josh Donaldson in the lineup for the first time since he suffered a jammed thumb back on Wednesday. The Blue Jays also just optioned one of the American League's best pitchers Aaron Sanchez to the minors (innings limit) and will not reappear until the final day of this month. Without their ERA leader for the moment Toronto desperately needs Marcus Stroman to regain his form and his lone start against Cleveland (July 1st) turned into an epic 19 inning affair where the Tribe came out on top thus setting up a unique "revenge" spot.
