The Blue Jays open a series versus Moneyball
The Toronto Blue Jays are in Oakland, to open up a shot 2-game series against the A’s.
Manager John Farrell will send his ace Ricky Romero (4-0 3.64ERA) on the mound. He will face 23 year old pitcher Jarrod Parker, who has an excellent 0.96 ERA in 3 MLB starts.
Parker was named 4th best prospect in baseball by Baseball America in 2011, and he is now the top prospect in the Athletics’ organization.
Let’s just hope the Blue Jays’ hitters made their research on the kid and watch some videos, or we could have a pitching dual for that 1st game.
The action starts at 10:05 PM, Eastern time
