Games of the Day
The Blue Jays and Yankees face each other in New York tonight, with the Blue Jays once again needing wins to climb back in the division and wild card races. They took three out of four against the Yankees in Toronto recently, but then went 2-5 vs. Seattle and Oakland while the Yankees took five out of six from Texas and Tampa Bay. It will be a battle of oft-injured free agents as A.J. Burnett faces Jaret Wright. With both teams getting a day off yesterday, the bullpens should be rested.
The pitching matchup of the day is in Cincinnati as Aaron Sele takes on Bronson Arroyo. Sele's ERA is rising as the year goes on. He was hit for a 6.17 mark in July. Arroyo suffered his first winless month of the year in July, going 0-3 with a 5.45 ERA. It was the home runs, as 8 of the 20 he's allowed came during the month.
Enjoy!
