Bartolo Colon may have his best days behind him, and not in front of him. He had a four-year stretch where he was 73-41, but over the last four years he has won just 13 games, for three different teams. His ERA over this four-year period has been 5.41, so he is pitching on reputation, not results. After not signing AJ Burnett the Blue Jays have shocked everyone. Many thought this team would tumble, but they have been great, leading the American League East with a 24-14 mark. It's the offense that has been delivering as the Jays lead all of MLB at 5.8 runs a game, while the White Sox bats have struggled for 4.1 a game, second-worst in the AL. With a declining Colon on the mound, and Jays’ bats really hot, I look for them to continue their winning ways and get the win in this one. The Blue Jays get the call.
