The Angels’ playoffs hopes are growing fainter in a must-win situation tonight as the deficit has grown to five games in the AL West. The saving grace is having the Rangers at home for final three, so they need to make-up all three games here. After a stint in the pen, Joel Piniero had a couple of good starts before slipping his last time out vs. the A's. The Jays counter with Brett Cecil who was a victim of his own carelessness, cutting his finger in the kitchen. As a result, he missed a start and could be a bit rusty here. He hasn't been good anyway at 4-9 with a 4.37 ERA, suggesting that the Angels get some runs here. The Blue Jays have dropped Cecil's last seven starts in game two of a series, and overall they have dropped his last five. Play the Angels on the runline in this one.
