The big bats in Texas are a thing of the past. This once offense-only team has become a lot more pitching oriented. The Blue Jays are in desperate need of pitching, and have gotten a huge response from Mark Buehrle. Buehrle has had an outstanding career, but may be out for his best in 2014, as he is 7-1 with a 2.04 ERA on the season. Buehrle is no stranger to success vs. the Texas Rangers with career numbers of 13-5 with an ERA of 3.14. Robbie Ross has struggled this season, but he should take the mound with confidence against Toronto, as he has worked 7.1 innings against them in five career relief appearances without yielding a run. The Jays are 18-5-1 to the UNDER in Buehrle's last 24 starts on regular four days rest. The UNDER has prevailed in each of the last five in this series as well. Play on the UNDER.
