#42 - Toronto Blue Jays (17-24) at San Francisco Giants (17-24)



Wednesday, May 15, 2019 | 3:45 pm
Oracle Park | San Francisco, CA

Edwin Jackson (first start of season) vs. Shaun Anderson (MLB debut)


PREAMBLE:

Vlad. Vlad. VLAD.

After a prodigious display of bat speed + power from Vladimir Guerrero Jr. in his big breakout performance last night, the Blue Jays look to sweep this two-game mini-series and exact revenge for being swept by the Giants 3 weeks ago.

The pitching matchup is between two chaps making their first MLB starts of the season, except it'll be a record 14th team that Edwin Jackson is making an appearance with, while his counterpart Shaun Anderson is making his debut as a major-leaguer.


NOTES:

Vlad. Vlad. Vlad.  That is all.

Thomas Pannone has been optioned to Buffalo to make room for Edwin Jackson on the 25-man roster.  Matt Shoemaker has been moved to the 60-day IL to make room on the 40-man.


BLUE JAYS HISTORY:

Put on hold for today since it's a matinee and I'm at work.
