The last time the Blue Jays were in the Cleveland, they dropped the first two games of the American League Championship Series by a combined score of 4-1. Good times.

News and Scuttlebutt

Because 2017, Aaron Sanchez seems to be headed back to the disabled list. At this point, it’s not even about the rest of the season for Sanchez, the main worry is whether or not he’ll be fine for the 2018 season. If he does land on the DL, it’ll be his fourth trip of the season for the same issue.
In better news, Joe Smith will be back tomorrow. They’re giving him an extra day of rest, and with the scuffling Marco Estrada on the mound, they likely want to have Cesar Valdez available to pitch multiple innings if things go sour.
