White Sox look extremely bad on paper. Need this not to be a trap series.

Feels like we've struggled against the White Sox for years. Need 2/3 or better here. Gotta beat the teams we should be beating.

I'm eager to see how Jaime Garcia pitches. I used to be a fan and I was excited when the Jays added him, even if he isn't the pitcher he used to be. The fanboy in me is cheering for a comeback (for a given value of comeback, as he was never exactly Cy Young caliber). I'll try to temper my expectations and hope for a sub-4 ERA and WHIP under 1.35. Anything more than that would be gravy.

If Garcia can keep his BB/9 in the low-mid 3s instead of the 4s, he should be serviceable. His Yankee numbers weren't encouraging though.
Time for the first sweep of the season.

Should be able to win 2 of the 3, I think we lose the series opener though, we've had trouble against Gonzalez in the past and I don't trust Jaime Garcia
Fulmer and especially Shields should be easy pickings though

Looks like Garcia had a little bit more trouble against right handed batters last season compared to his career normals. Fangraphs shows Garcia throwing a slider last year over a cutter all seasons prior to 2017, as well as fastball, curve ball, change up. The White Sox are all right handed batters tonight, 3 of them switch hitters.

Nice sequence against Castillo. I thought he was fried early on but he recovered nicely. Feels like a lot of pitches in just two innings though.

It’s pretty bad when you still can’t get it right after a review.
