This is a 10* RL BK on the Jays.

I had a play on the Jays on the runline yesterday, and didn't even need the 1.5 runs of insurance. I may not need it today either.

Either way, in a contest that I see being decided late, or even in extras, I'm going to lay the price again for Toronto on the runline option.

I'm not overreacting to Chris Bassitt's (0-1, 7.20 ERA) start in Tampa for the Jays. He gave up a grand slam is what did the damage. He had a great spring though. He's susceptible to giving up the long-ball, but he catches the Astros at the "right time."

Houston turns to Christian Javier, who went six shutout innings in a no-decision vs. the Yanks in his opener. He only forced eight whiffs though. I'll caution in backing Javier to quickly, as he posted a very pedestrian 4.56 ERA last year.

For all the reasons listed above, the play is TORONTO on the runline option.

Good luck, NP
