KEY GAME INFORMATION
OAKLAND: 2016: 69-93, fifth place
Manager: Bob Melvin (seventh season)
Who's new? CF Rajai Davis, OF Matt Joyce, 3B Trevor Plouffe, IF Adam Rosales, RHP Santiago Casilla
Who's gone? IF/OF Danny Valencia, OF Brett Eibner, 2B Eric Sogard, 2B Tyler Ladendorf, LHP Dillon Overton, RHP Fernando Rodriguez
Projected lineup: CF Rajai Davis (.249, 12 HR, 48 RBI, 43 SB with Indians), C Stephen Vogt (.251, 14, 56), DH Ryon Healy (.305, 13, 37 in 72 games), LF Khris Davis (.247, 42, 102), RF Matt Joyce (.242, 13, 42 with Pirates) or Mark Canha (.122, 3, 6 in 16 games), SS Marcus Semien (.238, 27, 75, 10 SB), 3B Trevor Plouffe (.260, 12, 47 with Twins), 1B Yonder Alonso (.253, 7, 56), 2B Jed Lowrie (.263, 2, 27 in 87 games)
Rotation: RH Kendall Graveman (10-11, 4.11), LH Sean Manaea (7-9, 3.86), RH Jharel Cotton (2-0, 2.15 in five games), RH Andrew Triggs (1-1, 4.31), RH Jesse Hahn (2-4, 6.02 in nine games) and Frankie Montas (0-0, 2.38 in four games at Triple-A)
Key relievers: RH Ryan Madson (6-7, 3.62, 30/37 SV), LH Sean Doolittle (2-3, 3.23), RH Santiago Casilla (2-5, 3.57 with Giants), RH Ryan Dull (5-5, 2.42), RH John Axford (6-4, 3.97), RH Liam Hendriks (0-4, 3.76), LH Daniel Coulombe (3-1, 4.53)
Hot spots: Fifth Starter and Second Base. Triggs, Hahn and Montas are the top candidates to fill out the rotation. Montas, who turns 24 before the season, is the youngest and has the highest ceiling. Hahn is the only one with something resembling a track record of success in the majors. Triggs showed potential in five starts last year. Second base will belong to prospect Franklin Barreto at some point. For now the position belongs to Lowrie, who figures to become trade bait as the A's begin their annual migration toward mathematical elimination.
Outlook: It's been a long two years since the A's played postseason baseball. Rather than rebuilding outright, the A's spent their offseason stocking up on veteran position players. Their strength is a young rotation led by right-hander Sonny Gray ' another trade candidate who's coming off the worst of his four major league seasons (5-11, 5.69 ERA) and will miss time with a lat strain. If Cotton, Manaea and Triggs pick up where they left off, pitching won't be the problem. No team scored fewer runs than the A's in 2016, and it still isn't obvious that their lineup improved. Their home turf will be renamed in honor of Rickey Henderson when the Angels visit Oakland for the opener; maybe Rickey can hit leadoff, too.
TORONTO: 2016: 89-73, second place
Manager: John Gibbons (10th season)
Who's new? 1B/DH Kendrys Morales, C Jarrod Saltalamacchia, IF/OF Steve Pearce, IF Lourdes Gurriel, LHP J.P. Howell, RHP Joe Smith
Who's gone? 1B/DH Edwin Encarnacion, OF Michael Saunders, C Josh Thole, C Dioner Navarro, OF Junior Lake, RHP R.A. Dickey, LHP Brett Cecil, RHP Joaquin Benoit
Projected lineup: 2B Devon Travis (.300, 11 HR, 50 RBI), 3B Josh Donaldson (.284, 37, 99), RF Jose Bautista (.234, 22, 69), DH Kendrys Morales (.263, 30, 93 with Royals), SS Troy Tulowitzki (.254, 24, 79), C Russell Martin (.231, 20, 74), 1B Justin Smoak (.217, 14, 34), CF Kevin Pillar (.266, 7, 53, 14 SB), LF Ezequiel Carrera (.248, 6, 23)
Rotation: RH Marco Estrada (9-9, 3.48 ERA), LH J.A. Happ (20-4, 3.18), RH Marcus Stroman (9-10, 4.37), RH Aaron Sanchez (15-2, 3.00), LH Francisco Liriano (8-13, 4.69 with Pirates and Blue Jays)
Key relievers: RH Roberto Osuna (4-3, 2.68, 36/42 SV), RH Jason Grilli (6-4, 3.64), RH Joe Biagini (4-3, 3.06), LH J.P. Howell (1-1, 4.09 with Dodgers), RH Joe Smith (1-4, 3.82 with Angels), LH Aaron Loup (0-0, 5.02)
Hot spots: bullpen. The Blue Jays signed only a couple high-profile free agents (retaining Bautista, adding Morales) and brought in many lower-profile veterans mostly to compete for bullpen jobs. Howell and Smith, signed to low-risk deals, are all but guaranteed jobs. But what of Dominic Leone, Mat Latos, Mike Bolsinger, Lucas Harrell and Leonel Campos? Toronto seems to be crowd-sourcing its middle innings with low-risk, right-handed options. Up to a half-dozen pitchers could be competing for one or two jobs.
Outlook: The Blue Jays' roster is enviably balanced, albeit among the older ones in the league. Toronto led the AL in ERA last year. Their entire starting rotation returns, and their veteran bullpen is set up well to support second-year closer Osuna. Ironically, the youngest player in the Jays' starting lineup, 26-year-old Travis, has the biggest health concern of the bunch. He didn't appear in a spring training game until recently because of offseason knee surgery. Encarnacion, who was good for .270/30/100 every year, will be missed. The question now is whether Morales (33), Bautista (36), Tulowitzki (32) and Martin (34) are still close enough to their primes to power another playoff run.
PREVIEW
Blue Jays try to sweep A's
 

TORONTO -- The Toronto Blue Jays are hoping a dramatic comeback win over the Oakland Athletics on Wednesday night will lead to something better in a disappointing season.

"It sparks you, man," Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said. "We've actually played some pretty good baseball lately. Maybe it's the beginning of a nice streak. We'll see. Strange things happen in this game."

Toronto will try for the sweep of the four-game series Thursday at Rogers Centre.

The Blue Jays will start right-hander Marcus Stroman (9-5, 2.8 ERA) against Athletics left-hander Sean Manaea (8-5, 3.82).

The game Wednesday took a dramatic turn in the bottom of the ninth when Justin Smoak hit a two-run homer to tie it at 2 and Kendrys Morales followed with the game-ending solo shot.

The sudden turn of events means the Athletics (44-56) will be trying to avoid being swept instead of going for a split.

The Blue Jays (46-54) need more drama to thrust themselves back into the postseason picture.

"We've still got two months," Gibbons said. "You've just got to approach it, hey, win that day and two months from now see where we're at and live with it.

"Every team, especially in the wild card is vulnerable one way or the other. You never give up. After 162 games, if you're good enough, you get in; if you're not, you don't. It's pretty simple."

It was the second time in franchise history that the Blue Jays had won a game with back-to-back home runs. Cliff Johnson homered to tie the game and pinch hitter Buck Martinez followed with the game-ending homer off Detroit's Guillermo Hernandez on June 14, 1986. The Blue Jays won 6-5.

"Everything is possible. We're not that far from the wild-card position," Morales said. "If we can put a good winning streak together and we keep playing well, anything can happen."

The Athletics have lost seven of their past nine games overall and 11 of their past 12 at Rogers Centre.

"I think any time you lose, it's tough," A's right fielder Matt Joyce said. "This has not been a great season for us. We've got a lot of things to figure out. There are a lot of questions to answer, a lot of problems to figure out. Right now, we've still got over two months left in the season and we've got to find a way to make some adjustments and figure something out.

"The guys in here, they work hard. We've got a lot of young guys. There's been a lot of mistakes along the way that have been made that kind of shot ourselves in the foot. And we just have to play kind of cleaner baseball and make some adjustments. ... We have to get really, really hot and do some things we haven't done all year."

Stroman has a 0.63 ERA and an opponents' batting average of .196 over his past two starts, July 17-22, but has no decisions to show for it.

He will be trying for his first win since July 8.

The Blue Jays are 1-1 in Stroman's past two starts as he has allowed 10 hits in 14 1/3 innings.

He is 0-0 with a 4.63 ERA in two career starts against Oakland.

Manaea is 7-2 with a 3.17 ERA over his past 12 starts. He was 1-3 with a 5.52 ERA in his first three starts.

He is 4-0 with a 3.19 ERA in five starts against AL East teams this season and is 4-5 with a 4.08 ERA against all other teams.

He is coming off a no-decision Saturday in Oakland's 6-5 loss to the New York Mets; he gave up 10 hits, one walk and four runs in 5 2/3 innings. He was the winning pitcher against the Blue Jays on June 5 at Oakland, a 5-3 A's victory, when he allowed four hits, three walks and two runs while striking out seven in six innings.

In two career outings (one start) against Toronto, he is 1-0 with a 3.27 ERA.
