Summary
For Game 2 of the three-game series, the Toronto Blue Jays turn to José Soriano with their playoff hopes hanging in the balance after a disastrous 7-1 loss to the Texas Rangers in the series opener. Dylan Cease struggled badly in Game 1, lasting just 2.2 innings while walking six batters. His command and velocity were concerns throughout the outing, leading to questions about whether something could be bothering the Blue Jays’ Cy Young candidate. Toronto also continued to struggle offensively with runners in scoring position, going just 1-for-6 in those situations, while the Rangers took advantage of Toronto’s pitching and defensive mistakes to pull away. Now, José Soriano gets the ball looking to keep the Blue Jays alive. Soriano was dominant in his previous start against the Detroit Tigers, carrying a no-hitter into the seventh inning before ultimately allowing four runs in a 6-5 Toronto loss. Standing across from him will be Canadian right-hander Cal Quantrill, who has been one of the Rangers’ standout stories this season. Quantrill enters the matchup with a 2.90 ERA over 108.2 innings. With the Rangers surging and Toronto desperately needing a win, can Soriano deliver a huge performance and keep the Blue Jays’ postseason hopes alive? Or will Texas continue its strong play and put Toronto in an even deeper hole in the American League Wild Card race? Watch the Toronto Blue Jays vs. Texas Rangers Game 2 preview, including José Soriano vs. Cal Quantrill, Dylan Cease’s concerning start, Toronto’s offensive struggles, the Blue Jays’ playoff hopes, the Rangers’ red-hot form and everything you need to know ahead of tonight’s crucial matchup.
