Blue Jays expected to hand ball to Marco Estrada on Opening Day
Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Marco Estrada is expected to be the team's starter on Opening Day, reports Arash Madani of Sportsnet.
What It Means:
Despite being hung with a 1-2 record, Estrada was excellent in the postseason last year for Toronto, allowing a total of five earned runs over the three starts (22 1/3 innings). Following Estrada in the rotation will be J.A. Happ, Marcus Stroman, Francisco Liriano and Aaron Sanchez.
numberFire's models believe Estrada will go 11-9 this upcoming season while recording a 3.94 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 20.3 strikeout percentage over 173 2/3 innings.
