Toronto Blue Jays vs. Los Angeles Angels Prediction
I’m on the Angels in this one. The Blue Jays have been hot, but Jose Soriano has been dominant out of the gate and I’m just not interested in stepping in front of him right now even though I thinkt he Blue Jays are a team on the ascent. The Angels have themselves a stud pitcher here and I think he continues his hot start to the year. Give me the Angels.
