Let's just keep riding the gravy train with the Toronto Blue Jays. Clearly, something is working as they look for the sweep of the New York Yankees on Thursday night. Chris Bassitt can't be any worse than he was in Boston, and Clarke Schmidt is coming off a similar outing. Give me the team with momentum at a plus money price.
