Oakland has found all sorts of ways of winning of late. Yesterday they came back from an eight run deficit to win and they are now 15-4 in August (league best). Brad Halsey takes the mound to try to keep the winning going. He has pitched below average lately but has a respectable 3-3 record and 4.50 ERA overall. AJ Burnett has done very well for the Blue Jays, making them the favorite here. But I like Oakland's momentum and offense right now. They are scoring 6.3 runs per game over their past seven while Toronto is getting just 4.9. The Jays are 1-8 after a high scoring game this season (10+ runs). Oakland is hot right now.
