Calgary native Mike Soroka will get the start in Game 1 of the series.

Soroka has allowed one earned run or less in three of his four career starts.

Jaime Garcia (2018: 12 GS, 2-5 W-L, 20.5 K%, 10.7 BB%, 5.71 ERA, 5.06 FIP, 4.79 xFIP)

The Blue Jays will counter with a familiar face in left handed Jaime Garcia who spent part of last season in Atlanta before being dealt at the trade deadline.

Garcia has had an inconsistent season for the Blue Jays to say the least alternating good and bad outings. He allowed four hits and four runs over five innings in his last start against Tampa Bay.
