Toronto Blue Jays probable pitchers & starting lineups vs. Texas Rangers, September 11

Boy, oh boy, are these Blue Jays on a roll! Winners of eight games in their last 10, the Jays are fresh off of a three-game sweep against the Royals and now set their sights on an actual playoff contender: the Texas Rangers. At 78-64, the Rangers are third in the AL West but are also just three games behind the division lead and half a game back of the Mariners for the third Wild Card spot.

Probable starting pitchers

Chris Bassitt, the current AL leader in wins (14), is set to make his 30th start of the season for the Blue Jays. The right-hander has been such a strong presence in the Jays' rotation this year and is coming off of back-to-back starts of eight innings, including his last outing against the Oakland A's where he allowed one run with seven strikeouts. As a whole, the 35-year-old is 14-7 with a 3.69 ERA, 4.42 FIP and 115 ERA+ in just over 173 innings of work this season.

For the Rangers, Dane Dunning will be making his 31st appearance and 22nd start of the season. The former top prospect has been both solid and dreadful during certain stretches in 2023. Five starts ago, he struck out 12 Giants while allowing just one run in seven innings of work. In his last start against the Astros, he went five innings and allowed nine earned runs on 11 hits with two walks and three home runs surrendered. All told, the 28-year-old is 9-6 with a 3.88 ERA, 4.47 FIP and 114 ERA+.
