KEY GAME INFORMATION
TORONTO: TORONTO (AP) - All winter long, the Blue Jays' primary concern was upgrading the starting pitching. The biggest story in Toronto this spring, though, is the one about the free agent arm that got away.
After months of inaction, the Blue Jays thought they'd landed right-hander Ervin Santana on a one-year deal in early March. But when injury concerns flared up in Atlanta, Santana signed a similar deal with the Braves instead.
''I think it's pretty obvious we were involved, it didn't work out. I'm trying to take the high road here,'' general manager Alex Anthopoulos said after Santana turned him down, saying he'd rather pitch in a spacious National League park than face AL East foes in Toronto's hitter-friendly dome.
Anthopoulos, who'd previously come ''extremely close'' to acquiring a starter through trade, must now start the season with almost the same staff he took north last year. Right-handed knuckleballer R.A. Dickey, the 2012 NL Cy Young winner, will be the opening-day starter again, while left-hander Mark Buehrle gets the third slot.
But none of the other three leading contenders, right-handers Brandon Morrow and Drew Hutchison, and left-hander J.A. Happ, have ever pitched 200 innings, and all three are coming off injuries. Morrow was limited to 10 starts last year by a nerve problem in his forearm, Hutchison hasn't pitched in the majors since elbow surgery in 2012, and Happ missed most of 2013 after being hit in the head by a line drive. Happ dimmed his own chances with an awful spring.
Santana, who has topped the 200-inning mark five times, would have given the Blue Jays valuable depth. Without him, there's more chance they'll need starts from touted but untested youngsters like Kyle Drabek, Sean Nolin, and Marcus Stroman.
Still, a confident Dickey insisted Santana would have been more ''bonus'' than ''necessity'' to Toronto. ''I feel like we have what we need,'' he said.
BALTIMORE: BALTIMORE (AP) - The transformation of the Baltimore Orioles clubhouse under manager Buck Showalter is complete.
No longer do the Orioles hope to win. They expect it.
When Showalter took over in July 2010, he inherited a team with the worst record in the majors. Having gone without a winning season since 1997, Baltimore could only hope Showalter's knack for orchestrating quick turnarounds would take hold in a town that had switched its allegiance from baseball to football.
By 2012, the Orioles were back. Baltimore won 93 games, beat Texas in the wild-card matchup and took the New York Yankees to the limit before falling in the AL division series.
After missing the postseason last year, the Orioles are poised for a return. They maintained the nucleus of a team that went 85-77 and was in contention to the final week, then added right-handed starter Ubaldo Jimenez and slugger Nelson Cruz to an already potent lineup that led the majors in home runs in 2013.
''When you have talent, you have confidence,'' right fielder Nick Markakis said. ''Put them together and good things usually happen. We've got that right now. We know we have a good team and we're going to roll with it.''
Although Jimenez and Cruz didn't come aboard until after the start of spring training, Showalter never wavered in his belief that the Orioles would challenge the defending champion Boston Red Sox and retooled Yankees in the AL East.
''I felt that way whether or not we added Nelson and Jimenez,'' he said. ''That's a poor reflection on me and my staff if we thought we needed more to win.''

*Blue Jays-Orioles Preview* ===========================

By JON PALMIERI STATS Editor

Toronto (77-71) at Baltimore (89-60), 7:05 p.m. EDT

Winning the AL East has been an almost foregone conclusion for weeks now for the Baltimore Orioles, but a title 17 years in the making would still make for a very memorable night at Camden Yards.

The Orioles can take the first step toward what they hope will be a long postseason road by clinching a division title Tuesday night against the Toronto Blue Jays.

Few could've predicted that the Orioles would follow their most recent AL East title in 1997 with 14 consecutive losing seasons. They finally ended that drought with 93 wins and a wild card in 2012 before failing to reach the playoffs with an 85-77 mark last year.

After hovering around .500 for the first three months this season, Baltimore (90-60) headed into the All-Star break with 10 wins in 13 games and never looked back. The Orioles took over first place in the East for good July 5 and are 48-21 since June 30, trailing only the Los Angeles Angels for baseball's best record in that span.

With Monday's 5-2 victory over Toronto, the Orioles reduced their magic number to one and won for the eighth time in nine games. Ryan Flaherty hit a two-run homer to back Wei-Yin Chen's 16th win and Baltimore improved to 41-23 against the East.

"It's pretty special to come in here (Tuesday) and have a chance to do that," manager Buck Showalter said. "I've had a lot of sleepless nights for a lot of reasons, but tonight I look forward to losing that sleep. It's been a long, hard grind to have that opportunity, and I'm looking forward to the chance to see our guys get a chance."

With their next five games at Camden Yards, the Orioles could clinch a division title at home for the first time since 1969.

"We'll enjoy tonight and then come out tomorrow and see what happens," catcher Caleb Joseph said. "If we don't win, then go back and strap it back on and win the next day."

Wrapping up the division on their first attempt will be a big challenge for the Orioles with Drew Hutchison (10-11, 4.36 ERA) on the mound for the Blue Jays.

The right-hander is 3-0 with a 1.13 ERA in six career starts against Baltimore and has allowed only three runs over 27 2-3 innings while walking four and striking out 25 in four meetings this year.

Hutchison has been especially tough on Nelson Cruz (2 for 15), Adam Jones (3 for 18) and J.J. Hardy (3 for 16).

He improved to 2-0 with a 1.78 ERA in his last four starts with an 11-1 win over the Cubs on Wednesday. Hutchison matched a career high with 10 strikeouts and allowed one run and four hits over 6 1-3 innings.

The Blue Jays (77-72) have lost three of four to further damage their already faint wild-card chances.

"We've got a very slim outside shot to get to the playoffs, but we're fighting every night to try to win games," manager John Gibbons said.

With Friday's doubleheader forcing the Orioles to find an extra starter, Ubaldo Jimenez (4-9, 4.96) will make his first start in a month.

Since he was removed from the rotation, the right-hander has only made three relief appearances since his last start Aug. 16. This will be his first game since allowing three runs and three walks while recording one out Aug. 31 in a 12-8 win over Minnesota.

Jimenez is 0-2 with a 5.56 ERA in two starts this season against the Blue Jays. He's walked seven and surrendered three homers in 11 1-3 innings in those games.

Colby Rasmus has one of those home runs and is 10 for 27 with five doubles in his career against Jimenez.
