Scouting Report:
Blue Jays: Chacin was limited to 17 starts a year ago due to an elbow injury. Still, the left-hander won nine games and improved to 23-14 in his career as a starter for Toronto. Chacin is 0-0 with a 3.78 ERA in three career starts versus Detroit. In his only career start at Comerica Park, the southpaw gave up two runs over seven innings. Tigers: Verlander's sophomore season begins after racking up 17 wins and the American League Rookie of the Year award last year. He started off last season with seven scoreless innings at Texas, the first of seven victories in his first 10 starts to take the national spotlight. He tired down the stretch last year as his fastball lost its pop, but the Tigers believe a winter of rest should allow him to hold up for the long haul. He has never faced the Blue Jays.

DETROIT -- Thursday afternoon's Blue Jays game against the Tigers has been postponed due to poor weather conditions. Temperatures in Detroit dipped below freezing and the forecast called for snow. The contest was rescheduled for 7:05 p.m. ET on Sept. 10, when Toronto and Detroit previously shared an off-day. The only other season series between the clubs is a four-game set on April 12-15 in Toronto. As a result of the postponement, the Jays had to shift the pitching rotation around. Left-hander Gustavo Chacin, who was scheduled to take the mound on Thursday, will start on Friday in the opener of a three-game road series against Tampa Bay. Right-handers Tomo Ohka and Roy Halladay will start against the Devil Rays on Saturday and Sunday, respectively. After the weekend set in Florida, Toronto will kick off its first homestand with a three-game series against Kansas City. Jays right-hander A.J. Burnett will start in the home opener on Monday, followed by righty Josh Towers on Tuesday and Chacin on Wednesday.
