<h3>Loaiza set to make his return when A's visit Blue Jays</h3>

<div class="pre">Oakland (63-64) at Toronto (63-62) 12:37 pm EDT</div>

TORONTO (Ticker) - The Oakland Athletics will welcome backEsteban Loaiza when they go for a sweep of their three-gameseries against the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday.

The A's have suffered numerous injuries in 2007, leading to adisappointing season. Ace starter Rich Harden and top-bullpenarms Huston Street and Justin Duchscherer joined Loaiza on thedisabled list, and various position players followed.

But Loaiza (NR), who has not pitched this season due to spasmsin his right trapezius muscle, will start against his formerteam on Wednesday. The veteran righthander, who played threeseasons for the Blue Jays from 2000-2002, went 11-9 with a 4.89ERA in 2006 and was slated as the No. 2 starter prior to theseason.


He is 5-4 with a 3.84 ERA in 13 career games - 11 starts -against Toronto.


The Blue Jays counter with their own oft-injured hurler, A.J.Burnett (7-6, 4.01). The 30-year-old righthander spent a monthand a half on the disabled list, from June 28 to August 12 witha right shoulder strain, his second stint on the DL this season.

Since his return, Burnett has allowed just three earned runs in13 2/3 innings over a pair of starts, picking up wins in both.

Dan Haren overcame two homers by Frank Thomas on Tuesday,leading the Athletics to a 6-4 victory over the Blue Jays.
