Blue Jays @ Guardians Over 8.5

(June 22, 2024) - A few of the top cappers are all over this one.

You wouldn't necessarily look to the Over in this series as only three games have resulted in more than 8.5 runs scored.  And the total has since moved to 9.

Jose Berrios for Toronto is 6-5 with a 3.13 ERA.  He's allowed 30 hits in 94 at bats versus these Guardians with 18 RBI's and 5 home runs.

Berrios allowed four runs in six innings and got the win in the Blue Jays’ 7-4 victory over the Guardians on Sunday.

Ben Lively is 6-3 with a 3.02 ERA. 

Lively allowed four runs in four innings and got the loss against the Blue Jays on Sunday.  Lively has a 1.90 ERA at home.

Over and Guardians here.

Blue Jays @ Brewers (Wednesday)

(June 12, 2024) - Tobias Myers was superb his last start for the Brewers, throwing eight shutout innings and being credited with the win in his team's 10-0 victory over the Tigers on Friday.  Whether he can keep up the momentum remains to be seen.

We do know that the top cappers are loving Toronto this day courtesy of Chris Bassitt, who's pitched well against this Milwaukee roster.

In fact, Bassitt has allowed just 6 hits in 38 at bats versus the Brewers roster with one RBI (.158).  He's recorded 14 scoreless innings against them. 

Toronto is also playing decent enough of late.

Blue Jays Power Rankings

(June 12, 2024) - "Alek Manoah's nightmare two-year stretch took another turn for the worse when he left his start last Wednesday with elbow trouble. The right-hander was placed on the IL with a UCL sprain after undergoing an MRI and is slated to seek a second opinion on the elbow, with no word on the results yet. Manoah, 26, had rebounded from a dreadful 2023 season in which he pitched to a 5.87 ERA in 19 starts and was demoted to the minors after finishing third in AL Cy Young Award voting in 2022. Manoah has a 3.70 ERA in five starts this season following a stint in the minors. Whether he makes a sixth start remains to be seen." -- Jorege Castillo, ESPN.

They have this club ranked at No. 22.
