Notes On The Toronto Blue Jays

In 2020, Steven Matz was a pitcher for the New York Mets. He had a 0-5 record and an ERA of 9.68. The Blue Jays took a chance on him and he has been doing better with the Blue Jays. In his last game, he pitched for 5.2 innings and gave up 2 runs to win the game.The Blue Jays had a lot of momentum before their games with Tampa Bay. But after the scouting report incident and a blowout in the final game, Jays fans might be worried that they have lost all of their momentum. Toronto is one half-game behind the Yankees for the second wild-card spot and they play New York soon.

George Springer has not been doing very well recently. He only has two hits in his last 23 at-bats. This is not how he usually does against Pineda. George Springer usually does better, but this year he’s had some injuries and hasn’t homered in 10 games so far.

Bo Bichette, who is 23 years old, has hit 26 home runs and 98 RBIs this season. He has also stolen 23 bases while batting .292. Bo Bichette does not always get the attention that he deserves because there are other players in the lineup with more power or speed.

Notes On The Minnesota Twins

Michael Pineda is a pitcher for Minnesota. He is 32 years old. He has pitched in 3 seasons with the team and has been very good. This year, his record is 7-8 but he still has had a few starts where he was really good like last game when he only gave up one run in 5 innings.

The Twins are the worst team in the AL Central. They have 67 wins and 3rd-worst in baseball. They’ve given up 169 more runs than us and only 2 teams have given up more.Josh Donaldson has three home runs against Matz in only 13 at-bats. Last week, he had two home runs against his old team in Toronto.

Polanco has hit a lot of home runs and has also given 100 RBIs this year. He did most of his work at home, but he did some work on the road. That is why he hit 21 home runs on the road.

Pick & Prediction:UNDER 9.5

Toronto scored a lot of runs in Tampa and Minnesota gave up a lot of runs. I thought it would be an UNDER but Toronto’s bats were quiet. They may come back later in the series. Take the UNDER 9.5 today and wait on the Blue Jays bats to come around later in the series.
