Why These Picks?
TO Blue Jays v PIT Pirates: Blue Jays starter Max Scherzer (3.83 ERA) has allowed a mere 4 runs across his last 3 starts, friends (but at least 1 HR in each of his last 5 outings, prop bettors…) And with Mitch Keller (4.13 ERA) on the mound for Pittsburgh, I think this is going to be a rough game for the Pirates. Keller has allowed 13 runs and 21 hits over his last 3 starts – the Toronto offense should have next to no issue running up a score here. With O’Neil Cruz out of the Pittsburgh lineup today, I’ll take the Blue Jays to bag at least 5 instead of the overall game total (...though, don't be surprised if Toronto cashes both on their own!)
MIL Brewers v CHI Cubs: Brewers starter Brandon Woodruff (2.06 ERA) is a flawless 4-0, and I'll level with you: Jameson Taillon (4.44 ERA) is not my favourite Cubs starter. In addition, Chicago's offense hasn't exactly been inspiring lately (they haven't bagged more than 4 runs in their last 6 games...) My money's on the Brewers to bag a win here.
