My 8* ROUND-TRIPPER is on the Toronto Blue Jays at 7:05 EST. The Nats are 1-2 after avoiding the sweep at home by the Phillies, winning 5-1 on Sunday. Josh Bell homered in the victory. But now I believe Washington will struggle here on the road. The visitors hand the ball to Michael Sorkoka, who is making his debut for the Nationals. Soroka was the man back in 2019, finishing 13-4 with a 2.68 ERA, but last year he struggled by going 0-10 with a 4.74 ERA in 25 games. Toronto went 2-2 in its opening series with the Orioles. That included a 3-1 victory on Sunday. The home side counters with Bowden Francis, who was 8-5 with a 3.30 ERA and 0.93 WHIP last year. Francis will be hoping that Bo Bichette can stay hot, as he enters with a .467 batting average and has already gone yard twice and driven in four runs. All things considered, I believe Toronto is well worth the price of admission in this spot. Lay the price with confidence, Jays roll!
