T.M. Selection: Toronto Blue Jays -1.5.

I like the Toronto Blue Jays runline in this game against the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday. The Blue Jays have looked really good in their games lately winning 3/4 of their previous 4 games. They have been putting up a ton of runs in these games too. They have won 8/12 of their previous 12 games and all 8 of those games they won were by 2+ runs. Their bats are getting hot and I think this is a good time to jump on the Blue Jays while they are still on this run. They have looked great in their 2 most recent road series' and I think they are only going to explode on offense starting a homestand here against what is the worst team in their division. They just pounded the Orioles 11-1 in the 1st game of this series too and I expect them to repeat that effort here. Jordan Lyles (3-5, 4.97 ERA) is up for the Orioles here and he has been struggling in his starts this year. Lyles hasn't been pitching well all year and he has really been bad lately, giving up 3+ runs in 4 starts in a row now and he has given up 10 runs total in his 2 most recent starts alone. Yusei Kikuchi (2-2, 4.44 ERA) is up for the Blue Jays here and he hasn't looked great in his 2 most recent starts but he still hasn't been as bad as Lyles has been lately and Kikuchi has been pitching much better all year too. Kikuchi wasn't great early on but he has been improving and I think he is trending in the right direction here. I expect Lyles to continue pitching the way he has been and I see the Blue Jays putting up another big offensive performance in this game. I like the Blue Jays runline here.

T.M. Prediction: 7-2 Blue Jays.
