Berrios Faces Former Ally in High-Stakes Showdown That Could Shake Blue Jays’ Season
Another 1-1 day didn’t give us much to be excited about but we were able to get at least on rung on the strikeout ladder. I continue to be better at player props this season than I’ve been at sides and totals. Eventually I’ll get on a complete roll with those and everything will be humming, but my patience is wearing a bit thin. I’ve done better with sides than totals, so maybe I need to stick to sides and player props. Let’s see what we can cook up here as the Blue Jays take on the Angels.
I have no affiliation with Toronto. I never rooted for them as a kid, I never lived there, I don’t even like their stadium or logo. They were never a team that I played with in video games. For whatever reason, though, I find myself pulling for this team to actually be good. Unfortunately, they haven’t been able to clear that hurdle the past few years. The Blue Jays are just 16-19 for the season and is an abysmal 5-11 away from Canada. They continue to invest in the team, and are in on virtually every big-name free agent every offseason, but they haven’t been able to make the playoffs. I still think this is a good roster, though. Tonight, they put Jose Berrios on the hill. Berrios has been a serviceable starter with a 1-1 record, 3.98 ERA, and a 1.38 WHIP. Berrios really only has one bad start this season. The first game of the season against the Orioles, he allowed three homers in five innings and six earned runs. Since then he has allowed 12 earned runs in 35.2 innings. Angels hitters have been pretty good against him, hitting .297 against Berrios.Â
