Toronto Blue Jays DFS SPIN
Daulton Varsho went 2-for-5 with a homer, two RBI, and a stolen base in the Blue Jays win in extra innings over the Orioles. Varsho tagged Orioles starter Grayson Rodriguez in the second inning with a 416-foot (107.7 EV) two-run homer that gave the Blue Jays a one-run lead. He picked up his 15th steal in the eighth inning, but Toronto couldn’t bring him around to score. Varsho’s first season with the Blue Jays has been a disappointment from an offensive perspective, but he has turned it around recently, hitting .270/.357/.514 in his last 15 games.
Baltimore Orioles DFS SPIN
Grayson Rodriguez was charged with three runs over six innings on Tuesday in a no-decision against the Blue Jays. Rodriguez struck out five and walked two on his way to his fourth quality start in his last five outings. Daulton Varsho smoked a two-run homer in the second inning before Kevin Kiermaier roped a run-scoring double in the fourth inning. The 23-year-old didn’t have his typical whiff induing arsenal as he generated just 11 swinging strikes on 94 pitches thrown. He faces the White Sox at home in Baltimore.

Blue Jays vs. Orioles MLB BETTING PREDICTION
Give me Toronto. Gausman is 2-2 with a 4.08 ERA and 4.45 FIP over his last five starts (28 2/3 innings), which gives the Blue Jays an advantage in the pitching matchup tonight seeing as how Flaherty has posted a 1-2 record with a 7.07 ERA and a 4.55 FIP over his three starts with Baltimore. The Blue Jays’ bullpen has also been lights out since the start of August, posting a collective ERA of 2.37 and a FIP of 3.59. With both offenses being slightly below average over the past two weeks, that’s essentially a wash.
MLB BETTING PREDICTION: TORONTO BLUE JAYS -110
