Blue Jays Look To Retain Top Seed
The Blue Jays are coming off a loss on Saturday versus the Yankees with a final score of 3-1. This loss would break up a three-game win streak the Blue Jays had amassed in games prior. Toronto currently leads the top of the American League but the Yankees are quick on their tail as the Yankees have a winning percentage of .556 to the Blue Jays’ .577.
Toronto has been able to hold their top spot for most of the season thanks to their elite hitting ranking fourth overall in runs and at the top of the league in batting average at .269 and on base percentage at .338.

Yankees Close In On Top Of Division
The Yankees picked up a much-needed win on Saturday versus the Blue Jays with a final score of 3-1. The Yankees have been unable to have a consecutive loss or win in the last six games. New York is in the hunt for the top of their division as they hold the top wild card position in the American League.
The Yankees have gotten as far as they have this season thanks to their batting which leads the league in runs and is 13th in batting average at .250. While their batting average is not too special, it is their slugging which has generated so many runs. The Yankees lead the league in home runs thanks to their slugging percentage of .455 and on base percentage of .330 (4th). New York has found a great system to either be walked on base or find consistent enough home runs to profit on those on base from previous at bats.
Left-handed pitcher Max Fried will be starting for the Yankees on Sunday.
Max Fried:
- has a 15-5 record with an ERA of 2.98 and 159 strikeouts in 28 appearances this season.
- has a 3-1 record with an ERA of 2.48 and 23 strikeouts in 6 appearances against the Blue Jays in his career.
Toronto Blue Jays vs. New York Yankees Pick
Money Line Pick for Toronto Blue Jays vs. New York Yankees
- Yankees Money Line (-148) (3 units)
Max Scherzer has a record of 0-3 with an ERA of 3.58 and 28 strikeouts in four appearances in his last four games against the Yankees on the road. The Yankees have a record of 7-3 in their last ten games against the Blue Jays at home. While the Blue Jays are motivated in this game to grab a win, I would not count out the determination of the Yankees going into this game. With this win the Yankees take a huge step forward in overtaking the Blue Jays in the standings and given their history I believe they will grab the much needed series win.
Over/Under Pick for Toronto Blue Jays vs New York Yankees
- Over 8.5 (-115 ) (4 units)
The Yankees have an over/under record of 6-3-1 in their last ten games versus the Blue Jays. The Blue Jays have an over/under record of 7-3 in their last ten games. Both of these teams have relied heavily on their offense this season and I expect that to continue in this matchup. Max Scherzer is going to struggle much like he has in the past against the Yankees on the road however Max Fried has equally struggled with the Yankees against Toronto. Max Fried is 1-1 with an ERA of 4.15 and 8 strikeouts in three appearances for the Yankees against the Blue Jays in his career. This is going to be a high scoring game out of the get go and because of that I have to take the over.
