Giants vs Blue Jays Prediction - MLB Picks 6/29/23

Blue Jays Betting Preview

Toronto enters at 44-37 after defeating San Francisco. The Blue Jays responded to being shut out with production at the plate in the Game two win, and they’ll look to win their fifth straight interleague series here. The Toronto offense is scoring 4.85 runs per Game, while batting .262, with a .329 on-base percentage. The pitching staff carries a 4.03 ERA, with a 1.25 WHIP. Bo Bichette brings a 13-Game hit streak into this contest, and he leads the AL in hits (110), with team-leading splits of .323/14/49. Vlad Guerrero Jr. had a monster series against Oakland, and he’s tied with Bichette for the team-lead in RBI at 49. George Springer has recorded multiple hits in four of the last six Games, and he’s posting a line of .265/11/37. 

Chris Bassitt (7-5, 4.16 ERA, 77 Ks) will take the bump for Toronto. The ninth-year pitcher has struggled in his last three starts, and he failed to capitalize on his revenge spot last week versus the Athletics at home, allowing four runs in five innings pitched. Bassitt opened the month with a pair of gems against the Astros and the Mets, another one of his former club, so he’s due for a bounce back outing soon, and he’ll look to close June strong here. 

San Francisco vs Toronto Trends

San Francisco is 35-42 against the spread this season, with a 37-36-4 O/U record. Toronto is 34-42 ATS this year, with a 35-38-3 over/under record.

Corey’s Free Pick

Is this where Chris Bassitt gets back on track, or will the Giants leave Canada with a pair of victories? I’d like to lean on the former here, as the Toronto starter is due for a strong outing. With Game three set to be a bullpen day for San Francisco, let’s roll with the Blue Jays bats here, as they look to win their sixth straight interleague series. Back Toronto this Thursday.
