San Francisco Giants vs. Toronto Blue Jays Preview

The Blue Jays have been a major disappointment so far this season, as many expected them to win the AL East.

In their last games the Giants beat the Atlanta Braves 5-1 and the Blue Jays beat the Boston Red Sox 12-4.

On the season the Giants have an Over/Under record of 21-16 and they have a run-line W/L record of 15-23 and the Blue Jays have an Over/Under record of 21-17 and they have a run-line W/L record of 17-22.

This season the Blue Jays are 7-12 at home and the Giants are 8-8 on the road.

The Giants have won 8 of their last 11 games facing the Blue Jays.

2 former Cy Young winners face each other tonight with Barry Zito going for the Giants and R.A. Dickey going for the Blue Jays.

Zito (3-1 2.75) had a solid outing in his last start, but he got no run support giving up only 1 earned run in 7 innings in a no-decision facing the Philadelphia Phillies. [dfads params=’groups=10&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]

Dickey (2-5 5.06 ERA) has struggled this season, but also had a solid start in his last outing giving up 2 earned runs in 6 innings in a no-decision against the Tampa Bay Rays.

Last season Melky Cabrera played for the Giants and was a key part to their early season success before being banned for 50 games positive testosterone test. He signed in the off-season with the Blue Jays and after a slow start he is hitting .353 in his last 8 games.

Zito is 5-12 with a 6.75 ERA in 17 interleague starts.

This season Dickey has pitched better on the road than at home, as in Toronto he has an ERA of 6.75 and on the road his ERA is 3.55.

In some betting trends for this interleague game the Giants are 4-1 in their last 5 games, 2 in Zito’s last 9 road starts, and they have an Over record of 4-1 in their last 5 road games.

The Blue Jays are 1-4 in their last 5 home games, 0-4 in Dickey’s last 4 starts, and they have an Over record of 7-2 in their last 9 games.

Jason’s Pick: Going with the Giants in this one, as I think Zito will have another strong start while Dickey will struggle.

Los Angeles

They focused on offense in bringing in Josh Hamilton from Texas and that move hasn’t really borne much fruit.

They also elected to go with a new cast of starting pitchers at the back end of the rotation and even though it is not all their fault the team ERA is the second worst in the league. Slow start or long term indicator? We will have to wait to see.

L.A. starter Garrett Richards has been kicking around as a prospect with the Angels for a while but it looks like he might be finally getting a chance. He started the season in the pen but he has made two starts now, including a very sharp outing in shutting out Detroit in which he yielded just 2 hits over 7 innings.

The Angels have a pretty good track record grooming Major League pitching so it may finally be his time.

Seattle

The American League West is going to be a tough division. But it is going to be especially tough if the Mariners don’t figure out a way to beat the Astros. After yesterday’s loss they are 2-4 against Houston, contributing to their 6-11 record against division foes so far.

They can try and improve on that this weekend as they host the Angels, a team that is having some struggles of their own as well. [dfads params=’groups=10&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]

Mariners starter Brandon Maurer is getting his first taste of the Majors this season. His first two outings were forgettable as the A’s and Astros feasted on him but he has dealt quality starts his last two times out, both against Texas.

He is not great but don’t be completely fooled by that 7+ ERA. Giving up 6ER in 2/3 of an inning will kill your numbers this early in the season.. He is not as highly touted as Richards though.

L.A. is the better value play as a medium favourite in this one. They are the better team on the whole with the better arm on the mound. Seattle is one of the more frustrating teams to try and figure out and when King Felix is not on the mound it is probably best to stay away.

If you win early maybe put a small play on the Angels.

O/U Pick: Over
Score Prediction: Los Angeles 6 – Seattle 5

Washington Nationals 9-7 vs. N.Y. Mets 8-7

The Nationals fashion themsleves an elite team but after losing the series opener to the Mets are closer to the middle than the top of the National League East. They opened the series with Stephen Strasburg on the hill but the Mets weren’t shy in welcoming him to the Big Apple.
