Phillies vs Blue Jays Picks and Predictions: Toronto and Philly Pile ... (Financial Post)

The Toronto Blue Jays come home after a rough 1-6 straight up road trip where their only win was a 2-1 victory. Now the sliding club opens up a brief ...

Philadelphia should easily flirt with its team total tonight. With the late-inning inconsistencies, we’re avoiding the Jays’ moneyline but are getting down on the full-game Over. Even with some missing pieces, the Phillies should be able to get plenty of traffic on base against the Jays who will likely need the bullpen for double-digit outs. If Toronto trails and throws out its “B” bullpen, the visitors could be stacking some late runs. Yes, they are right-handed heavy, but that shouldn’t matter too much today as two of the Phillies’ best relievers (Brad Hand and Jose Alvarado) are lefties. The BAT X projects the Jays as the best lineup on today’s slate, and with Toronto having the advantage offensively and in starting pitching, we’re taking the Jays on the first five innings moneyline and avoiding this awful bullpen. The Jays also have the best wOBA and slugging percentage at home in the America League. Clustering hits is an important thing to look at in baseball and is very luck driven. The Jays have had plenty of opportunities to cash runs as they’ve stranded 68 runners in scoring position over that 10-game stretch. Our best bet is our favorite pick across all markets. The total opened as low as 9 while some books opened at 9.5. Berrios was a -200 road favorite in his last start in Oakland. With both bullpens expected to play a huge role in tonight’s outcome, is looking at the total a more warranted move than picking a side?

Phillies vs. Blue Jays - Game Recap - July 12, 2022 - ESPN (ESPN)

Get a recap of the Philadelphia Phillies vs. Toronto Blue Jays baseball game.

Berríos tipped his cap in appreciation of the fine grab. The Phillies are the NL’s second-worst team in one-run games. Gibson, who pitched Saturday, can be replaced Wednesday. The four restricted list players will rejoin the Phillies in Miami, where a three-game series against the Marlins begins Friday. Nola started on the mound for Philadelphia’s game Monday night at St. Louis and was not scheduled to pitch against the Blue Jays. Bohm came out of Monday’s game with a dislocated left ring finger. “That’s the guy that I saw in Minnesota,” Phillies manager Rob Thomson said of Berríos. “First pitch strikes, using all his pitches and throwing all his pitches for strikes. That made Thomson the first Canadian-born manager in the big leagues since Pittsburgh’s George Gibson in 1934. Berríos is the third pitcher in Blue Jays history to strike out 13 or more and not walk a batter. Bryson Stott hit a solo home run for the Phillies, who have lost three straight. He also struck out 13 in a seven-inning start against Minnesota, his former team, on June 4. Thomson became the first Canadian to manage a Major League Baseball game in his home country. He struck out five in a row at one stretch, and fanned the final two batters he faced. “We got that off day, tried to turn that page.

The Toronto Blue Jays escaped with a narrow 4-3 win in the first game of their two-day series with the Philadelphia Phillies.

Under 2.5 runs, first three innings (-130): With runs looking like a rarity with Wheeler on the mound we’re betting on very little scoring to start this game. The same can’t be said about the Jays who’ve lost four of their last five series. The Phillies have only lost one of their last five series. Philadelphia will win this contest because of its strong pitching, not its bats. Under 8.5 runs (-130): Philadelphia has strung together some respectable results of late but it’s not because of its offence. The Cardinals rank eighth in batting average and 11th in on-base percentage this year.

Blue Jays vs. Phillies series preview: Can Toronto turn things ... (Sportsnet.ca)

Losers of nine of their past 10, the Blue Jays return to Rogers Centre on Tuesday night to open a critical homestand before the all-star break.

This year, Hand has a 2.33 ERA in 27 innings. The Blue Jays host the Kansas City Royals, who are last in the AL Central, for a four-game series starting Thursday. The Phillies are trying to make the playoffs for the first time in 10 years. The result of the series left the Phillies and Cards tied for the third and final wild-card spot in the National League. Acquired by Toronto before last year’s playoff push, the veteran left-hander had a 7.27 ERA in 8.2 innings for the Blue Jays before he was designated for assignment. Philadelphia RHP Zack Wheeler (8-4, 2.46 ERA) The Phillies (46-41) settled for a split of a four-game series in St. Louis after losing 6-1 to the Cardinals on Monday. Philadelphia RHP Andrew Bellatti (1-3, 3.14 ERA) The good news for the Phillies is they have Wheeler, who has a 1.53 ERA in the past 13 starts, going Wednesday. The Blue Jays are far closer to last in the AL East (Baltimore is two back) than first (the Yankees are 16.5 up). Losers of nine of their past 10, the Blue Jays return to interleague action when they face the Philadelphia Phillies in a two-game mini-series. The slumping Toronto Blue Jays return to Rogers Centre on Tuesday night to open a critical homestand before the all-star break.

The Toronto Blue Jays mercifully return home after a disastrous road trip, hoping to get back in the win column against the Philadelphia Phillies.

Phillies to score first (-125): If Berrios does struggle in this game, he’s most likely to do so in the very beginning. Over the past two weeks, the Phillies’ bullpen boasts the fourth-best ERA in the majors (1.79). On the Blue Jays’ side, the game total has fallen short of this mark in five of the past seven games. Against a Phillies team that’s missing two middle-of-the-order stars, plus Bohm (.330/.347/.464 in 25 games since June 12), we’re willing to accept that. But due to COVID protocols in Toronto, the hits keep coming for Philadelphia. The pregame narrative: Toronto went 1-6 out west last week to slip into a tie for the AL’s final wild card position.

Phillies vs. Blue Jays: Jose Berrios strikes out 13 in Phils loss (NBC Sports)

The Phillies had a chance to win in Toronto despite striking out 13 times against Jose Berrios, but just 1 of their final 14 hitters reached base in a ...

Wheeler has pitched 14 scoreless innings in his last two starts and his ERA is down to 2.46. He’ll be pitching with a little added motivation after being snubbed from the All-Star Game. It’s still possible he could make it as a replacement for Atlanta’s Max Fried, who pitches this weekend. Bryson Stott was involved with a solo homer off of Berrios, a line drive single and two runs scored. The Phillies responded with two-out runs in the second, fourth and fifth innings. In a bullpen game started by Andrew Bellatti, the Phils were unable to pick up the one late hit they needed, losing 4-3. They’ve scored a total of 10 runs in their last five games. The Phillies are 46-42 after three straight losses.
