Phillies vs. Blue Jays Pick
Can the Toronto Blue Jays continue their winning ways when they host a struggling Philadelphia Phillies team today at 7:07PM ET?
The Phillies have Jerad Eickhoff on the mound to face R.A. Dickey of the Blue Jays. According to oddsmakers at BetDSI, Toronto is the clear favorite at home in this game, as the Jays are getting odds of -180 to win. Philadelphia has been given odds of +165 to win. The over/under total for the contest has been set at 9 runs.
Toronto is 35-30 overall, 17-15 at home and 37-24-4 with the under. Philadelphia is 29-34 overall, 13-18 on the road and 32-29-2 with the under. These two met four times last season, with each team picking up two wins. Toronto has actually won eight of the last 10 against the Phillies.

The Phillies are riding a four-game losing streak coming to Toronto while the Jays have won their last three, putting up double digit runs the last two games. That should help them against Eickhoff, who has a pretty good ERA of 3.68, but is just 3-8 on the season. Dickey has been pitching well as of late, going with a 2.60 ERA in his last three starts. That should be enough to get past a struggling Philly lineup.
