Tigers vs. Blue Jays: Public Bettors Leaning Towards Toronto
As of this writing, our MLB Public Betting Page shows that 55% of bets are on the Blue Jays’ moneyline. That said, this page is updated frequently so make sure that you click on the link provided so that you’re getting the most updated information.
Flaherty to start Friday’s series opener
Jack Flaherty will start Friday’s series opener against the Blue Jays. Flaherty has been dealing with a lingering back issue for the last few weeks, but it appears that he’s ready to roll at the outset of the second half after tossing six innings of one-run ball last Thursday against the Guardians to close out the first half. It’ll be Reese Olson and Keider Montero following him this weekend in Toronto for the rest of the series.
Kikuchi to follow Bassitt in pitching matchup
The Toronto Blue Jays will start Chris Bassitt, Yusei Kikuchi, and Kevin Gausman in this weekend’s series against the Tigers. The pitching schedule prior to the All-Star break was set up for Gausman to start on Friday, Bassitt to take the ball on Saturday, and Jose Berrios to start on Sunday. Berrios will now be bumped to next week’s series against the Rays, and Kikuchi will get two starts before the trade deadline as the Blue Jays try to showcase him for other teams.
