BLUE JAYS VS INDIANS PREDICTION
These starting pitchers do not have the best records or ERA but Stripling’s last outing was in relief against Tampa Bay when he threw 7 shutout innings with only 2 hits. The Blue Jays are an offensive powerhouse averaging over 5 runs per game ranked #3 in runs scored per 9 in the MLB. The Indians are ranked #23 in runs scored per 9 sitting around 4 runs per game. The Indians however are missing a few key players that will make this offense even weaker without Reyes and Luplow. The Blue Jays are also starting to heat up after losing 6 straight they beat the Yankees in 2 of 3 and dominated the Indians on Friday. The Blue Jays have scored 22 runs in the last 4 games winning 3 of the 4. The Indians have scored only 11 runs in the last 4 games with 3 of those games against the weak Detroit Tigers. The weather is going to be windy and possibly rainy but the Blue Jays bats will get the job done.
