Toronto (91-69) has already clinched the wild card spot, so this series hardly matters for them. They will much rather focus on the post-season and prepare for that. A brilliant home (47-34) and away (44-25) form has kept them safe in the second spot, just behind the New York Yankees. The Blue Jays are currently on a 7-3 run in their last 10 games, which makes them favorites.
Baltimore (82-78) has struggled this season and finds itself in fourth position at the moment. Their decent home (44-35) record has allowed them to remain where they are. They are well ahead of the Boston Red Sox, who are last in the division. But the Orioles will look to win a game or two at home before the season ends.
Yusie Kikuchi will start for the Blue Jays, while Spenser Watkins will represent the Orioles. Both pitchers have high ERAs, which can make this game a high scoring encounter. Yusie is at a 5.27 ERA this season whereas Spenser is at a 4.76 ERA for the season.

Toronto Blue Jays vs. Baltimore Orioles: Pick
Since Spencer has a better ERA than Yusie, hence it is safe to bet on Baltimore. The Orioles would love to win this game more than the Blue Jays. Kikuchi has been very expensive this season, something Baltimore could take advantage of. They will try to put as many runs as possible on the scoreboard. The home team will hope their offense will click today and provide a positive result.
