The read
Alright, let's break it down. The Blue Jays' batting order, led by Bo Bichette (.297 AVG), has a clear advantage over the Pirates' lackluster lineup, with none of their top batters even breaking a .270 average.
They're going up against a pitcher in Paul Skenes who, despite a respectable ERA (2.13) and WHIP (0.96), has a losing record (7-9). On the flip side, Kevin Gausman for the Jays, despite a higher ERA of 3.79, holds a stronger record (8-9) and has kept opposing batters at a .210 average.
The Jays' record (73-52) speaks for itself, while the Pirates (52-73) are struggling to keep afloat. If you've got the stomach for it, the smart money's on the Jays.
