Thursday MLB Pick

The Toronto Blue Jays will try for a 4-game sweep of the visiting Oakland Athletics today in an early one at Rogers Centre. The Blue Jays should be pumped up after last night’s dramatic come from behind ninth inning victory. Toronto’s Marcus Stroman (9-5, 2.98 ERA) will square off with Oakland’s Sean Manaea (8-5, 3.82 ERA). In Stroman’s last 2 starts he has been lethal, posting an ERA of 0.63 and opponents are batting just .196 against him over that span. The Athletics are 16-34 on the road, 3-7 in their last 10 games and 1-11 in their last 12 trips north of the border.
