The setup: While this is only Alex Manoah’s second start, don’t look for the Marlins to score many runs on Wednesday. Manoah was unhittable in the minors and formidable against the Yankees. The Jays bullpen has been sharp when not overtaxed. They are well rested at the moment after some long outings by the starters and the odd day off.

Contrary to his win/loss record, Pedro Lopez has pitched well this year, especially in his last three starts. The Jays can score runs, but they are a young team and often struggle against an unfamiliar pitcher. The Jays haven’t face Lopez before.

Marlins are struggling; .429 on the road, 4 straight losses, scoring only 9 runs in the last 5 games. The total has run Under in 3 of 4 of their last games.

THe pick: I don’t see this as a high scoring game, but the Jays’ big bats will win out. Take the Blue Jays to win.

This is an 8* DESTRUCTION on the Blue Jays.
