Houston at Toronto 7:10 ET
Blue Jays over Astros- Houston Astros right-hander Ronel Blanco no-hit the Toronto Blue Jays on April 1 in a 10-0 home gem. In April, Blanco, who now is 8-3 with a 2.49 ERA, held the Blue Jays to two walks and struck out seven in Houston's 10-0 win in his 105-pitch no-hitter. In three career games (two starts) against Toronto, he is 1-0 with a 1.15 ERA. The Astros have closed the gap in the American League West and now are just three games behind the first-place Seattle Mariners. The Blue Jays are scheduled to start left-hander Yusei Kikuchi (4-8, 4.18 ERA) on Wednesday. Kikuchi is 1-5 with a 6.27 ERA in 13 career starts against the Astros. He last faced them in 2022. When the stats are this one-sided I look for a reversal. Take TORONTO!
