Angels vs Blue Jays Prediction
The Blue Jays looked like a team going through a World Series hangover but the cats woke up in their last two games and maybe that’s a sign of getting sober. As I’ve said before, the Angels are a team I’ve faded endlessly over the years, and their current play doesn’t change much. I’m not a fan of Corbin, who has been one of the worst starters in baseball over the last several years. Still, the Blue Jays are the better team overall and if the bats stay hot, it doesn’t matter what Corbin does. Give me the Jays for a third straight victory.
