Orioles vs Blue Jays Prediction
Game 1 Prediction: It would be nice to know who the Blue Jays are throwing on the mound, but it doesn’t matter much to me. The Blue Jays have been one of the hottest teams in the league over the last month or so, and that’s enough for me. Morton is also an inning-eater at this point at 41 years old, and he’s allowed 23 hits and 13 runs in his last 23.1 innings. Morton has a 5.48 ERA and 1.54 WHIP on the season. No, thanks. Give me the Blue Jays.
Game 2 Prediction: It would be delightful to know who the Orioles are throwing on the mound, but I’m still siding with the Blue Jays. Lauer has been dealing this season with his 2.61 ERA and 0.93 WHIP, and he’s allowed seven runs in his last 24 innings. In 41 road innings, Lauer has a 2.63 ERA and .217 allowed batting average. We don’t see doubleheader sweeps often, but I’ll back the Blue Jays twice on Tuesday.
