Blue Jays vs Rockies Prediction

Toronto comes into this game after a nice bounce back win on Saturday and they will look for the series win here. The Blue Jays haven’t played their best baseball so far this season, but they should have the advantage in this game. Colorado is only 4-11 on the season and they have the worst team ERA in the MLB. The Rockies are starting Kyle Freeland, who has allowed 19 earned runs and 25 hits over 10.2 innings against the Diamondbacks (twice) and Cubs. The Blue Jays are going with Jose Berrios, who has allowed three earned runs over 18.2 innings against the Mariners, Astros, and Rays. Freeland has been awful through three starts this season and I see no reason why that wouldn’t continue. Take the Blue Jays -1.5 here.
