San Diego @ Toronto picks

Let's go back to the well with the Jays here after a blowout win on Wednesday. The Jays bats are starting to come alive, and while Bowden Francis is struggling, the Padres aren't exactly hitting the cover off of the baseball. I'll take the Jays bats to do enough to get Francis in the win column. 

Kolek didn’t allow a run over his first two starts, which included a complete-game shutout of the Rockies. But that was the Colorado Rockies. The other being the Pittsburgh Pirates — two of the worst offenses in baseball. Last time out, he returned to Earth, giving up five runs on eight hits over five innings against the Mariners. In the starts against the Pirates and Mariners, he threw 84 and 83 pitches. The complete-game shutout is a bit of an anomaly. He threw just 104 pitches and likely won’t have a 19-run lead through five innings to help him relax. Now, he faces a Blue Jays' lineup that ranks sixth in OPS and fifth in wRC+ in May. The Jays also don’t strike out a ton and could quickly build up Kolek’s pitch count.
