San Francisco @ Toronto picks

The Toronto Blue Jays will start the second half of the season in first place in the AL East. A series opener vs. the Giants, and in particular Justin Verlander, is a great way for them to keep their momentum rolling. Verlander isn't the same guy we are used to seeing, as he sports a 0-7 record with a 4.70 ERA. The Jays should be able to hit him hard and give Chris Bassitt enough run support to pick up the win. 

George Springer is 6-for-16 lifetime with a pair of long balls vs. Justin Verlander, who has allowed 10 homers in 15 starts this season.

Bassitt’s conceded a .294 batting average and a .191 ISO vs. lefties, giving up a much higher average and more than double the amount of homers. That should play into the hands of Devers, who has an outstanding track record against both Bassitt and the Blue Jays.
