10* UNDER Jays/Giants (IL TOY)

Despite this being a fairly "low" number, we're definitely anticipating a very low-scoring defensive "duel" in San Francisco in the opener of this IL series. Toronto is 41-49 overall, while San Francisco is 44-47. The public sees the Giants' Blake Snell getting the start here and will be quick to jump on the "over" for sure. We can't completely blame them of course for this knee-jerk reaction, with Snell entering 0-3 with a 9.51 ERA thus far. The southpaw has been reactivated from the IL with a full five days rest to regroup. In his last tune-up though, he finally returned to form, going five no-hit, shutout frames while also striking out nine. And he'll be opposed by Yusei Kikuchi (4-8, 4.12 ERA) of the Jays, who has been at his best on the road with a 2-2 record and a 3.99 ERA. We expect these two hungry hurlers to be the main storylines in tomorrow's summaries of this contest and because of that, the plays is indeed on the "under!"
