T.M. Selection: Toronto Blue Jays.

I like the Toronto Blue Jays to win this game against the Houston Astros on Saturday. The Blue Jays have looked great in their games lately but they have already dropped the 1st game of this series to Houston. They lost the game 11-7 in what was an all around terrible performance from the pitching staffs of both teams. That game turned into whoever could drown the other out in runs but I think the pitching will be a lot better for the Blue Jays here and I expect them to bounce back with a win. The Astros haven't looked great lately and they haven't really won a series in a while either. They barely squeaked by in 2 games against the Rangers, taking 2/4 in that series and then they lost 3 series in a row before that series against Texas. Luis Garcia (1-0, 4.60 ERA) is up for the Astros here and he hasn't pitched that well in his 2 most recent starts. He gave up 5 runs in 6 innings in the last game he started and that was a game against the Blue Jays that they won 8-7 but that was the only game of the series they took and he had to get bailed out by their offense. I think he is going to pitch another bad game against the Blue Jays here but I think they get the win this time by keeping their lead with good pitching on their side today. Jose Berrios (1-0, 4.91 ERA) is up for the Blue Jays here and he didn't look great at the beginning of the year but he has been getting better with each start and I think he is going to have a great game here as he is starting to find his way. I think this is a great game for the Blue Jays to bounce back in. I like the Blue jays to win this game.

T.M. Prediction: 6-2 Blue Jays.
