The Toronto Blue Jays and St. Louis Cardinals are back at it for an afternoon game at Rogers Centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blue Jays props vs. Cardinals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Best Bet: Berrios over 4.5 strikeouts (-139)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embed: #94545<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is some juice to contend with here but I believe it’s worth the squeeze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Berrios has steadied the ship after a tough start to the season. He has a 2.36 ERA since the start of August and has recorded five-plus strikeouts in all seven of those starts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He’s averaging 20.3 outs in that span which is roughly 6.2 IP. Berrios isn’t an elite swing-and-miss guy by any means but working deep into ballgames gives him a better chance of racking up Ks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Cardinals managed to keep Kevin Gausman to just three strikeouts in 7.0 IP yesterday but his K rate has fallen off a cliff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Berrios has seen parts of this Cardinals lineup a few times and the results speak for themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 26 combined plate appearances, he has a monster 46.2% K rate, according to Baseball Savant. That includes striking out Paul Goldschmidt six times in nine at-bats and Brendan Donovan three times in six at-bats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He should be able to clear this modest total. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key stat:<\/strong> Berrios recorded seven strikeouts the last two times he played the Cards (both in 2022).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quick pick<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Guerrero over 1.5 bases (-106):<\/strong> We might be running the risk of sounding like a broken record over here … but Vladdy is really, really good. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embed: #94546<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his last 70 games, he’s hitting .361 with a 1.116 OPS. He has 50 extra-base hits in that span and went 1-for-4 last night with a double. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He’s having a mini-slump this month, if you can even call it that, batting .270 across nine games. But he’s still got a hit in seven of those contests and has cleared this line three times. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tonight’s matchup against St. Louis starter Kyle Gibson should be favourable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The righty has a 4.20 ERA and ranks in the bottom-third percentile for xERA, xBA, barrel rate and fastball velocity (90.9 mph). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vladdy is batting .402 with a .632 xSLG against fastballs under 93 mph and is 5-for-14 with a double against Gibson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
