That&#8217;s what&#8217;s important for <a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNDU3MiZsPTEzNTc4NzU5JnA9MjM3Njk%3D\">this pick<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Over the past 17 games, Guerrero is batting .302 with a .556 SLG and 35 total bases.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>It usually comes down to the matchup and he&#8217;s got a juicy one tonight. He is 7-for-13 off Anderson in his career with a .692 SLG.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Guerrero takes a lot of walks (90th-percentile walk rate), which is the one red flag with this type of wager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the slugging first baseman also ranks in the 90th percentile or higher for xBA (.312), xSLG (.533) and average exit velocity (92.9).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is some <a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNDU3MiZsPTEzNTc4NzU5JnA9MjM3Njk%3D\">juice to pay<\/a> on this line, but bettors are backing an elite hitter against a pitcher he sees very well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key stat:<\/strong> Guerrero will also have the platoon advantage. He slashes .329\/.424\/.521 vs. left-handed pitching this season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"insights\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/sports-hub\/baseball\/mlb?utm_source=insights&amp;utm_medium=text_link&amp;utm_term=&amp;utm_content=&amp;utm_campaign=sportsbook_mlb\">Full MLB betting markets<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"insights\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/news\/article\/mlb-injury-report?utm_source=insights&amp;utm_medium=text_link&amp;utm_term=&amp;utm_content=&amp;utm_campaign=injury_reports\">MLB injury report<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"insights\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/news\/stats\/mlb\/top-players\/hitting\/OPS-on-base_plus_slugging?utm_source=insights&amp;utm_medium=text_link&amp;utm_term=&amp;utm_content=&amp;utm_campaign=stats_pages\">MLB stats &amp; standings<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Quick pick<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNDU3MiZsPTEzNTc4NzU5JnA9MjM3Njk%3D\">Trout over 1.5 total bases (-109):<\/a><\/strong> A star slugger on the other side has a <a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNDU3MiZsPTEzNTc4NzU5JnA9MjM3Njk%3D\">good matchup<\/a>, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trout is 8-for-20 off Gausman with three home runs. That equals out to a .400 average and .850 SLG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Jays&#8217; righty has been trending downward recently. He has a 5.18 ERA over his past six starts. His season-long ERA (4.18) would be the highest of any of his seasons with Toronto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I want to back Trout in a market completely in his control due to a lack of trust in other Angels hitters. The offence as a whole ranks near the bottom of the league in most statistical categories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The veteran outfielder has at least a hit in eight of the past 10 games and has a history that suggests he&#8217;ll get to Gausman today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Blue Jays picks were made at 8:38 a.m. ET on 07\/06\/2025.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"thestar\">Looking to get started? <a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNzQxMyZsPTEzNTI3NDExJnA9MjMyNDM%3D\">Sign up here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The AL East-leading Toronto Blue Jays look for their second straight sweep at home.
