Max Scherzer, who gets the start for Toronto tonight, tossed five solid innings vs. New York in a home win last month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out my Yankees vs. Blue Jays picks for July 22, featuring <a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/news\/stats\/mlb\/george_springer\/batting-stats\">George Springer<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/news\/stats\/mlb\/trent_grisham\/batting-stats\">Trent Grisham<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Yankees vs. Blue Jays picks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Best Bet: Springer over 1.5 total bases (+108)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When there&#8217;s a pitcher on the mound with little-to-no MLB experience, it can be difficult to know where to turn in the prop market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yankees starter Cam Schlittler has just one big-league start to his name. But there&#8217;s still enough to draw upon that makes me interested in Springer tonight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Firstly, Springer is ripping it up this month:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In 14 starts, he has a .333\/.403\/.667 slash line and is 8-6 vs. his bases prop.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>His strikeout rate is down (15.0%, compared to 19.3% on the season) and his hard-hit rate is up (52.0%, compared to 47.0% on the season).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Springer has a .326 xBA, per Baseball Savant, which is nearly aligned with his .333 actual BA.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>So before even thinking about Schlittler, there&#8217;s a lot to like about how the veteran outfielder is performing these days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I do think this is a compelling matchup for Springer, though, based on Schlittler&#8217;s pitch mix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s only one game, but Schlittler threw nothing but four-seam fastballs, sliders and sweepers against right-hitting players in his MLB debut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Against righty pitchers, Springer has a .531 SLG (.614 xSLG) this season when seeing those exact pitch types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key stat:<\/strong> Schlittler&#8217;s fastball averages 97.1 mph, and Springer can handle the heat. Facing pitches thrown 97 mph or harder this year, Springer is 9-for-23 (.391) with a .652 SLG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"cacheembed:116136\">Embed: #116136<\/a><\/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 picks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Grisham over 0.5 runs (+100):<\/strong> Grisham singled and scored against Scherzer in their June 30 matchup in Toronto. That came in the heart of a really nice run for the moustachioed outfielder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Over his past 20 games, Grisham has a .958 OPS and has reached base 33 times.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>He is 10-7 vs. his runs prop in 17 starts during that span.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Scherzer has been punished by left-hitting players this year, allowing an .882 OPS. By comparison, righties have posted just a .686 OPS against him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Grisham has a sky-high walk rate (13.6%, 93rd percentile) and almost never chases (17.0%, 99th percentile). He&#8217;ll be a tough out for Scherzer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Blue Jays picks made at 9:19 a.m. ET on 07\/22\/2025.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Tuesday night, the Toronto Blue Jays look to move to 5-0 in the second half with a matchup against the New York Yankees.
