Arizona Diamondbacks vs Toronto Blue Jays Prediction
The Arizona Diamondbacks are getting the benefit of the doubt because they’re at home and have played the better baseball. However, we’re getting even or plus money with an all star caliber pitcher in Jose Berrios while Yilber Diaz is making just his second career start. The Blue Jays have to feel like they have the edge on the mound, and their offense has shown flashes this week. I’ll take the Blue Jays and the more favorable price in game 2.
