Best Bet of the Day
Los Angeles Angels ML vs Toronto Blue Jays
4:07 pm ET, MLB Network
Jose Berrios might be the biggest disappointment in baseball right now. The supposed ace has a 4.75 ERA and a 6.70 xERA through 47.1 innings and has been a letdown as the #1 starter for Toronto. The Blue Jays have lost 3 of Berrios’ last 4 starts and although he has been better in his recent starts, he’s due for negative regression. Contrary to Berrios, LA’s Patrick Sandoval is building on his stellar 2021 season. The lefty has surpassed all expectations with a 1.78 ERA and a 3.05 xERA this year and will face a Toronto lineup that has struggled of late. Check out our full preview of Blue Jays vs Angels.
