Best Bet of the Day
Toronto Blue Jays ML vs New York Yankees
7:05pm ET
Toronto is a perfect 6-0 in September. Better still, with 9 wins in their last 10 games, they are hot on the heels of Boston and the Yankees for a Wild Card spot. The Jays bats are booming again and the Yankees have lost their last 4 games. Check out our full preview of Blue Jays vs Yankees.
Stat of the Day
The Brewers are 16-7 in Freddy Peralta’s 23 starts on the year. He is 9-4 with a 2.70 ERA. Opponents are managing to hit just .154 against him, and just .131 when he pitches at home.
