Grant Neiffer's Blue Jays vs Orioles Best Bet: Holliday Showing Value
I'm going hard on the Baltimore's lefties today as the spot and odds are far too good. Opposing pitcher Chris Bassitt has been better this season, but he's still allowing above-average homers to lefties (1.38 HR/9) and has been one of the best matchups for lefty power over the past two years.
Baltimore is tied for the best ballpark for lefty power the past three seasons, and it has been — by far — the best ballpark for lefty power this season. The weather should be great for hitting, with temperatures in the mid-90s during the game. Holliday isn't a huge home run hitter, but I have the true odds here more than 100 points lower, making this a great bet.
Pick: Jackson Holliday Over 0.5 Home Runs (+550)
