Toronto Blue Jays vs Seattle Mariners: Max Scherzer Under 2.5 Pitcher - Earned Runs (-149)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
The odds for Max Scherzer to allow under 2.5 earned runs seem promising tonight. Both the Blue Jays and Mariners have struggled against left-handed pitchers this season, and Scherzer fits that bill. With the wind blowing out toward the outfield, we might expect some runs, but Scherzer is a proven ace who can navigate tough situations.
The biggest risk is that both teams have been inconsistent lately, with the Blue Jays having a tough time at home. Scherzer's recent strikeout average of 0.7 over the last three games shows he's not overpowering hitters right now, which could lead to more earned runs than expected. Still, this bet offers decent value given the circumstances.
