Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Toronto Blue Jays roll into Washington, all eyes will be on Vladimir Guerrero Jr., but tonight might not be his night at the plate. Despite his power and prowess, Guerrero has shown signs of struggle recently, especially against right-handed pitchers. The Nationals' starter has been effective at limiting hard contact, boasting a respectable WHIP that suggests he knows how to navigate through lineups with precision.
Moreover, the Blue Jays have faced a series of formidable pitchers lately, and their batting rhythm seems to be off-kilter. With Guerrero averaging less than one hit per game against righties in his last few outings, backing the under on his hits feels like a savvy play. The combination of a solid Nationals pitching performance and Guerrero’s recent dip in production creates a compelling case for taking the under on 1.5 hits tonight.
