The Blue Jays come into this game after a victory over the Guardians yesterday, winning by a score of 5-3. This second game of the series will feature two right-handed pitchers, Kevin Gausman for the Blue Jays and Gavin Williams for the Guardians.<\/p>\n<p>In the standings, the Blue Jays sit at 16-16, while the Guardians have a solid record of 18-14. Despite Toronto&#8217;s average season thus far, they will rely on Gausman, who has been somewhat unlucky this year, with a <a href=\"https:\/\/evanalytics.com\/mlb\/player-stats\/earned-run-average\">4.50<\/a> ERA but a lower expected ERA of <a href=\"https:\/\/evanalytics.com\/mlb\/player-stats\/earned-run-average\">3.86<\/a>. His ability to project 6.0 innings while allowing only 2.5 earned runs is a promising sign for the Blue Jays, especially considering their bullpen ranks 8th best in MLB according to the advanced-stat Power Rankings.<\/p>\n<p>On the other side, Gavin Williams has also been inconsistent, holding a <a href=\"https:\/\/evanalytics.com\/mlb\/player-stats\/earned-run-average\">5.14<\/a> ERA this season, which is below par. He projects to pitch 5.4 innings today but has struggled with walks, averaging 1.9 per start. With the Guardians&#8217; offense ranking 21st best in MLB, they face an uphill battle against Gausman.<\/p>\n<p>While both teams have offensive struggles, the Blue Jays&#8217; projected run total is 4.11, compared to the Guardians&#8217; low 3.39. Toronto&#8217;s best hitter has shown recent form, producing 2 home runs and a 1.362 OPS over the last week, which could give the Blue Jays the edge they need to capitalize on their favorite status in this matchup. With Gausman on the mound and a favorable bullpen behind him, Toronto looks to build momentum following their recent win.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 3rem 0 0 0;\">Cleveland Guardians Insights<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong>Gavin Williams &#8211; Over\/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-120\/-110)<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">Gavin Williams has relied on his change-up 5% less often this season (0.4%) than he did last season (5.4%).<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0 1.5rem;\"><small><em><strong>Explain:<\/strong> Because change-ups are one of the most effective pitches to use, a pitcher who alters his pitch mix to use them less often may see less success as a result, particularly if he uses his fastball more instead.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong>Kyle Manzardo &#8211; Over\/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-150\/+120)<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">Typically, hitters like Kyle Manzardo who hit a lot of groundballs tend to be less successful when facing pitchers who also induce a lot of groundballs such as Kevin Gausman.<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0 1.5rem;\"><small><em><strong>Explain:<\/strong> This mostly has to do with the way the hitter&#8217;s swing plane interacts with the pitch trajectory, and it can create diminished performance across all categories and hidden value few are considering.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong>Daniel Schneemann &#8211; Over\/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-140\/+110)<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">Daniel Schneemann hits a high percentage of his flyballs to center field (38.5% \u2014 79th percentile) and is a great match for the park considering he&#8217;ll be hitting towards MLB&#8217;s 10th-shallowest CF fences today.<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0 1.5rem;\"><small><em><strong>Explain:<\/strong> This player&#8217;s skill set matches up particularly well with the park he&#8217;s in today, which may lead to better-than-usual performance.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 3rem 0 0 0;\">Toronto Blue Jays Insights<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong>Toronto Blue Jays &#8211;  1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (-155)<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">In his previous outing, Kevin Gausman was in good form and conceded 2 ER.<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0 1.5rem;\"><small><em><strong>Explain:<\/strong> A pitcher who was strong in his last outing may be sharp once again in his next outing.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong>Andres Gimenez &#8211; Over\/Under 0.5 Hits (-155\/+120)<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">Andres Gimenez has primarily hit in the top-half of the batting order this season (86% of the time), but he is penciled in 9th on the lineup card in this game.<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0 1.5rem;\"><small><em><strong>Explain:<\/strong> The lower in the order a player bats, the fewer plate appearances he will get and the fewer opportunities he will get to hit the Over for every market.
