The Toronto Blue Jays are currently savoring their 9-4 win against the Milwaukee Brewers for game one. This upcoming Monday, June 27th at 2:10 AM in Philippine Standard Time, it will be the last game between the two. As always, predicting a victor is a tough feat, especially with outcomes seemingly as unclear as ever. Here are our thoughts so far: 

 

The Blue Jays (40-30) stand strong at sixth in Major League Baseball; however, their nearby neighbors might change their standing soon enough. As of late Blue Jays have won four and lost six of their last 10 games. They seem to have a turbulent record as of their last three series with the Baltimore Orioles, the New York Yankees, and the Chicago White Sox respectively, losing at least twice in each series. However, not all hope is lost against their series with Milwaukee as they’ve recently won with a five-point deficit. 

 

As for our home players, they might rank lower than their visiting contenders, but that doesn’t set anything in stone. While the Blue Jays might have been victorious in game one, the Brewers have Corbin Burnes. In his previous start against the Cardinals, Burnes showed exceptional play that proved his 2.31 ERA and 0.92 WHIP wasn’t just for show.  

 

Team Statistics 

 

	AVG	R	H	HR	OBP	SLG	ERA	WHIP	BB	K
TOR	.256	332	610	92	.324	.432	3.97	1.24	183	579
MIL	.232	317	562	95	.310	.400	3.77	1.24	228	676

 

Alas, we’ve made our pick. Corresponding to recent events and the reappearance of Corbin Burnes, our verdict is in the Milwaukee Brewers’ favor. With his seven shutout innings in their game against the Cardinals and recent brilliant performance matched up against the unsure Blue Jays, we’re seeing the Brewers as the better team for game three.
