Chris Bassitt (7-4, 3.29) is expected to pitch for the Blue Jays against Dean Kremer (6-3, 4.89). Both will be working on five days of rest.

3.29 ERA 4.89
4.26 xERA 6.20
1.02 WHIP 1.44
2.69 SO/W 3.11

Bassitt has won his last two starts, allowing two runs in 15.2 innings. He pitched two-run ball over eight innings to beat the Houston Astros last Wednesday in Toronto as he gave up four hits, struck out five and walked none.

In four career starts against the Orioles, Bassitt has a 3-0 record and a 2.36 ERA.

Bassitt is 4-3 with a 4.43 ERA in seven road starts this season and 7-2 with a 1.29 ERA in 10 starts at night. He has 10 quality starts in 13 outings and the Blue Jays are 8-5 when Bassitt pitches.

Bassitt’s American League Cy Young odds are +10000.

Kremer is 1-2 with a 5.71 ERA in his last three starts and was hit hard in a loss to the Brewers last Wednesday in Milwaukee. He was touched for six runs and nine hits in five innings while striking out five and walking none.

Kremer has had effective stretches, though.

The Orioles are 8-5 when he takes the hill, though Kremer has five quality starts in 13 turns. He has a 3-1 record and 4.91 ERA in six starts at Camden Yards and is 6-1 with a 3.97 ERA at night in eight starts.

Blue Jays infielder Santiago Espinal could get a start at second base in place of Whit Merrifield. Espinal is 5 for 7 lifetime against Kremer and Merrifield is 2 for 13 (.154).

Bassitt has held Orioles second baseman Adam Frazier to one hit in six at-bats.

Blue Jays vs Orioles Betting Trends

Cavan Biggio hit a go-ahead three-run home run in the eighth inning as the Blue Jays wiped out a five-run deficit to beat the Twins on Sunday. Matt Chapman added a two-run homer for Toronto.

Center fielder Kevin Kiermaier (bruised left wrist) did not start for the third straight game and designated hitter Brandon Belt (left hamstring tightness) also sat out after being injured Saturday. Both are questionable for Tuesday.

The Blue Jays recalled right-handed reliever Thomas Hatch from Triple-A Buffalo and he pitched 1.1 scoreless innings. Righty Bowden Francis was optioned to Buffalo.

Gunnar Henderson homered for the second straight game and Ryan O’Hearn also went deep to lead the Orioles over the Royals on Sunday.

Left-handed reliever Danny Coulombe and first baseman Ryan Mountcastle were both unavailable over the weekend because of illness. Both are expected to be able to play Tuesday.

The Orioles swept a three-game series from the Blue Jays from May 19-21 in Baltimore in the teams’ only other meeting this season. Frazier went 6 for 13 (.462) with a triple and a home run.

However, the Blue Jays went 57-29 against the Orioles over the previous five seasons from 2018-22.

Blue Jays vs Orioles Prediction

Bassitt is proving to be a good free agent pickup for the Blue Jays after signing a three-year, $63-million contract in the offseason. Let’s ride him despite being a road favorite against a quality team.

Pick: Blue Jays moneyline (-144) 

Season Record: 28-11 (+15.1 units) ML; 2-2 (0.0 units) RL; 2-1 (+1.0 unit) O/U; 0-1 (-1.0 unit) same-game parlays; 1-1 (+1.0) player props; 33-16 (+16.1 units) overall
