3 Ways To Bet Blue Jays vs Mariners – Tues, Sept 20

Huge win for the Blue Jays last night as Marco Estrada stepped up to carry a no-hitter into the seventh inning and Toronto held on for a 3-2 victory over the Mariners.

The Jays pulled into a tie with the Orioles for the two American League wild card spots, 2.5 games ahead of the idle Tigers and 3 games in front of both the Mariners and Astros. Boston beat the Orioles to remain 4 games ahead in the AL East.

Toronto can push the Mariners even further out of the playoff picture with a victory tonight or tomorrow, since they would leave Seattle with at least a 3-game lead over the M’s and Seattle would have only 10 games remaining to catch them.

JA Happ will shoot for his 20th victory tonight for the Jays. Seattle will turn to 16-game winner Hisashi Iwakuma.

Let’s look at 3 ways to do Blue Jays betting tonight.

Blue Jays To Win (-120 odds)


When will J.A. Happ finally get some AL Cy Young talk? The guy is 19-4 with a 3.27 ERA and 1.16 WHIP, and he’s lost just once since June 6.

Earlier this year, he blanked the Mariners 2-0, allowing just 1 hit in 6 innings.

The Jays are 7-1 in Happ’s last 8 road starts and 22-6 in his last 28 starts overall.

Under 8

Despite the victory last night, the Jays offence is still ice cold. It’s now 9 times in their last 12 games that they’ve scored 3 runs or less.

It’s hard to imagine Toronto breaking out tonight against Hisashi Iwakuma, who has held opponents to 3 runs or less in 8 of his last 9 starts.

The Under is 4-0 in the Jays’ last 4 games, and 6-1-1 in the Mariners’ last 8.

No Runs In 1st Inning

Happ and Iwakuma have both been strong first-inning pitchers this season, each posting an ERA under 2.50 in the opening frame.

Toronto has scored just 1 run in the first inning since Sept. 12, and the Mariners have scored in the first inning just twice in their last 8 games.
