The Toronto Blue Jays, with their .252 batting average, are looking a bit more polished than the Los Angeles Angels (.224), but the Angels have been pitching like they're trying to make up for it - 3.98 ERA for L.A. versus 4.56 for Toronto. The Blue Jays are limping in with an 8-13 record, while the Angels are a near-even 11-12. Tonight, Dylan Cease brings his 1.74 ERA and 32 strikeouts over 20.2 innings to the mound, where he'll face Reid Detmers, who's rocking a 3.57 ERA and 26 strikeouts over 22.2 innings.
The real question is, can Cease keep the Blue Jays' bats hot, or will Detmers cool them down? Complicating things for Toronto are their missing pieces: George Springer and Addison Barger are both on the 10-Day IL. Meanwhile, Angels fans are anxiously waiting for their own injured list guys to return. With all these moving parts, now's the perfect time to make your pick or join the discussion on StreakChat.
