The Brewers won the series opener of that series on Monday, won the 2nd game on Tuesday, and lost the 3rd game on Wednesday. Their offense ranks 11th in the MLB with a .738 OPS. Jose Quintana is their starting pitcher on Thursday while Freddy Peralta is making his start in this game on Friday. He is 15-5 with a 2.68 ERA this season. His team won 3 of their last 4 games this season with him making an appearance. In his last MLB regular season appearance, he allowed 0 ER, 0 HR, and 4 BB with 6 SO on 2 hits through 5 IP against the San Francisco Giants.

The Blue Jays are entering this series off a win and won their 3-game series against the Minnesota Twins 2-1 in their last series. They enter this game with a 78-56 record overall and have a home record of 44-22. This is the 1st game of a 3-game series with the Brewers on Friday and they have Thursday off as a day of rest. Their offense ranks 3rd in the MLB with a .768 OPS. Eric Lauer was their starting pitcher on Wednesday while Shane Bieber is making his start in this game on Friday. He is 1-0 with a 1.50 ERA this season. His team won their only game this season with him making an appearance. In his last MLB regular season start, he allowed 1 earned run, 1 homer, and 0 walks with 9 strikeouts on 2 hits through 6 innings pitched against the Miami Marlins.

The current betting odds have the Blue Jays listed as a favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Blue Jays have looked great in their games this season with their 78-56 record overall which has them right at the top of the AL East with one of the best records in the entire MLB. They have also looked great in their own ballpark this year with their 44-22 home record. Meanwhile, the Brewers have looked great in their games this season with their 83-51 record overall which has them right at the top of the NL Central with the best record in the entire MLB. They have also been a good road team this year with their 38-28 road record. The Brewers haven't looked great lately though as they are 4-6 in their last 10 games now and have cooled off from the hot streak they were on. They are going to have Peralta starting in this one and he has looked great this season. He is 15-5 with a 2.68 ERA and he has been their ace this season. He is coming off another good start in which he gave up no runs and the team has won 3 of their last 4 games with him starting too. The Blue Jays are going with Bieber in this one though and he has been a solid veteran throughout his career. He is 1-0 with a 1.50 ERA and has only made 1 start this season, coming back from an injury, and he looked great in that start. He only gave up 1 earned run and the team won that game too. This will be a tight game between two very good teams with great starters on the mound, but the Blue Jays do have the stronger offense overall and they have looked like a different team at home this year so they do have the edge in this one. The best way to place a bet here is on the Blue Jays to win this game.

“Nothing too serious. We’ve been grinding through it for the last week, and 34 pitches the other day ‘wasn’t it.’ So we’re taking a step back and get this right for the postseason.” - Trevor Megill on his injury. 

“That was loud. That was a pretty electric atmosphere. These guys do not quit. They do not give a [crap] who they’re playing against. They don’t care what the situation is. I love it. They don’t even care if I pinch-hit for them [after] they hit a home run. That was a big win today.” - John Schneider after his team’s win against the Twins in their game on Wednesday.
