Toronto is on a 4-9 run after splitting the first two of this series, including a 9-3 loss as -200 chalk. They're 8-11 on the road and are getting outscored by 34 runs, the fourth-worst differential in the AL. The offense is 26th in runs scored, 20th in on-base percentage, 21st in slugging, and 21st in steals, while the pitching is 22nd in ERA (4.33) and 26th in the pen (5.18 ERA). Alek Manoah (5.87 ERA in 2023) makes his season debut, not having pitched in the majors since last August. He's been dealing with shoulder discomfort and struggled with an 8.69 ERA in five starts across Single and Triple-A. The Blue Jays are 35-40 versus lefty starters. Washington is on an 8-6 run cashing as underdogs of +155, +155, +110, +125, +120, +130, +185, and +185. The offense is second in the majors in steals, while the defense is seventh in fielding percentage. Starter MacKenzie Gore (3.19 ERA) has a 38-to-9 strikeout-to-walk ratio and the Nationals are 10-6 after a loss. Play Washington.
