Top MLB picks for Friday, July 23
SportsLine's model has found value in the Toronto Blue Jays (+110) against the New York Mets on Friday. Part of that belief stems from the brilliance of Toronto's offense. The Blue Jays lead Major League Baseball in home runs (144), OPS (.783) and slugging percentage (.456), with top-three marks in hits (826), batting average (.264) and on-base percentage (.327).
They will face a relatively difficult matchup in New York's Tylor Megill, but he will make only his sixth MLB start and the Blue Jays could pounce on that inexperience. In addition, New York's offense has been a mess this season, even as the team sustains success.
The Mets are 14th in the National League in runs scored (367) and last in hits (688), doubles (121) and total bases (1,133). Given that New York will be asked to face a top-flight pitcher in Toronto's Hyun-Jin Ryu, the Blue Jays project to be in a strong position.
