Oakland Athletics vs Toronto Blue Jays Prediction: It's time for the Blue Jays to beat the Athletics

Toronto unexpectedly lost both opening games of the series against Oakland. Will the Blue Jays win game three? Let's pick a few options to bet on at once.

The Athletics aren't contending for anything this season. The team is firmly in the American League with a 28-55 balance. All the more surprising are two straight wins over one of MLB's season leaders Toronto.

James Kaprielian will pitch the third game of the series against the Blue Jays, 1-5, with a 5.43 ERA in 12 games this season.

The team lost a crucial divisional clash to Tampa Bay ahead of the series. After two straight losses against the Athletics, the Blue Jays dropped to fourth place in the AL East. The gap between the higher-ranked Boston and Tampa Bay is insignificant but needless to say, how dangerous is this situation for Toronto? Missing the playoffs for a second straight time would be a big blow to the entire organization from Canada.

Jose Berrios will pitch for Toronto on the pitching hill in the third game of the series in Oakland, 6-4 and a 5.72 ERA in 16 starts.

The Blue Jays unexpectedly lose their season series to Oakland. Losing to the underdogs is too dangerous for Toronto, given their division's difficult battle for the playoffs. Therefore, it is likely that the Canadiens will get their act together, do their best, and take the remaining two games against the Athletics. Moreover, the class of the teams isn't comparable at all.
