With only two starts in 24 appearances this season, the Blue Jays may limit Miles' pitch count and length in this rotation turn.

McDonald’s hit-by-pitch problem looms large

McDonald has hit nine batters in 57 innings this season, potentially creating extra baserunners for a patient Toronto lineup.

Pick Ideas

Lean: Blue Jays moneyline

Back the Blue Jays moneyline given Toronto's statistical pitching advantage and Miles' superior efficiency.

Giants team total under

The under on San Francisco’s team total is appealing if the Giants’ inconsistent offense continues to struggle against Miles' current form.

Miles strikeout over

Miles has 55 strikeouts in 54 innings this season, and his recent pace supports an over on his strikeout prop.

McDonald walks/HBP overs

McDonald’s 19 walks and nine hit batters in 57 innings suggest value on over props for his free passes against Toronto.

First five innings: backing Miles early

A first-five innings wager on Toronto capitalizes on Miles’ dominant recent stretch while avoiding late-game bullpen variance.
