With so many rubber matches and intriguing pitching battles, we asked the AI Model for some help to pick the best bets for today’s Sunday slate. Here’s one of the three bets from the AI Model for today, with the best MLB odds available.

The Blue Jays and Athletics are projected to score 9.5 points in today’s showdown. However, Caesars only has the line at 8 for the Over. The value is obvious. We’ll talk about it below.

MLB Pick: Over 8 (-110) at Caesars Sportsbook


Toronto Blue Jays vs. Oakland Athletics

Sunday, June 09, 2024 – 04:07 PM ET at Oakland Coliseum


Something Has To Give!

The Oakland Athletics have been awful against right-handed pitching over the last 30 days. The lineup has hit a .121 ISO and wOBA of .282 with 28.3% of strikeouts.

However, they’re facing Bowden Francis of the Blue Jays, a righty who has allowed a .307 ISO and a wOBA of .427 to his first 84 batters.

Something has to give. Per the AI Model, the Athletics bats will wake up against Francis.

Toronto Has Enough Power

Maybe the Blue Jays aren’t getting on base at a high rate due to a low walk rate. However, Toronto has still hit a .165 collectively as a projected lineup and has only struck out 16.7% of the time against righties.

The Blue Jays should be able to put the ball in play against Mitch Spence of the Athletics.

While Spence has been good, he’s still allowed a .300 wOBA with only 20.3% of strikeouts. There’s room for success with the Blue Jays tonight.

MLB Computer Pick

According to our AI model, both offenses should get back on track in tonight’s game. Let’s go with the Over.
