The Toronto Blue Jays and Kansas City Royals face off on Wednesday in an MLB showdown at Kaufmann Stadium. The Blue Jays have won the first two games of this series, outscoring the Royals 15-0. 

The Blue Jays currently sit with a 33-22 record overall and after some struggles over the weekend against the Minnesota Twins, they have turned it around against the Royals. The offense has looked good, but more impressive has been the pitching that has given up only eight hits and zero runs. Vladimir Guerrero has hit 13 home runs and driven in 30 RBIs so far this year. 

On the other side of this matchup is the Royals who sit with a 17-37 record overall and the offense has been a big problem all season. On the season they are averaging only 3.61 runs per game which is 27th in the league. In this game, they are going to need to find a way to get the offense going. Bobby Witt has hit seven home runs and driven in 28 RBIs so far this season. 

On the mound for the Blue Jays is Yusei Kikuchi who sits with a 2-2 record and an ERA of 3.90. In his last start against the Twins, he went 4.2 innings, giving up seven hits and four runs. 

On the mound for the Royals is Brady Singer who sits with a 2-1 record and an ERA of 4.15. In his last start against the Astros, he went five innings, giving up eight hits and seven runs. 

The Blue Jays are 6-0 in their last six games on the road. The over is 4-0 in Singer’s last four starts an underdog. The over is 6-0 in the Blue Jays last six games against a right-handed starter. 

Kikuchi has been inconsistent, but the Royals offense has been so bad as of late, he is going to look like a Cy Young winner in this start. Singer gave up seven runs in his last start, and the Blue Jays offense will continue the hot streak here. The Blue Jays will win this game in blowout fashion. Back the Blue Jays -1.5.
