Los Angeles Angels vs Toronto Blue Jays Prediction

I’ll lean toward the Jays. Francis is on a pretty nice run over his last three starts. In that trio Francis is 2-0 with just three earned runs in 19.0 innings. As for Fulmer, he’s got nine earned runs over his last 11.0 innings, going 0-2 in that time.

On Friday the Blue Jays were down 4-0 after two innings and couldn’t make it up on the scoreboard until the dramatic walk-off. I like Toronto to keep it going Saturday with another W.
