Houston Astros vs Toronto Blue Jays Prediction 6/24/2026 Today’s MLB Picks

The Houston Astros and the Toronto Blue Jays will meet on Wednesday night in the final game of a three‑game American League series at Rogers Centre in Toronto, Ontario.

Houston Astros Betting Preview

The Houston Astros enter Wednesday’s contest with a 38–43 overall record (4th in the American League West) and an 18-22 mark on the road. The Astros offense has been competitive to this point in the season. Through 81 games played in 2026, Houston has compiled 367 runs scored (10th in MLB), 132 doubles, a .244 team batting average and 107 home runs which ranks third in Major League Baseball.

The Astros arrive at tomorrow’s game in good form. More specifically, Houston has won five of the team’s last seven games played this season, including a thrilling 2–1 victory over the Cleveland Guardians two days ago.

Houston will turn to right hander Mike Burrows in this contest. In fourteen starts made this season, Burrows has compiled a 3–8 win‑loss record, a 5.79 ERA, a 1.58 WHIP and 66 strikeouts, while allowing 95 hits and 30 walks in 79.1 innings pitched. Mike Burrows has struggled recently, allowing five or more earned runs in three of his last four starts made this season. Burrows will look to rebound from his recent inconsistency in tomorrow’s matchup with the Toronto Blue Jays.

The Astros lineup features outfielder Yordan Alvarez and first baseman Christian Walker. Yordan Alvarez has compiled a .325 batting average (4th in MLB), 25 home runs (2nd in MLB), 53 walks, 56 RBIs and a 1.076 OPS which ranks third in Major League Baseball. Christian Walker has tallied 18 home runs (12th in MLB), 28 walks, 52 RBIs (12th in MLB) and a .773 OPS.             

Toronto Blue Jays Betting Preview

The Toronto Blue Jays enter Wednesday night’s matchup with a 39–40 overall record (3rd in the American League East) and a 22–19 mark at home. Toronto has played competitive baseball recently, winning five of the team’s last seven games, including an 8–6 victory over the Chicago Cubs last week.

Toronto will start right hander Trey Yesavage in tomorrow’s game. In ten starts made this season, Yesavage has compiled a 3–3 record, a 3.76 ERA, a 1.16 WHIP and 53 strikeouts, while allowing 39 hits and 25 walks in 55 innings pitched.

Shifting our focus to the Blue Jays offense, the Toronto lineup features third baseman Ernie Clement and first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Ernie Clement has amassed a .293 batting average (15th in MLB), 20 doubles, 10 walks, 28 RBIs and a .753 OPS. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has tallied a .280 batting average, 4 home runs, 12 doubles, 34 walks, 32 RBIs and a .729 OPS.         

Why the Houston Astros will win.

• Offensive upside. Yordan Alvarez and Christian Walker continue to anchor the Astros lineup.

• Current form. The Houston Astros have won five of the team’s last seven games.   

Why the Toronto Blue Jays will win.

• Starting pitching. In ten starts made this season, Trey Yesavage has compiled a 3–3 record, a 3.76 ERA, a 1.16 WHIP and 53 strikeouts, while allowing 39 hits and 25 walks in 55 innings pitched.

• Home field advantage. The Toronto Blue Jays have played competitive baseball at the Rogers Centre posting a 22-19 record.

• Offensive production. Ernie Clement and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. provide a strong core to the Blue Jays lineup.

Houston Astros vs. Toronto Blue Jays Prediction

In my view, the way to go in this contest is the total rather than a side. Why? Houston starting pitcher Mike Burrows has amassed an abysmal 5.79 ERA in 79.1 innings pitched, while Toronto hurler Trey Yesavage has allowed five or more earned runs in two of his last three starts made this season. I see a game where both starting pitchers struggle to limit offensive production. With that said, I am backing over 7.5 runs in this game.
