Rockies vs Blue Jays Prediction 

Toronto was able to even the series at one with a win on Tuesday night and they have scored at least five runs in four straight games. The Blue Jays are starting Gausman, who is a very good pitcher and had a great first start. Colorado has scored three runs or fewer in four of their five games and they are starting Freeland, who pitched very average against the Marlins in his first outing. I really like Gausman and he should have a fantastic day here, so give me the Blue Jays -1.5.
