The Padres are the better team, and they’re due for a breakout performance offensively, but they’ve scored a combined three runs in their last three games. Cease has been better lately, but he’s been hittable this season overall with a 4.60 ERA and 1.34 WHIP. In 19.2 innings, Cease has a 6.41 ERA and a .253 allowed batting average. Bassitt has simply been the better pitcher this season with his 3.16 ERA and 1.27 WHIP, and he has a 2.05 ERA in 22 home innings. We’re getting the Blue Jays at home with the better starting pitching option, while the Padres are in a funk offensively. Give me the Blue Jays.
