The Toronto Blue Jays and Kansas City Royals meet Saturday in MLB action at Kauffman Stadium. Here’s a Toronto Blue Jays vs Kansas City Royals Prediction. This article will include a Toronto Blue Jays vs Kansas City Royals Pick.
The Toronto Blue Jays are 89-65 on the year and play the Red Sox and Rays next. The Toronto Blue Jays are batting .267 on the season, have a .335 OBP, and a .427 slugging percentage. The Toronto Blue Jays pitching staff has a 4.23 ERA and a 1.28 WHIP. Bo Bichette leads the Toronto Blue Jays with 181 hits and 94 RBI, while Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Ernie Clement have combined for 310 hits and 127 RBI.
Shane Bieber gets the ball for the Toronto Blue Jays, and he is 3-1 with a 3.72 ERA and 30 strikeouts this season. Bieber is 6-1 with a 3.01 ERA and 102 strikeouts in his career against the Kansas City Royals.
The Kansas City Royals are 77-77 on the year and play the Angels and Athletics next. The Kansas City Royals are batting .247 on the season, have a .308 OBP, and a .396 slugging percentage. The Kansas City Royals pitching staff has a 3.76 ERA and a 1.25 WHIP.

Noah Cameron gets the ball for the Kansas City Royals, and he is 8-7 with a 2.98 ERA and 103 strikeouts this season. This will be Cameron’s second career game against the Toronto Blue Jays.
The Blue Jays are due for an offensive breakthrough after being held to a combined 2 runs in their last 3 games. The Blue Jays also can’t afford to blow games against non-playoff teams if they’re serious about wrapping up the AL East. The Royals haven’t won two straight games since September 6. Cameron has been great this season and makes the Royals worth a look on Saturday, but I’m backing the better team that still is playing for something. Give me the Blue Jays.
