Blue Jays RHP Shane Bieber delivers a pitch in MLB action.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>The Toronto Blue Jays will look to get right after an embarrassing 20-1 loss to the Kansas City Royals on Friday night.<\/p>\n<p>Before that 20-run performance, the Royals averaged just 3.8 runs per game. The law of averages suggests KC\u2019s offense should come back down to earth this afternoon with Shane Bieber on the bump.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Find out why with my free Blue Jays predictions for this Saturday, September 20 matchup.<\/p>\n<h2>Blue Jays predictions for September 20<\/h2>\n<h2 id=\"Jays_Best_Bet\">Today\u2019s Blue Jays best bet: I got a Bieber fever!<\/h2>\n<p><b>Shane Bieber Under 5.5 hits allowed <\/b>(<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.covers.com\/betting\/sportsbookredirect?vertical=betting&amp;location=editorial&amp;slug=betvictor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">-125at BetVictor<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>The <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.covers.com\/sport\/baseball\/mlb\/teams\/main\/toronto-blue-jays\/odds\">Toronto Blue Jays<\/a> send <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.covers.com\/sport\/baseball\/mlb\/players\/15061\/shane-bieber\">Shane Bieber<\/a> to the mound to go toe-to-toe with <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.covers.com\/sport\/baseball\/mlb\/teams\/main\/kansas-city-royals\/odds\">Kansas City Royals<\/a> starter <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.covers.com\/sport\/baseball\/mlb\/players\/352248\/noah-cameron\">Noah Cameron<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Bieber 3-1 with a 3.72 ERA and a 1.00 WHIP in five starts since returning from Tommy John surgery.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The posted total for Bieber\u2019s hits allowed today is 5.5, and it\u2019s a number he\u2019s stayed below in four of his five starts, averaging five hits against per game this season. I expect him to go Under that number again tonight against the Royals.<\/p>\n<p>The Toronto righty throws a heavy dose of the fastball and slider combination. Kansas City has a .249 batting average against the four-seamer and a .231 average against the slider with a 21.7 strikeout rate.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As a unit, it ranks 26th with a 92 WRC+, so it\u2019s not a team that has put up a lot of offense \u2014 yesterday aside.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>My <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.covers.com\/picks\/mlb\">MLB picks<\/a> back Bieber to put KC\u2019s offense back in its place after it erupted for 20 runs last night.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"+650_Jays_SGP\">Today\u2019s Blue Jays same-game parlay (SGP)<\/h2>\n<div class=\"covers-data-brick-wrapper covers-data-brick-wrapper-unranked\">\n<div class=\"covers-data-brick-imgWrapper\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.covers.com\/betting\/sportsbookredirect?vertical=betting&amp;location=editorial&amp;slug=betvictor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-linkcont=\"Articles - SGP\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.covers.com\/betting\/sportsbooks\/744\/bet_victor.svg\" alt=\"BetVictor\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"194\" height=\"62\"\/> <\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"covers-data-brick-contentWrapper\">\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Shane Bieber Under 5.5 hits allowed<\/p>\n<p>Shane Bieber Over 17.5 outs<\/p>\n<p>Ernie Clement Over 1.5 total bases<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>I\u2019ll continue to back Bieber tonight and go Over 17.5 outs recorded.
