Toronto Blue Jays vs Baltimore Orioles Game 1 Betting Preview

The Baltimore Orioles and Toronto Blue Jays will open their double-header in Game 1 of that twin-bill on July 29, 2024. The Orioles come into this game in first place in the AL East this season at 62-43, a game ahead of the New York Yankees. Meanwhile, the Blue Jays are 49-56, sitting in last place in the AL East. Toronto has won three games in a row going into this matchup, however, and they will look to keep things rolling this afternoon.

Yariel Rodriguez will start for the visiting Blue Jays in this contest. Rodriguez is 1-3 for the season with a 3.69 ERA. He has performed well in his last three starts, allowing four earned runs combined over those starts, in a total of 15.2 innings of work. Toronto will hope he can go deep into this game to preserve their bullpen for Game 2 of today's double-header.

On the Orioles side, Zach Eflin will get the start. Eflin is 5-7 with a 4.09 ERA for the season, a season he has spent with the Tampa Bay Rays until now. Eflin will look to make an impact as a member of the Orioles for the first time in this contest, as he looks to help his team not just win this game but position themselves well for Game 2 between the Orioles and Blue Jays.

Toronto is coming off of an impressive series at home against the defending champion Texas Rangers. The Blue Jays swept Baltimore over the course of three games, bringing them some much-needed momentum heading into this series against a division rival. But consistency has been the issue for the Jays all season long and they will need to sustain the level they produced against Texas over the weekend if they want to make a dent in the huge deficit they face in the AL East standings.
