Baltimore 53% - This game has a very large edge involved with a play on Baltimore. Roy Halladay's reputation is why Toronto is such a big favorite in this game, but he has not been his usual lights-out self for a few months now. Although he has been generally good, and is likely to have a good start here, he is also likely to get outpitched by Erik Bedard.
Bedard has been nothing short of dominant since mid-June, and was even reasonably good in his last start, where he suffered from exhaustion due to the heat wave that hit Baltimore. Halladay has additionally been less effective in day games over the past 2 seasons. This game is very similar to Halladay's last start, where he was also an undeserving favorite in the -150 range, where we called for a play against him. Baltimore has a much weaker lineup than he faced in that game, but Bedard is very likely to keep Baltimore in the game even if Halladay does shut their offense down.
This game should be close to even money, and as such, there is a lot of value in Baltimore as a sizable underdog.
