Toronto Blue Jays vs. Tampa Bay Rays
May 23, 2025 4:05 PM
George M. Steinbrenner Field
Toronto’s surging offense (3rd in May wRC+), success against Rasmussen (Bichette’s .300 BA), and the Rays’ struggles vs. lefties (71 wRC+) give the Blue Jays an edge. Lauer’s historical issues vs. Tampa (8.76 ERA) are concerning, but his 2025 form (2.25 ERA, 0.83 WHIP) and Tampa’s .095 ISO vs. LHP mitigate this. Rasmussen’s pitch count limit (likely 80-85) and recent extra-base hit issues (11 in 5 starts) favor Toronto’s hot bats. The Blue Jays’ 51.7% underdog win rate (+121) and 3-game win streak outweigh the Rays’ 44.4% favorite win rate (-135).
