Blue Jays ML (+150)
Primed to pull off the road upset tonight, back the Blue Jays to get the win as underdogs over the Guardians as they make up ground in the heated AL Wild Card race. In three meetings this season, the Jays have fared well against the Guardians, having won two of the three matchups, with both victories coming by two runs.
While the Guardians have been red hot overall in recent weeks, they’ve begun to show a chink in their armour, losing two of their last three games played in a series with the Kansas City Royals. Additionally, the Guardians have had major struggles when playing at home this season, sporting a 32-26 record when playing from Progressive Field.
With the Jays entering this series riding an impressive three-game series sweep over the Seattle Mariners, bank on them to take advantage of the Guardians poor play at home, handing them their third loss in four games, and extending their head-to-head dominance in the 2026 MLB season.
Blue Jays Moneyline
Ernie Clement Over 1.5 Total Bases (+175)
Due for a big performance, look for Blue Jays second baseman Ernie Clement to break from his recent cold spell, racking up Over 1.5 total bases for the first time in eight games. Having found plenty of success against the Guardians earlier this season, expect a resurgent showing from Clement on the road tonight.
In the three games played against the Guardians in 2026, Clement has been sensational. Piling up four hits and an RBI in three games played, Clement has also struck a double in all three matchups. Additionally, Gavin Williams is set to take the mound for the Guardians this evening, who was the starting pitcher in the first meeting between these two teams that saw Clement register a double in four at bats.
With his recent string of success against the Guardians, as well as their starting pitcher, hammer Clement to make a big play in tonight’s clash, securing Over 1.5 total bases, and netting you a sizeable payday with this MLB player prop.

Spencer Arrighetti 5+ Strikeouts (+155)
Set to make his third start since being acquired by the Blue Jays at the MLB Trade Deadline, Spencer Arrighetti will make his second start against the Guardians, and will be ready to replicate his previous successes, striking out 5+ batters in tonight’s showdown.
While his last start against the Guardians was one to forget, as he allowed six hits, including three homers, as a member of the Houston Astros, Arrighetti did still manage to rack up eight Ks over six innings. Having finished 10 of his 19 games played this season with at least five strikeouts, Arrighetti is poised for a terrific showing against the Guardians in tonight’s contest.
Back Arrighetti to throw some heat from the mound, relying on his stellar curveball to bait batters into swinging, leaving them hitting only dust as he finishes the game with 5+ strikeouts for a juicy plus money payout.
