Ernie Clement is one of the few Jays’ hitters off to a good start, and he’ll clear his total bases prop for the third time in four games.
EXPERT PICK – PROP
Ernie Clement o1.5 Total Bases (+145)

Ernie Clement is riding a four-game hitting streak, and with a lefty expected to throw some bulk innings for the Chicago White Sox, my Blue Jays vs. White Sox predictions expect that streak to continue.

Blue Jays vs White Sox predictions
Blue Jays vs White Sox best bet: Ernie Clement Over 1.5 total bases (+145)
Ernie Clement is on a shortlist of Toronto Blue Jays hitters seeing the ball well right now, batting .310 with a hit in four straight.
The Jays slugger has also gone Over the 1.5 total bases mark twice in his last three games.
Grant Taylor has been named the opener for the Chicago White Sox, but lefty Anthony Kay is expected to get the ball afterward for some bulk innings.
Clement crushes lefties. He led the Jays with a .900 OPS against left-handed pitching last season, and I expect that trend to continue here this afternoon.
COVERS INTEL: Clement had a .549 slug-rate against lefties last year with 26 extra base hits in just 175 at-bats.

Blue Jays vs White Sox same-game parlay (SGP)
George Springer has recorded a hit in four of his last five games, and with Grant Taylor expected to pitch just one inning this afternoon, he’s set to face a weak White Sox bullpen that finished 17th in ERA last year and utilized Seranthony Dominguez on Friday.
For the final leg of the SGP, let’s take Under 0.5 strikeouts for Vladimir Guerrero Jr. The Jays slugger has only struck out twice this season, going 5-2 to the Under on this line.
The Jays’ superstar sees the ball extremely well and won’t swing at anything he doesn’t have to.

Blue Jays vs White Sox home run pick: Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (+450)
This one will be just a half-unit wager with Toronto’s bats struggling.
However, I do like Vladimir Guerrero Jr. to break out of his skid. Vladdy doesn’t have an extra-base hit yet this season, but a matchup against a hard-throwing lefty could be the key to turning things around.
Guerrero had a .519 slug rate against southpaws last season.
