An interleague series finale takes place in Toronto on Wednesday, as the defending AL East champion Toronto Blue Jays host the Colorado Rockies for Game 3 of a three-game set.<\/p>\n
Toronto dropped the series opener on Monday, allowing 14 runs, but it bounced back with a nice 5-1 win on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n
Now, the Jays send ace Kevin Gausman (1.50 ERA) to the mound against Colorado lefty Kyle Freeland. This season, Freeland has a 4.15 ERA, but he had a 4.98 ERA in 31 outings in the 2025 campaign.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Can the Rockies pull off another upset? Oddsmakers aren\u2019t expecting it, as the Jays are -308 to win Wednesday\u2019s afternoon tilt.<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s a breakdown of the odds, a player to watch in the prop market and my prediction for this matchup.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Freeland has allowed at least 22 homers in each of the last three seasons, though he did not give one up in his season debut against Miami.\u00a0<\/p>\n The Rockies\u2019 bullpen has been shaky this season, allowing four homers in five games, and Springer is coming off one of the best power seasons of his career, hitting 32 homers in 140 games. He\u2019s a great target on Wednesday, especially since the Jays have scored 10 runs in two games so far this series.\u00a0<\/p>\n Rockies vs. Blue Jays Prediction and Pick<\/p>\n The Jays may have lost the opening matchup of this series, but they returned to the status quo on Tuesday with a 5-1 win.<\/p>\n Toronto has taken care of business against a soft schedule so far, sweeping the A\u2019s to open the season and now it has a chance to move to 5-1 on Wednesday.<\/p>\n Gausman allowed just one hit \u2013 a home run \u2013 in six frames against the A\u2019s on Opening Day, and he should slow down a Colorado offense that is just 16th in the league in OPS despite a 14-run outburst on Monday.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, the Rockies went just 9-22 in Freeland\u2019s outings last season, and their bullpen has a shaky 5.14 ERA early on in 2026.\u00a0<\/p>\n The Jays have already won two games by two or more runs, and I think they\u2019re worth a look to do it again with Gausman on the bump.\u00a0<\/p>\n Pick: Blue Jays -1.5 (-136 at DraftKings)<\/a><\/p>\n Odds refresh periodically and are subject to change.<\/p>\n If you or someone you know has a gambling problem and wants help, call 1-800-GAMBLER.<\/p>\n Claim the latest\u00a0DraftKings promo code<\/a>\u00a0offer today.
