Play: Seattle -196 (action vs. Hernandez)
Time: 10:10 p.m. ET
Reasoning: Given the circumstances with Toronto, I think this price is a bargain. The Blue Jays are coming off of a cross-country flight after playing a 19-inning affair with Detroit on Sunday. It was the longest game in club history and Toronto used eight pitchers. Now the Jays get to face Felix Hernandez and all he has done is string together a major-league record 15 straight starts in which he lasted at least seven innings while giving up two or fewer runs. King Felix has allowed just 25 hits in his last 53 innings. Toronto counters with Drew Hutchison, who has allowed 19 earned runs over 25 innings in his last five road starts. He also has allowed a homer in each of his last four turns overall. The Mariners score a quarter-run more per game vs. RH. And their bullpen? It's nearly two runs better per game than the Jays' relief corps.
Record: 165-123-7 (57.3%)
Bankroll: +97.08%
