Houston Astros vs Toronto Blue Jays Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 09/09/25

The Houston Astros head to Toronto to open a crucial three-game series with the Blue Jays.  Toronto has seen its AL East lead shrink down to just two games, while Houston holds just a two-game lead in the AL West. The Astros have struggled offensively, and they could be in for a long night against the Blue Jays as Shane Bieber is expected to take the mound. Bieber enters with a 2-1 record and a 4.15 ERA. 

For the Astros, Luis Garcia will make his second start of the season, entering this game with a 1-0 record and a 4.50 ERA. It’s hard to tell what kind of performance we’ll get out of Garcia in tonight’s matchup, as he’s only made one start this year. However, I expect Bieber to rebound from his last outing in this game. Offensively, the Astros are just averaging 4 runs per game over their last 10, compared to the Blue Jays’ 6 runs per game in that same span. The Blue Jays have been the better team all season, and I think they’ll be in a great position to pick up the win in front of their home crowd as I expect them to get to Garcia early in this one.
