Toronto Blue Jays vs Cincinnati Reds Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 09/03/25

In this game, we will see the Toronto Blue Jays take on the Cincinnati Reds. Over the past 2 nights, these teams have split with a win each. The Reds currently sit 5 games out of the wild card while the Blue Jays are 1st place in the American League. Both teams will be looking to win this one with playoff spots on the line. The starting pitchers for today will be Shane Bieber of the Blue Jays and Zack Little of the Reds. Bieber has only pitched in 2 starts this year. In those starts, he has pitched 11.1 innings giving up just 7 hits and 3 earned runs. These are great numbers when you have the Toronto lineup to back you up with some runs. On the other side, Little was recently acquired by the Reds and has pitched in 5 games. In those starts, he has pitched 27.2 innings giving up 12 earned runs. The issue with Little is that he has given up 3 runs per game in his last 2 starts, including the start where he only pitched 3 innings. It seems the Blue Jays have the starting pitcher edge.

Outside of the starters, the bullpens for these teams have been very similar on the year. The biggest difference is that the Reds attempted a bullpen game yesterday where they burned through 6 bullpen pitchers and gave up 11 earned runs. This may mean that they are willing to let Little go deep into the game today. That can be a problem when we consider that the Blue Jays are batting .276 over the past 6 games. Additionally, the Blue Jays have 56 hits and 36 runs over the past 6 games. This level of efficiency when hitting is hard to beat for any pitcher. Given all of this, I am rolling with the Blue Jays to get the win today. I feel that Bieber’s arm will be too much for the Reds, and the Blue Jays bats will cause problems for Little.
