Toronto Blue Jays vs Minnesota Twins Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 05/02/26

The Toronto Blue Jays and Minnesota Twins have a quick turnaround on Saturday after Friday night’s game. The Jays won Friday to even the series, and they send their best pitcher to the mound on Saturday afternoon. The defending AL champs have had a rough April, and that has been compounded by numerous injuries. Still, they should be in the better position to win on Saturday. I am taking the Blue Jays on the Money Line.

I like Dylan Cease, and he has pitched well so far for the Blue Jays. His last outing was the first of the year in which he has allowed more than 2 runs. I doubt he follows that up with another rough start. The trick with Cease, of course, is that he rarely goes deep into games. Between the strikeouts and the walks, he goes deep into far too many counts. The Twins will be starting rookie Connor Prielipp. Prielipp has logged a pair of good starts so far. Still, I like the Toronto offense a bit more. They got Springer back this week, and that has helped a bit. But let’s back Dylan Cease over a rookie counterpart and see where that takes us.
