The Houston Astros will try to end their current homestand with a series sweep of the Toronto Blue Jays in Game Three of their three-game series today. Fans can follow the action on the MLB Network once the game gets underway at 7:40 p.m. EST.

Yesterday’s 5-1 over the Blue Jays put the Astros above .500 for the first time this season (12-11). The lineup gave starting pitcher Ronel Blanco an early cushion to work with after scoring three runs in the bottom of the first off Blue Jays starter Chris Bassitt. Blanco went on to pitch 6 2/3 innings, his longest outing of the season, giving up two hits (one home run) and one earned run before turning the game over to the bullpen. Houston will try to keep the good times rolling with Ryan Gusto (3.18 ERA, 1.24 WHIP) on the mound today. Gusto won his last outing, Friday vs. the Padres. He lasted five innings but gave up nine hits, doubling his season total, and two earned runs on the day. Toronto will give Bowden Francis the ball to start the day. Francis is 2-2 in four starts, winning his last one, 3-1, vs. the Mariners.

Our Toronto Blue Jays vs Houston Astros Prediction

Both teams are putting solid pitchers on the mound to start the game, who will be hard to hit. Once the starters are pulled, the Astros will have a slight advantage with their better bullpen compared to Toronto's, which is also pretty good. Houston’s been hitting well over the last week (.280) while Toronto has been struggling at the plate (.204). The Astros should win this game, but the total is the better bet here.
