The New York Yankees will host the Toronto Blue Jays on Saturday afternoon in a game that could impact the standings. Pitcher Ryan Weathers is expected to start for the Yankees, aiming to build on his recent performance.
Weathers has shown improvement over the season, having allowed just three runs in his last 31 2/3 innings pitched. This follows earlier starts that were described as "stormy." The Yankees enter the game facing numerous injuries.
On the other side, the Blue Jays' Dylan Cease has seen a slight downturn after a strong July where he pitched one-hit games against the San Francisco Giants and the Boston Red Sox. Cease has allowed five runs over his last 11 innings.
The game is part of a broader landscape of Major League Baseball betting, with "Stitches," a handicapper for the New York Post since 2019, providing predictions for the series.
