<p>The New York Yankees and Toronto Blue Jays continue their battle for the wild-card spot in the American League on Wednesday, September 29, 2021, with the middle contest of a three-game series at Rogers Centre in Toronto.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>



<p>Excluding Tuesday’s clash in Canada, the Jays are 10-6 against the Yanks in 2021. Toronto is a slight +100 moneyline dog for Wednesday’s showdown, while the Yankees sit at -110 with a total of 8.5 runs on <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/bookmaker/">Bookmaker Sportsbook</a>.</p>



<h2><strong>The Yanks hope to stay hot down the stretch&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></h2>



<p>The New York Yankees entered the final week of the season holding the top wild card in the American League, one game ahead of the Boston Red Sox and a pair of games ahead of the Toronto Blue Jays. They were also riding a six-game winning streak, scoring 37 runs in the process and yielding just 16 in a return while sweeping Texas at home and Boston on the road.</p>



<p>Over the last couple of weeks, the Yankees have gone 9-3 while posting the third-lowest ERA in baseball (3.07). They’ve scored 62 runs in that span, slashing .269/.348/.494 and posting the third-best OPS in the majors.</p>



<p>Gerrit Cole will get the nod Wednesday, and he’s 2-1 with a 2.74 ERA and 1.00 WHIP in four starts against the Jays this season (23 innings pitched). The 31-year-old righty took a loss in a 5-1 defeat to Toronto on September 7, allowing three runs (two earned) on five hits and a pair of walks across just 3.2 innings of work.</p>



<p>Cole is 16-8 with a 3.08 ERA and 1.04 WHIP in 29 starts this term. He’s struggled over his last two outings, yielding ten earned runs through 11.2 frames, but since mid-August, Cole has registered a nice 3.00 ERA and 2.83 FIP across eight starts and 45 innings.</p>



<h2><strong>The Jays desperately need more from their offense&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></h2>



<p>The Toronto Blue Jays own the third-highest scoring offense in the majors, averaging 5.18 runs per contest. However, over their last 12 outings, the Jays have scored just 43 runs while posting a disappointing .217/.279/.390 batting line.</p>



<p>Toronto recorded four losses in seven games last week. At least, the Blue Jays emerged victorious on weekend, outlasting Minnesota on the road, 6-1 and 5-2.</p>



<p>The Blue Jays’ pitching staff has registered a decent 3.81 ERA, 1.24 WHIP, and a .227 batting average against over the past two weeks. Jose Berrios will take the hill Wednesday, and the 27-year-old righty has gone 5-4 with a 3.50 ERA and 3.51 FIP in 11 starts (64.1 frames) since joining the Blue Jays at the trade deadline.</p>



<p>Berrios met the Yanks on September 9 and took a win in a 6-4 victory at Yankee Stadium. He surrendered two earned runs on five hits and a couple of free passes while punching out eight across 6.2 innings of work.</p>



<p><strong>Trends:</strong></p>



<p><strong>NY Yankees:</strong></p>



<ul><li>4-8 in the last 12 games against Toronto</li></ul>



<p><strong>Toronto:</strong></p>



<ul><li>8-2 in the last ten games at home&nbsp;</li></ul>



<h2 id="h-new-york-yankees-vs-toronto-blue-jays-pick"><strong>New York Yankees vs. Toronto Blue Jays Pick</strong></h2>



<p>This game could easily go either way and with both teams bringing the big guns to the mound, I would stick with the under on the totals. I lean the hosts mostly because of their recent dominance over the Yankees, and the Jays just have to find a way to win if they want to stay alive in the playoff chase.</p>



<p>Both teams are loaded offensively, but the starting pitchers are capable of shutting the opposite side down. The current Jays are slashing .230/.271/.351 in 156 at-bats against Gerrit Cole, while Jose Berrios has allowed a .231/.282/.339 triple-slash to the current Yankees.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Take Toronto Blue Jays +1.5 at -160&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p><strong>The Total:</strong></p>



<p>As I’ve mentioned above, both teams will have a tall task to hit well against Wednesday’s starters even though there are a bunch of sluggers on either side. Furthermore, the Yankees bullpen has recorded a shiny 2.90 ERA and 2.66 FIP over the last two weeks, though the Jays ‘pen has a 4.06 ERA and 5.28 FIP in that span.</p>



<p>The under has hit in 12 of the last 17 meetings between the Yanks and Jays. Eight of the Yankees’ last 12 games went in the under, as well as eight of the Blue Jays’ previous nine contests overall.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Go under 8.5 at -115&nbsp;</strong></p>

<p>The 2021-22 NHL season continues with five games on the Wednesday card, so we are taking a closer look at this Central Division showdown at the United Center in Chicago to get you the best Wild vs. Blackhawks betting pick and odds.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Minnesota has won both contests against Chicago this season, winning 5-1 on January 21 and 4-3 in overtime on January 22. The Wild enter as heavy favorites in that contest at -162 on <a href="https://bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/mybookie/">MyBookie Sportsbook</a>, while the Blackhawks are the favorites when receiving 1.5 goals at -180. The total is set at 6.0 for this contest. Minnesota was the favorite the last time these teams met (-222), but Chicago was able to cover the spread (+1.5, -130). The teams went over the 6.0 total that was set.</p>



<h2 id="wild-enter-contest-on-fire">Wild Enter Contest on Fire</h2>



<p>The Minnesota Wild (27-10-3) enter this contest on a five-game winning streak and they are 8-0-1 in their last nine. The team has scored 24 goals during that five-game winning streak. Minnesota is 6-4 ATS in their last 10, but just 1-3 ATS in their last four.</p>



<p>The Wild completed a sweep of the New York teams on Sunday with a 4-3 victory over the Islanders. Kirill Kaprizov has completely shaken off his early-season slump, recording his 18<sup>th</sup> goal of the season. Kaprizov now has eight points over his last five games, including six assists. He leads the team with 52 points, averaging 1.33 points per contest.</p>



<p>Minnesota has been an absolute beast offensively, third in the NHL in goals per game (3.80) and second in shooting percentage (11.5%). In all 10 January games the team scored at least three goals and finished with 44 goals in the month. However, they have won just three of their last eight games by more than a single goal.</p>



<h2 id="blackhawks-look-for-payback">Blackhawks Look for Payback</h2>



<p>The Chicago Blackhawks (16-22-7) are struggling, losers of two straight games. They are 1-5-1 in their last seven games, including being swept by Minnesota two weekends ago. The Blackhawks are 4-6 ATS in their last 10.</p>



<p>Chicago lost to Vancouver on Monday, 3-1. Connor Murphy had the only goal of the game, scoring when his team was down by two, but an empty net tally secured the victory. Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 29 of 31 shots. Fleury has been solid, going 14-15-3 with a 2.85 GAA and a .910 save percentage. He is simply not getting the type of offensive production he received when he was in Vegas.</p>



<p>The Blackhawks enter this contest with a -39-goal differential, second worst in the division. Chicago is 29<sup>th</sup> in goals per game (2.42) and 27<sup>th</sup> in shooting percentage (8.4%). Dylan Strome has come to life over the last five games, scoring seven total points, but he had just 11 through his first 27 games.</p>



<p><strong>Trends</strong><strong>:</strong></p>



<p><strong>Minnesota:</strong></p>



<ul><li>4-1 in their last five games on the road.</li><li>5-0 in their last five games.</li></ul>



<p><strong>Chicago:</strong></p>



<ul><li>2-6 in their last eight games at home.</li><li>1-6 in their last seven games.</li></ul>



<h2 id="h-minnesota-wild-vs-chicago-blackhawks-pick">Minnesota Wild vs. Chicago Blackhawks Pick</h2>



<p>It is hard to go against a team that is as hot as Minnesota is right now. They are lighting the lamp on a record pace for this team, and have a number of rising stars that are very early in their careers. Plus, you have a Chicago team that is struggling mightily over the last seven contests.</p>



<p>The last time these teams met in Chicago, Minnesota absolutely dominated, winning 5-1. The Wild scored the first five goals of the contest and got an outstanding outing out of Kaapo Kahkonen, who stopped 35 of 36 shots. Until Chicago proves they can beat Minnesota, you have to go with the Wild.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Take the Minnesota Wild at -162</strong></p>



<p><strong>The Total:</strong></p>



<p>This seems like a surprising statistic, but these teams have gone over six goals in five of the last eight contests, with six total goals being scored in a sixth game. Scoring has not been an issue when these two teams have met despite the fact that Chicago has been offensively challenged. They only have four goals against Minnesota this season, but the Wild have produced nine in the two games.</p>



<p>These teams have gone over in four of the last five meetings. Minnesota has gone over in four of their last seven games. Chicago has gone over in six of their last eight games against Central Division opponents while Minnesota has gone over in nine of their last 12 within the division.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Go over 6.0 goals at -120</strong></p>
