Logan Webb vs. TBA

Logan Webb (7-6, 3.16 ERA) is putting together another strong season and is eating up plenty of innings. Webb threw at least seven innings in five of his last six outings and gave up four runs (three earned) on five hits and two walks over five strikeouts over seven innings of work in an 8-5 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks.

The Blue Jays have yet to announce a starting pitcher for this matchup, though Trevor Richards (0-1, 3.53 ERA) could be in line for a start to likely serve as the opener. Bowden Francis was a recent call up and could potentially get some work in as well as a few of the pitching options to consider.

We don't know what to expect from the Blue Jays yet, but we know what to expect with the Giants. These are two top-10 offenses in on-base percentage, but Webb has been as reliable as it gets over the last three seasons. He should be able to limit Toronto enough to keep the total below this number.

Pick: Under 8.5

It's tough to make a prediction without knowing a team's starting pitcher, but the Blue Jays starter is unlikely to be as good as Webb. These are two even offenses, but the Giants should have the edge on the mound to pick up a victory on Wednesday night.
