Please note that this is coming from a (slightly) biased Toronto Blue Jays fan, but I’m here to tell you that it’s time to place your bets on the Blue Jays to win the World Series!

Before you close this tab and go back to scrolling through Twitter or whatever other social media app you frequent, let me explain myself.

First of all, WynnBET has Toronto’s odds to win the World Series at +2000 (bet $100 to profit $2,000), which is 10th on the odds list. The only team that is currently in a playoff spot that has longer odds is the St. Louis Cardinals at +3000. Just from a betting value standpoint, you have to like the Jays at that price.

Secondly, the Blue Jays have had one of the top offenses in baseball all season. They ranked third in runs per game (5.27), second in team batting average (.267), and first in OPS (.797). They also have the current home run leader on their roster in Vladimir Guerrero Jr.

Finally, while an 84-65 record is nothing to scoff at, they’re actually better than that. Toronto has a run differential of +177, which ranks fourth among all Major League Baseball teams. Only the Dodgers (+249), Astros (+201), and Giants (+181) have a better run differential than the Jays.

That’s right, they have almost as high of a run differential than the team with the best record in baseball, and they’re better in that stat in the AL East leading Tampa Bay Rays.

The Blue Jays have all the ingredients of a championship caliber team. Their only downfall this season has been their inability to win close games as they rank 22nd in close game win percentage. If they can find some ability to be clutch, they can go on a run here and win it all.

As long as you think they can hold on to a playoff spot down the stretch, you won’t find a team with better betting value to win the World Series than the Toronto Blue Jays at +2000 at WynnBET.
