<p><em><a href="https://www.betano.ca/sport/baseball/competitions/north-america/128/">Welcome to the Betano: Bets of the Series!</a> We&#8217;re looking at the start of each series for the Toronto Blue Jays, who they are up against, and what we could expect from the next number of games. </em></p>
<p></p>
<p>Cheers to the freakin&#8217; weekend.</p>
<p>And this one will feature the Toronto Blue Jays hosting the Chicago Cubs for a three-game set. It comes amid a weekend where the club will celebrate Jose Bautista bringing his name to the ring of honour.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s dive into the odds.</p>
<h1><a href="https://www.betano.ca/sport/baseball/north-america/mlb-daily-props/190789o/">Betano&#8217;s Official Odds</a></h1>
<h3>To win the series</h3>
<p>Toronto -143; Chicago +110</p>
<h3>Series correct score</h3>
<p>Toronto 2-1 +130<br />
Toronto 3-0 +475<br />
Chicago 3-0 +750<br />
Chicago 2-1 +165</p>
<p>*Odds at the time of publishing. Odds subject to change.</p>
<h1>Projected Starting Pitchers</h1>
<h3>Toronto</h3>
<p>Friday: Jose Berrios<br />
Saturday: Chris Bassitt<br />
Sunday: Hyun-Jin Ryu</p>
<h3>Chicago</h3>
<p>Friday: Javier Assad<br />
Saturday: Justin Steele<br />
Sunday: Jameson Taillon</p>
<h1>The Analysis</h1>
<p>Betano loves the Jays here in this series, and it makes a ton of sense. Beyond Steele, the Cubbies aren&#8217;t rolling out an A+ group of pitchers. They&#8217;re opening the series tonight with Assad out of the bullpen, and Taillon is sporting a career-worst 5.17 ERA this season.</p>
<p>They Jays at -143 to win the series makes sense, and taking them to win the series 2-1 at +130 is a nice number, too.</p>
