Prop Bets: Oakland Athletics VS Toronto Blue Jays 2025-06-01

The battle of the North vs the not-so-mighty West. The Toronto Blue Jays, with their impressive 7-2 record as favorites with odds of -155 or shorter, are looking to take down the Oakland Athletics, who have a, shall we say, less-than-stellar 35% win rate as underdogs with odds of +130 or more.

The Blue Jays are favored to win, with odds ranging from -155 to -155 across various bookmakers, because, well, they have Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and his .280 batting average, along with Bo Bichette's 31 RBIs and .279 batting average. The Athletics, on the other hand, are relying on Jacob Wilson's .344 batting average and Brent Rooker's 12 home runs to try and pull off the upset.

As for the totals, the over/under is set at 8.0 or 8.5, depending on the bookmaker, with the over priced between 1.87 and 2.0, and the under priced between 1.82 and 1.95. Given the Blue Jays' tendency to hit the over (27 times this season) and the Athletics' similar propensity (31 times), it's likely we'll see a high-scoring affair.

So, who's going to come out on top? Well, I've got my money on the Blue Jays, largely because they're, you know, actually good. But hey, if you're feeling lucky, you could always bet on the Athletics to pull off the upset. Just don't say I didn't warn you.

As for player props, keep an eye on Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s batting average and Bo Bichette's RBIs. If they can keep up their current pace, the Blue Jays should be able to take down the Athletics with ease.
