Preview
The Toronto Blue Jays and the Boston Red Sox will meet again to play a 3-game series at the Rogers Centre. The Red Sox swept the Guardians and have won 7 straight games while the Blue Jays lost 2 of 3 games against the Brewers but they're 5-2 against the Red Sox so far this season.
Boston Red Sox
The Red Sox get to this game with a 42-31 record and have won 8 of their last 10 games. The team is averaging 4.7 runs and allowing 3.9 runs per game. Rafael Devers is leading the team with 17 home runs and 45 RBI while JD Martinez is batting for .335 AVG.
Nick Pivetta leads the team with 8 wins recorded with a 3.25 ERA and 86 strikeouts.
Probable Pitcher:
Connor Seabold (0-0, 0.00 ERA) will be on the mound for the Red Sox in the 1st game of the series. For Monday's game in Toronto, the Red Sox will call up Seabold from Triple-A Worcester. He has a 2.09 ERA and 1.00 WHIP in 51.2 innings pitched over 11 starts for Worcester in 2022.
Toronto Blue Jays
The Blue Jays get here with a 40-32 record and have lost 4 of their last 6 games. The team is averaging 4.7 runs while allowing 4.3 runs per game. Vladimir Guerrero Jr leads the team with .268 ERA, 43 RBI and 17 home runs.
Alek Manoah leads the team with a 2.05 ERA and 79 strikeouts recording 9 wins for the Jays.
Probable Pitcher:
Kevin Gausman (5-6, 3.19 ERA) will be on the mound for the Blue Jays in the 1st game of the series. In six innings, Gausman had seven strikeouts while giving up two runs on seven hits and two walks. He didn't factor in the decision of Tuesday's 7-6 loss to the White Sox. He is 5-8 with an ERA of 4.01 and 99 strikeouts in 22 appearances versus the Red Sox in his career.
BETTING TRENDS
Boston are 12-2 SU in their last 14 games on the road.
Boston are 1-4 SU in their last 5 games when playing on the road against Toronto.
Toronto are 3-7 SU in their last 10 games.
The total has gone UNDER in 5 of Toronto's last 7 games against Boston.
Prediction
The Blue Jays have lost 7 of their last 10 games but the offense is is still responding as they are scoring 5.3 runs per game in the last 10 games. They'll Kevin Gausman for this game and he hasn't been as great as last year. The Red Sox are on fire right now but they will send the rookie Seabold to start this game and although he has done a great job in the minors he will have a tough test against the Blue Jays hot offense. Despite how the Red Sox are playing right now I don't know how the rookie will perform and Gausman has dominated the Red Sox this season. Take the Blue Jays.
PICK: Blue Jays -1.5 (+110)
