The Toronto Blue Jays and Boston Red Sox face off on Tuesday in an MLB showdown at Fenway Park. 

The Blue Jays come into this game with a 65-55 record overall and coming into this game they have won four of their last five games. Over the last five games the Blue Jays have given up nine runs total, and they are going to need the Blue Jays pitching to be good in this game. The Blue Jays offense is averaging 4.7 runs per game which is sixth in the league. Vladimir Guerrero has hit 26 home runs and driven in 75 RBIs. 

On the other side of this matchup is the Red Sox who sit with a 60-62 record overall and in the last game against the Baltimore Orioles they were defeated 5-3. Overall this season the Red Sox are averaging 4.9 runs per game which is 12th in the league. The pitching has been the big issue all year for this team giving up 4.8 runs per game. Rafael Devers has hit 25 home runs and driven in 63 RBIs.

The Blue Jays are 4-1 in their last five games overall. The Red Sox are 0-5 in their last 5 when their opponent scores 2 runs or less in their previous game. The under is 4-0 in the Red Sox’s last four home games. The under is 6-1 in the Red Sox’s last seven games against a team with a winning record. 

On the mound for the Red Sox is Josh Winkowski who sits with a 5-6 record and an ERA of 5.19. In his last start against the Pittsburgh Pirates, he went five innings giving up seven hits and six runs. He was just sent down, but has now been called back up to make this start.

Winkowski was awful in his last start giving up six runs, and the Blue Jays have one of the top offenses in baseball. Look for the Blue Jays offense to be too much in this game for the Red Sox. The Red Sox’s pitching staff is ranked 25th in the league, and their average is going to go up in this game. Back the Blue Jays on the money line.
