Boston Red Sox vs. Toronto Blue Jays Prediction
I’m on Toronto here. It would be nice to know who Toronto is sending out here although I do think it’s more towards a bullpen game, but I think Toronto gets out of their funk here against a starter in Bello that htey’ve had success against in the past. Bello struggled against Toronto earlier this year and he’s just not in great form right now so I’ll roll with the Blue Jays at home to avoid the sweep.
