Toronto Blue Jays vs Boston Red Sox Prediction

The Red Sox and Blue Jays have been heading in different directions lately, so the expected pick would be Boston. However, Yesavage has been good this season with a 3.78 ERA, 1.16 WHIP, and a 1.86 batting average allowed. On the road through 36 frames, Yesavage has a 3.25 ERA and .172 allowed batting average. Sandoval has pitched just 9.1 innings this season, and he wasn’t good in his last outing against the Rays. I’m going to take a shot with the Blue Jays given the more in-form pitcher on the mound.
