Toronto Blue Jays vs. Texas Rangers Prediction

I’m on Toronto here. This is must-win, season on the line kind of game for Toronto in this spot and I think the Jays salvage something. The Jays have been better against right-handed pitching all season long and I think Toronto avoids the sweep. Give me Toronto.
