- My 10* LEGEND is on the Red Sox.
I think Boston will bounce back here after yesterday's 7-2 loss.
Boston has won seven of its last ten overall. It took the first game of this series with the Jays 6-5, before yesterday's setback.
These teams actually play again tomorrow here as well to conclude the four-game series. After that Boston hits the road for two weeks.
The Jays have won six of their last ten, and they hand the ball to Robbie Ray (3-2, 3.36 ERA), who took a no-decision against the White Sox on Tuesday, allowing one run over six innings while striking out 13. Ray's been great overall this year, but if he's had one tiny knock against him, it's been his performance on the road where he's 0-1 with a pedestrian 3.91 ERA.
The home side counters with Martin Perez (4-3, 3.88), who gave up six runs over two innings in a loss to the Astros in his last outing. Previous to that he went eight scoreless against Houston.
Overall though Perez is enjoying a resurgent season, and interesting to note that he's been particularly effective in all "day" games this season, going 2-0 with a tiny 0.99 ERA thus far.
Ray has been great, but regression seems imminent for the Jays' overacheiving starter in my opinion.
And Perez looks primed for a bounce-back here in front of the home town crowd, as does his team, which enters having gone 7-2 in its last nine in trying to avenge a five runs or greater home loss to an opponent.
Great value on the hungry home side here!
Good luck...Larry
