Texas Rangers @ Toronto Blue Jays Preview

The Toronto Blue Jays (71-51) are set to host the Texas Rangers (61-61) at Rogers Centre in what promises to be an intriguing matchup. The Blue Jays come into this game in strong form, boasting a 6-4 record over their last 10 games and averaging an impressive 6.4 runs per game during that span. Their offense has been potent, and their overall record reflects a team with serious postseason aspirations. At home, Toronto has been particularly dominant, holding a 40-20 record this season.

On the other side, the Texas Rangers are navigating a challenging stretch, having lost 7 of their last 10 games and averaging a modest 3.4 runs per game. Despite their struggles, they feature an elite arm in Jacob deGrom, who will take the mound for Texas. deGrom holds a stellar 10-5 record with a 2.86 ERA and a 0.95 WHIP, showcasing his ability to dominate opposing lineups. For the Blue Jays, Chris Bassitt (11-6, 4.17 ERA) will get the start. While Bassitt is more hittable than deGrom, he is certainly capable of delivering a quality outing.

Pick: Toronto Blue Jays Moneyline

Considering the current form and home-field advantage, the Toronto Blue Jays moneyline at -105 [BetRivers] presents a compelling pick. The Blue Jays have been exceptional at home this season with a 40-20 record, and their recent offensive surge (6.4 runs per game in their last 10) contrasts sharply with the Rangers' recent struggles (3.4 runs per game in their last 10). While Jacob deGrom is a formidable opponent on the mound for Texas, Toronto's overall team performance and home dominance give them the edge. Computer predictions also favor the Blue Jays, projecting a 5-4 victory and giving them a 55.1% win probability. Furthermore, sharp money analysis indicates a slight lean towards the Blue Jays covering a small spread, reinforcing confidence in their ability to secure a win at home.
