Stephen Nover's Wednesday Wipeout Winner
(MLB) Boston vs. Toronto,
Money Line: -140.00 Boston (Away)
Result: Win
Money Line: -140.00 Boston (Away)
Result: Win
The Red Sox dominate baseball with an 80-34 record and they dominate the Blue Jays beating them 24 of the past 33 times, including going 11-3 versus them this season. Boston has had little difficulty either at Rogers Centre winning 16 of the past 20 times there.
You usually can't go wrong backing the Red Sox especially when they aren't overinflated which is the case here. The Blue Jays are in a bad state with rumors that their manager John Gibbons will be let go.
The pitching matchup is Brian Johnson versus Mike Hauschild and Boston owns a huge bullpen edge.
The Blue Jays picked up Hauschild after the Astros cut him on July 30. Hauschild had a 4.88 ERA in 19 minor legue starts this season pitching for Houston's Triple A team. He has a 6.43 big league ERA in five appearances. He certainly doesn't project to have success against a potent Boston lineup that leads the majors in runs and batting average.
