Red Sox at Blue Jays 7/3/19 - MLB Picks & Predictions

The Red Sox have only a few games to go before the All-Star break and what a better way to finish out the first half of the year by playing the Blue Jays to start the week off. However, one thing the Red Sox do have going for them is they are playing decent on the road this year, but need to break their losing skid. The other downside for the Red Sox is the last 2 meetings between the teams have shown the Blue Jays to be the much better team and able to bring home the win easily.

Heading into this game the main power hitter for the Red Sox on the year has been J.D. Martinez who has hit a total of 18 homers. Xander Bogarets is the leading run producer on the year with 57 RBIs so far. When it comes to hitting for average the Red Sox have relied on Rafael Devers who is hitting at a clip of .322. Freddy Galvis is the leading hitter for the Blue Jays on the year with a .264 average and 40 RBIs. Randal Grichuk has managed to hit 15 homers. Chris Sale has struggled for the Red Sox on the year when it comes to pitching with a 3-7 record and a 3.82 ERA so far. He has managed to get a total of 101.1 innings thrown with 148 strikeouts, but has walked 24 batters and allowed a total of 80 hits on the year so far.

When it comes to the starter for the Blue Jays they are putting Sean Reid-Foley on the mound. He is going to come into the game with a 0-1 record and a 4.82 ERA. He has thrown a total of only 9.1 innings this year with 8 strikeouts, but has allowed 11 hits and walked 6 batters.

The Red Sox are coming into this game with a decent chance of winning if they can figure out how to beat the Blue Jays. However, that could be a challenge for the Red Sox in this game as Sale has really struggled on the year from the mound and that will cost the Red Sox the chance to have a good win in this game. Final Score Prediction, Toronto Blue Jays win 7-3.
