Blue Jays vs Red Sox Prediction

Crochet is coming off a shaky performance in his last outing against the Mariners, but he’s still allowed just six earned runs in his last 32 innings. Crochet has been one of the hottest pitchers in baseball in the month of April. Francis has been respectable as well, allowing 11 earned runs in 27.2 innings while racking up 22 strikeouts.

However, the Blue Jays have lost seven of their last eight games and aren’t stringing together offense. The Blue Jays have scored four or fewer runs in each of their last 10 games. The Blue Jays are 6-14 this season when scoring four or fewer runs. I need to see the Blue Jays get their act together before I can trust them most nights, especially against good teams. Give me the Red Sox.
