Red Sox vs Blue Jays Prediction 

Boston came into this series red hot offensively after scoring 36 runs in three games against the Cardinals, but they have scored just three total runs in the first two games against Toronto. The Blue Jays have scored six runs in games one and two, which has been a nice bounce back after a disastrous series in New York. Boston is starting Tanner Houck in this game, who has allowed seven earned runs over 9.2 innings, while Toronto is going with Gausman, who has allowed five earned runs over 11.1 innings. I don’t like what I have seen from Houck in his first two starts, and Toronto has all of the momentum, so give me the Blue Jays here.
