The Toronto Blue Jays have had difficulties at home against American League West teams while going through their rebuilding.
Coming off a split of a four-game series with a familiar foe in the New York Yankees, the Blue Jays welcome the Texas Rangers to the Rogers Centre for a three-game series that begins Monday. The Blue Jays are 4-6 in their last 10 home games, but they are also 7-13 in their last 20 home games against AL West teams with the total going UNDER in 12 of those contests on the <a href="https://www.oddsshark.com/mlb/odds?utm_source=BlueJaysNation&amp;utm_medium=Referral&amp;utm_campaign=Editorial">MLB odds</a> at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com.
Rangers at Blue Jays | <a href="https://www.oddsshark.com/mlb/texas-toronto-odds-august-12-2019-1082128?utm_source=BlueJaysNation&amp;utm_medium=Referral&amp;utm_campaign=Editorial">OddsShark Matchup Report</a>
The Rangers may warrant the &#8216;snakebitten&#8217; label as they are 6-14 in their last 20 away contests, with the total going UNDER 13 times, according to the <a href="https://www.oddsshark.com/mlb/database?utm_source=BlueJaysNation&amp;utm_medium=Referral&amp;utm_campaign=Editorial">OddsShark MLB Database</a>, but only three of the contests were against teams that have a sub-.500 record, not unlike the Blue Jays.
Neil Ramirez (0-1, 5.40 ERA, 9.7 strikeouts per nine innings) will be the Blue Jays&#8217; opener on Monday night. The Rangers counter with Ariel Jurado (6-7, 4.74 ERA, 6.7 SO/9). The Rangers are 3-4 in Jurado&#8217;s away starts this season with the total finishing OVER four times.
Left-hander Thomas Pannone (2-5, 6.83 ERA, 8.8 SO/9) starts on Tuesday after allowing seven runs in two-plus innings in his previous outing against the New York Yankees last Thursday. The total has gone OVER in five of Pannone&#8217;s last six starts at <a href="https://www.oddsshark.com/sportsbook-review?utm_source=BlueJaysNation&amp;utm_medium=Referral&amp;utm_campaign=Editorial">sports betting sites</a> where the Blue Jays were the underdog. Texas will start Lance Lynn (14-7, 3.60 ERA, 10.3 SO/9), who has had a large hand in the total finishing UNDER in his last six away starts as well as in nine of his 12 away starts this season.
Wednesday, right-hander Sean Reid-Foley (2-2, 2.36 ERA, 7.8 SO/9) will be one-half of an all-rookie pitching matchup. Reid-Foley has allowed only two earned runs over 14 innings in his last three starts despite playing with fire with 10 bases on balls issued. Foley&#8217;s starts this season have had an average total of 10.2 runs. The Rangers will give left-hander Kolby Allard (0-0, 4.15 ERA, 14.5 SO/9) his second start since being acquired from Atlanta this week.
The Blue Jays will have an off-day on Thursday prior to the three-game series against the Seattle Mariners that will complete their homestand.
