The long-term trends seem to be signaling that the Toronto Blue Jays might stay in their pattern of playing in higher-scoring games, although they have a tough pitching matchup on Tuesday.
The Blue Jays are the +149 home underdog (bet $100 to win $149) while the Boston Red Sox are a -159 away favorite (bet $159 to win $100) with a 9.5-run total on the <a href="https://www.oddsshark.com/mlb/odds?utm_source=BlueJaysNation&amp;utm_medium=Referral&amp;utm_campaign=Editorial">MLB betting lines</a> for Tuesday at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com. The <a href="https://www.oddsshark.com/mlb/database?utm_source=BlueJaysNation&amp;utm_medium=Referral&amp;utm_campaign=Editorial">OddsShark MLB Database</a> shows that the Blue Jays are 4-13 in their last 17 games as a home underdog, with the total going OVER in 11 of those contests. The Red Sox are 16-4 in their last 20 away games against Toronto, with the total finishing OVER in seven of the most recent eight.

Toronto&#8217;s last 10 homes have had an average total of 11.2, while Boston&#8217;s last 10 away games have had an average total of 10.4.
For the opener of this three-game series, the Blue Jays are starting righthander Trent Thornton (2-5, 4.60 ERA), who has had the total go OVER in five of his seven home starts. Thornton, who didn&#8217;t get past the fourth inning of his most recent start, will have the test of keeping Red Sox hitters off-balance the second time around after pitching against them in a recent series. The Blue Jays should have a rested bullpen as neither closer Ken Giles nor eighth-inning reliever Daniel Hudson has worked in the last two days.
Boston will counter with the veteran lefthander David Price (5-2, 3.36 ERA), whose teams are 11-1 in his 12 career away starts against Toronto, with the total going OVER nine out of 12 times at <a href="https://www.oddsshark.com/sportsbook-review?utm_source=BlueJaysNation&amp;utm_medium=Referral&amp;utm_campaign=Editorial">sports betting sites</a>. Price has long been a Blue Jays killer, owning a 22-3 career record with a 2.37 earned-run average against Toronto.
Sean Reid-Foley (0-1, 4.82 ERA in one start) starts for Toronto on Wednesday opposite Red Sox left-hander Chris Sale (3-7, 3.82 ERA). Sale has a strong record at the Rogers Centre with a 1.60 ERA in nine appearances, while being credited with a 5-1 record.
Marcus Stroman (5-9, 3.18 ERA) is slated to start on Thursday after leaving his most recent start on Saturday with a left shoulder pectoral cramp. Stroman has a commendable 3.44 ERA in 14 career starts against Boston. The Red Sox have not named a starter.
Following the Boston series, the Blue Jays host a three-game set against the Baltimore Orioles before heading into the all-star break.
