The absence of an announced starting pitcher aside &#8211; following an off-day, no less &#8211; the Toronto Blue Jays have some favorable history at home against their next opponent.
The Blue Jays are the -120 home favorite (wager $120 to win $100) while the Kansas City Royals are a +100 home underdog (wager $100 to win $100) with a 9.0-run total on the <a href="https://www.oddsshark.com/mlb/odds?utm_source=BlueJaysNation&amp;utm_medium=Referral&amp;utm_campaign=Editorial">MLB odds</a> for Friday 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 12-5 in their last 17 regular-season home games against the Royals, with a down-the-middle 8-8-1 split on totals. The Royals, who are also in a retooling phase, are 2-10 this season as an away underdog of +100 to +150 on the moneyline.
Royals at Blue Jays | <a href="https://www.oddsshark.com/mlb/kansas-city-toronto-odds-june-28-2019-1079343?utm_source=BlueJaysNation&amp;utm_medium=Referral&amp;utm_campaign=Editorial">OddsShark Matchup Report</a>
The total has gone OVER in six of the Blue Jays&#8217; last nine home games, with an average total of 11.1 runs. The total has gone OVER in just four of the Royals&#8217; last 10 away games, with an average total of 8.7 runs.
While it might be a bullpen day for the Blue Jays, the Royals are giving the start to lefthander Danny Duffy, who has a 3-3 record with a 4.48 earned-run average in 11 starts this season. The Blue Jays are 12-17 against lefty starters this season.
Marcus Stroman (5-9, 3.04 ERA) and Homer Bailey (7-6, 4.61 ERA) are the scheduled starting pitchers for Saturday. Stroman has a 1.89 ERA over his last three starts but Bailey has been even more airtight; his ERA over his last three starts is a stingy 0.47.
Aaron Sanchez (3-10, 5.89 ERA) starts opposite the Royals&#8217; Brad Keller (3-9, 4.32 ERA) on Sunday. The total has gone UNDER in both five of Sanchez&#8217;s last seven home starts as well as six out of Keller&#8217;s last eight away starts.
Left-hander Clayton Richard (0-4, 6.89 ERA) starts for the Blue Jays on Monday against righty Glenn Sparkman (2-3, 4.07 ERA). Toronto is 2-5 in Richard&#8217;s seven starts but the total has been either UNDER or a push five times.
Friday&#8217;s game is the start of a 10-game Blue Jays homestand which will continue next week with three-game series against the Boston Red Sox and Baltimore Orioles.
