Free MLB Pick
The Red Sox started their home stand out okay taking two of three against Toronto, but have since gone on a tail spin winning one of six. They faced tonight’s starter in that home stand and got the win, but Sanchez didn’t have a poor outing pitching 5 2/3 allowing 4 runs (3 earned) on 5 hits and fanning 7 batters. In his career he has done well against them holding them to a BA of .184 and and an OPS of .560 in limited at bats (38). Toronto while not hot split a series against Cleveland 2-2 and won a series against the Yanks 2-1 since they left Beantown for a 4-3 record. They don’t have a ton of bats against the lefty Wade Miley but have had success in the ones they had hitting .333 with a .767 OPS. They’ve feasted on left-handed pitching this season hitting .299 while scoring 5.36 runs per 9 innings.
