🇺🇸 Blue Jays vs Rangers – Blue Jays -1.5 Handicap @2.25
Toronto enter this matchup in excellent form, winning 7 of their last 10 and boasting a dominant 41-20 home record. Their offense has been consistent, averaging over 5 runs per game at home, while their pitching—led by Lauer with a 3.38 ERA—has kept opponents in check. They’ve covered the -1.5 line in 6 of their last 8 wins, often pulling away in the middle innings. Texas, meanwhile, have struggled on the road with a 24-36 record and a bullpen that’s been unreliable late in games. Their starter, Corbin, holds a 4.00 ERA and has allowed multiple runs in 4 of his last 5 outings. Against top-tier lineups, Texas has failed to keep games close, losing by 2+ runs in 5 of their last 7 road defeats. Toronto’s home-field advantage, superior form, and pitching edge make the -1.5 handicap a strong play. At odds of 2.25 and fair odds around 1.72, the value margin exceeds +30%, offering both statistical and situational upside. Toronto are well-positioned to win—and win comfortably.
