Toronto at Detroit

The Toronto Blue Jays are in the toughest division in baseball, the AL East. Unfortunately they are in last place as they have a losing record. They have a losing record vs. non-divsion opponents as well as division opponents Totronto took game 1 from Detroit last night. The Jays will turn to Alek Manoah for tonight's game. Manoah has been a disappointment of late as in his last 16 decisions Toronto is just 5-11. Detroit will turn to Matt Manning. Manning has been pitching very well of late as Detroit has won six of his last 10 decisions. I think the Tigers have an edge on the mound in this one. Make the play on Detroit. Also take the UNDER. Toronto is averaging just 3.9 runs per game (3.5 in 26 road games) while Detroit is averaging 3.5 runs per game at home. Since last season, the Blue Jays are 34-19 UNDER vs. AL teams scoring under 4.5 runs per game. Over that same span they are 54-36 UNDER when they are favored at odds up to -150. Toronto is also 14-5 UNDER this season to a total between 8.5 and 10. Meanwhile, Detroit is 16-5 UNDER the past three seasons at home after allowing 9+ runs last game. Back the Tigers and the UNDER here.
