If your going to go against a pitcher the quality of Felix Hernandez, you better have a pitcher that can keep your team in the game, and Ricky Romero has been that pitcher for the Blue Jays. He has worked them to a 7-1 mark when he is on four day's rest, and led them to wins in his last four outings as an underdog. The Mariners are not a big offensive team, and rely on pitching to win. They have played in more one-run games than any other AL team with 36. The 23 one-run wins means that this 51-47 team is just 28-70 to a would be -1.5 runline. That puts added value on the Jays here, who I will back on the runline.
