DUNEDIN, Fla – The Toronto Blue Jays will “host” the Boston Red Sox on Thursday night in the final game of a three-game series. The Blue Jays are narrow favorites in the matchup which brings some good betting value on some alternate lines.
Boston Red Sox -1.5 (+170)
Despite the Boston Red Sox being underdogs on sports betting sites, there’s a good chance that they can win this game by a good margin.
Boston has Nick Pivetta on the mound who is 5-0 this year with a 3.16 ERA and 1.17 WHIP. They will be facing Steven Matz who has a 4.29 ERA and 1.29 WHIP. The pitching advantage seems to side with the Red Sox.
Matz is a left-handed pitcher, and the Red Sox have the fourth-highest batting average against lefties this season with a .276.
Online sportsbooks may not only have the wrong team favored, but we could see the underdog win by a wide margin.
