Result: Win
Play: Over
Rating: 8/10*
The over is 4-0-1 in the last five meetings between the Toronto Blue Jays and the Texas Rangers, and we should see plenty of runs in Friday's opener of a three-game series at Rogers Centre.
Mike Bolsinger (0-2, 6.32 ERA) will toe the slab for the Jays. The 29 year old right-hander has given up 12 runs on 17 hits and 11 walks through 15 2/3 innings of work this season.
The Rangers hand the ball to A.J. Griffin (4-1, 5.02 ERA) who was torched by the Tigers at Comerica Park his last time out. Griffin was charged with nine runs on nine hits with four homers through just 3 1/3 frames. He has served up seven homers in his last two starts.
Over is 7-2-1 in Griffins last 10 starts vs. a team with a losing record and 6-2 in Blue Jays last eight games vs. a right-handed starter. We can also note that the Jays are expected to have shortstop Troy Tulowitzki (hamstring) and third baseman Josh Donaldson (calf) back from injury.
