The Toronto Blue Jays (71-85, minus-8.27 betting units) will play their last home game of the season this Wednesday when they face the Houston Astros (98-57, minus-3.54 units) in the finale of a three-game series. Sportsnet and the MLB Network have the first pitch at 7:07 PM ET.
Houston’s pitching rotation is uncertain at press time, but it looks like the Blue Jays will give Sean Reid-Foley (5.40 ERA) one more start this year. Reid-Foley has made six starts since getting called up from AAA-Buffalo in mid-August; he’s 1.24 units in the hole on a team record of 2-4, but he’s also shown plenty of promise, including a 10-strikeout performance against the New York Yankees on September 15. The Jays went on to win that game 8-7 as +200 road dogs.
After hosting the defending World Series champions, Toronto will wrap up their 2018 campaign this weekend with three games on the road against the Tampa Bay Rays. Young prospects like 2B Lourdes Gurriel Jr. (.770 OPS), catcher Danny Jansen (.785 OPS) and 1B Rowdy Tellez (1.204 OPS) should get plenty of action down the stretch as the Blue Jays continue to rebuild for 2019 and beyond.
