We split everything down the middle last night - losing juice. It could have been worse. Some good ones, some bad ones, and we move on. We've got a nice double going tonight and here's and afternoon one - do with it what you will, and good luck as always.
966 TOR (-110) Pinnacle vs 965 TEX |

Analysis: I think the Rangers are in full regression mode. I had to hesitate, not based on the starters, but based on Texas getting those late runs last night. I see that Toronto didn't use Grilli, and Osuna threw only five pitches. So, it looks to me like a pitchers' duel that Toronto's back end has the big advantage. The Jays are about as healthy has they've been this season - and Darvish tends to be feast or famine in that it's fly balls or strikeouts, and in this park against this team that may not be a good thing. At home and against some great hitting teams, Estrada has allowed two HR's in 25 innings and held opponents to a .202 batting average - the Rangers are 8-17 on the road, losers of four straight, and as I said earlier, I think reality is setting in for them. Darvish might make it harder on Toronto than some other starter(s) might, but it won't be enough, IMO.
The big move in this line is because Tulowitzki AND Donaldson are not in the Jays' lineup. Cannot make this stuff up.
