Red Sox vs. Blue Jays Prediction, Winner Payout, Over/Under – Tuesday, August 11

The Blue Jays took the first game of this series on Monday with a narrow 2-1 victory. Their offense continued to struggle, which has been one of the main reasons why they have the worst record in the AL East. They've scored the second-fewest runs and posted the lowest OPS (.679) in baseball.

The Red Sox don’t have great overall hitting numbers for the season, but they have been much better down the stretch. Over the last 30 days, they have the fourth-highest OPS (.781) and also scored the most runs in the majors during that span.
