The Blue Jays fell to the Rays 4-2 yesterday, a game that saw Toronto as slight favorites with a moneyline of -130 but unable to capitalize on their 54% implied win probability. This American League East matchup sees the 45-55 Blue Jays trying to correct their below-average season against the 51-50 Rays, who are hovering around mediocrity this year.<\/p>\n<p>Toronto will send Yariel Rodriguez to the mound, a right-hander ranked 145th among MLB starters. While Rodriguez has posted a solid <a href=\"https:\/\/evanalytics.com\/mlb\/player-stats\/earned-run-average\">3.67<\/a> ERA, his 4.23 xFIP suggests he has been somewhat lucky and might regress. In his nine starts this season, Rodriguez has a 1-3 win\/loss record and projects to pitch an average of 3.9 innings today, allowing 1.9 earned runs, 3.3 hits, and 1.8 walks. These peripheral indicators highlight the challenges the Blue Jays might face with Rodriguez on the hill.<\/p>\n<p>On the flip side, the Rays will counter with Zach Eflin, a far more reliable starter ranked 33rd. Eflin has a <a href=\"https:\/\/evanalytics.com\/mlb\/player-stats\/earned-run-average\">4.14<\/a> ERA this season but his impressive 3.38 xERA indicates he&#8217;s been unlucky and should improve. With a 5-7 record in 18 starts, Eflin is expected to pitch 5.7 innings, allowing 2.5 earned runs and just 0.9 walks. His low 19.0 K% might be less of a disadvantage against a Toronto lineup that is near the top for least strikeouts in MLB.<\/p>\n<p>Offensively, both teams are struggling. Toronto ranks 21st in batting average and 27th in both home runs and stolen bases. Meanwhile, Tampa Bay&#8217;s offense is 22nd and 26th in batting average and home runs but excels with their 5th rank in stolen bases. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. remains the brightest spot for Toronto, boasting a <a href=\"https:\/\/evanalytics.com\/mlb\/player-stats\/batting-average\">.293<\/a> batting average and 0.841 OPS, while Isaac Paredes leads Tampa Bay with <a href=\"https:\/\/evanalytics.com\/mlb\/player-stats\/home-runs\">16<\/a> home runs and a 0.798 OPS.<\/p>\n<p>The bullpens will also be a factor. Toronto&#8217;s bullpen ranks 23rd, whereas Tampa Bay&#8217;s bullpen is stronger at 12th according to advanced-stat Power Rankings. This disparity could provide the Rays with a crucial edge in late-game situations.<\/p>\n<p>THE BAT X, the leading MLB projection system, gives both teams a 50% win probability, suggesting a tightly contested game. With betting markets setting both teams at -110 on the moneyline, this matchup is projected to be as close as they come. While the Jays aim to bounce back from their latest loss, the Rays look to build on their current momentum.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 3rem 0 0 0;\">Tampa Bay Rays Insights<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong>Zach Eflin &#8211; Over\/Under 18.5 Pitching Outs (+145\/-190)<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">Recording 17.4 outs per game per started this year on average, Zach Eflin ranks in the 82nd percentile.<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0 1.5rem;\"><small><em><strong>Explain:<\/strong> A pitcher who averages more outs per start than his Outs prop may be a good bet to go over, and visa-versa for the under.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong>Ben Rortvedt &#8211; Over\/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-125\/-105)<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">Ben Rortvedt&#8217;s average exit velocity has decreased recently; his 87.6-mph seasonal figure has fallen to 78-mph in the past two weeks&#8217; worth of games.<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0 1.5rem;\"><small><em><strong>Explain:<\/strong> Hitting the ball hard increases the chances of either a home run or the ball landing in fair territory for a hit before a fielder can get to it.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong><\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">Tampa Bay Rays batters as a unit rank in the cellar of baseball this year ( 4th-worst) in regard to their 88-mph average exit velocity.<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0 1.5rem;\"><small><em><strong>Explain:<\/strong> Hitting the ball hard increases the chances of either a home run or the ball landing in fair territory for a hit before a fielder can get to it.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 3rem 0 0 0;\">Toronto Blue Jays Insights<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong>Yariel Rodriguez &#8211; Over\/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-150\/+120)<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">Contrary to popular belief, fastballs are typically a pitcher&#8217;s least effective pitch.
