The Toronto Blue Jays’ offense has not lived up to their lofty expectations so far this season, which has made them a pretty consistent UNDER play. The Blue Jays, who rank 13th in runs scored this season, have gone UNDER in 62.9 percent of their games and five straight heading into their game with the Texas Rangers Tuesday.
Marco Estrada, who will start for the Jays Tuesday, has posted a 2.92 ERA while averaging over a strikeout per inning through his four starts this season. Estrada has limited experience against the Rangers, but has a 1.50 ERA in two career starts against Texas.
Lefty Martin Perez, who has been solid yet unspectacular this season, will take the bump for the Rangers. Perez has a quality start in four of his five outings, however, his 4.20 ERA is far from stellar.
