Toronto Struggling to Regain Traction in the AL East with Texas in Town

Toronto Struggling to Regain Traction in the AL East with Texas in Town

Rangers looking to spoil Toronto’s playoff chances

We know it is early in the second-half, but any team that is four games from first place should be able to beat a team that 21 games out of first. Texas proved that wrong on Friday night with a game one win by a score of 5-1 on the road. Texas will ask Colby Lewis to rebound from a tough season so far and hold Toronto at-bay tonight.

Toronto struggling in the East all of a sudden

The Blue Jays led the AL East for a large portion of the first-half, but fell out of first place right before the All-Star break. Now, they find themselves four games out of first and going nowhere fast. They are dealing with a couple of major injuries right now, including the loss of slugger Edwin Encarnacion. Can they rebound from their struggles and compete in the East? Only time will tell.

When we place bets for the Rangers and the Blue Jays on Saturday afternoon we will do so at Topbet.eu, where the Rangers are listed as underdogs on the road. Despite this, we still like Texas to win the second game of this series. This is why we will bet 10 percent of our bankroll on the Rangers and the OVER nine total runs scored as they take down the Blue Jays again.
