Blue Jays vs. Rays Picks & Prediction

My selection is on Toronto over Tampa Bay at 1:10 pm et on Thursday.

I'm not sure if any teams has displayed as much resilience as the Toronto Blue Jays over the last month or so. Off a frustrating but encouraging 7-6 loss last night (they trailed that game 7-1), we'll call for them to bounce back once again on Thursday. The starting pitching matchup isn't daunting as Toronto sends Shane Bieber to the hill against Ian Seymour. On a night when they were hoping to get their bullpen some rest, the Rays were forced to put a number of high-leverage arms in action on Wednesday. I simply feel the price is too steep for a Rays team that has been scuffling along on this homestand - yet to win consecutive games through the first six contests. Take Toronto (8*).
