#931 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* Toronto Blue Jays -1.5 -125 on Run Line over Washington Nationals, Tuesday at 7:05 PM ET - The Nationals have lost 12 of 13 games. The Blue Jays have won 13 of 19 games. Of course this, plus a big starting pitching edge, has a lot to do with the factors behind why Toronto is a huge money line favorite in this game by odds of about 2 to 1. We would not suggest laying a price like that but we do like the Blue Jays on the run line here. Though the Nationals have had a fair number of one-run losses recently, the Blue Jays have been the masters of the big wins this season. Incredibly, Toronto has had only 8 wins by a single run margin this season and this is a team that has won 63 games on the year! 87% of the Blue Jays wins have been by 2+ runs so if you like them to win the better value, by far, has been with the run line in their games this season. Toronto starter Alek Manoah is 5-1 with a 2.59 ERA in 11 starts this season. Manoah is 3-0 with a 1.93 ERA in his last 3 starts. Washington starter Erick Fedde is 4-8 with a 5.12 ERA in 19 starts this year. Fedde has allowed 33 earned runs in 40 innings over his last 9 games for a 7.43 ERA since late June. The Jays bullpen has a 3.46 ERA on the road this season and the Nats bullpen has a 4.59 ERA at home this season. Per our computer math model an easy win for the road team by a multi-run margin is showing as a likely end result in this one. Adding to the value here is the fact that our play on team is available in a very affordable -125 price range on the run line. Take Toronto Blue Jays -1.5 on the run line.
