There is no doubt that Tampa Bay has been a much better team since falling 18 games below .500 in June. The biggest impact has been the pitching as the Rays' staff has allowed 3 runs or less in 26 of their last 33 games. They are continuing to post 0s on the scoreboard, as the staff has not allowed a run in 20 consecutive innings. Toronto has faint hopes of making a run at the second AL Wild Card spot, but the offense has put on the brakes over the last 18 games where the team has compiled a total of 56 runs at 3.1 per contest. The lack of hitting and the quality pitching has left Tampa Bay with an 18-7-2 mark to the UNDER in their last 27 games, and to a total of 7 to 8.5, they stand at 17-5-2 UNDER in their last 24. Buerhle is made for the weekend with none of his last 12 Saturday starts topping the total, and the Blue Jays are also 13-3-1 to the UNDER in his last 17 in game two of a series start, as he goes to school on the opposing team. Play the UNDER in this one.
