Designated hitter Vlad Guerrero Jr., who is the frontrunner for AL MVP, leads Toronto offensively. He ranks among the top of the MLB in several statistical categories with 32 home runs (2nd), 79 RBI’s (2nd), a .326 batting average (3rd), a 1.088 OPS (1st), and 112 hits (6th).
Shortstop Bo Bichette was named an All-Star reserve as he joined 3 of his teammates in Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Marcus Semien and Teoscar Hernández, all of whom were named starters. The Blue Jays had more starters than any other Major League club.
Boston Red Sox
Boston is coming off one of its best series of the season. The Red Sox took 3 out of 4 games at home over their longtime rivals the New York Yankees. On Sunday in the series finale the Red Sox were being no-hit going into the bottom of the 8th down 4-0 but still managed to rally and win 5-4.

Toronto Blue Jays vs. Boston Red Sox MLB Prediction:
Boston starter Garrett Richards has been awful against the Blue Jays this season, posting an ERA near 5 and it’s no surprise he owns an unattractive 5.37 career ERA in 58.2 innings against the division rivals.
Furthermore, Jays’ starter Robbie Ray has been their best starter this season. The right-hander features a stifling 2.10 ERA in his last 4 starts and earned the win in his lone outing at Fenway Park this season.
Take the Blue Jays on the road.
