#923/924 ASA PLAY ON Under 7.5 Runs – Toronto Blue Jays at Atlanta Braves, Friday at 7:20 PM ET - Toronto has lost 6 of 8 games and 2 outliers in the bunch were very high-scoring games for Toronto but in the other 6 the Blue Jays averaged only 1.7 runs scored per game! The Braves have also been struggling at the plate. Atlanta is on a 3-4 run last 7 games and has scored an average of only 2.2 runs in most recent 5 games. Braves starter Max Fried has allowed only 13 hits in 19 innings over his 3 starts and those were against tough teams as well with facing the Phillies twice and the Twins once. Toronto is going with Kevin Gausman here and he is 7-4 with a 2.52 ERA on the road this season. Also, Gausman is in great current form with a 5-2 record and a 3.23 ERA since the All-Star break and opponents hitting only .198 against him since the break. More of the same is expected here. 15 of the last 20 games started by Fried have seen totals runs scored of 7 or less. Gausman has allowed a total of just 8 earned runs in last 5 starts. Our computer math model is projecting 5 to 6 runs here and even if it gets to 7 that is still a winning ticket for us. We are going with the Under in this one.
