We’re entering the fourth season of the annual South Point-lined Play of the Day competition, effective July 1.
Starting bankrolls have reset to $10,000, with the maximum bet being to win $1,000 and the minimum wager $300. Ray Brewer won back-to-back titles in the 2015-2016 and 2016-17 seasons, after Taylor Bern prevailed in 2014-2015.
Toronto Blue Jays plus-170 at Boston Red Sox: $500 to win $850: When these two teams met last week, the Red Sox swept a three-game series in Toronto to move to 76-57 on the season. But the Sox have done an about-face since then, dropping three of four to the New York Yankees and losing the first of another three-game set to Toronto on Monday night. The problem for Boston has been the bats — the offense has scored just 13 runs in those five games (2.6 runs per game). So, I like Blue Jays starter Marco Estrada tonight, even though he has been bad for most of this season (7-8, 5.23 ERA, 1.45 WHIP).
With the Sox struggling to score, I like the potential payout for the underdog Blue Jays. Let's hope the Boston bats stay silent for another night at least.
Current Standings: Granger (6-6, $11,595), Keefer (7-4-1, $11,185), Grimala (2-1, $10,595), Brewer (6-7, $8,660)
