The San Diego Padres had 76% of the consensus love.

The Red Sox and Dodgers were each around 71% with consensus picks.

The Rays and Red Sox were getting solid backing from the betting public as well.

Tampa Bay has moved up about 30 cents but are a ridiculous price of -296.  The trend on the total has been 8 to 9.  The OVER is 7-1-1 in the last 9 meetings in Tampa Bay.

The line on Boston has dropped to -151 and as much as 25 cents at some books from -175.  Toronto is not a very good team, but we would be hesitant about backing the Red Sox on Tuesday.

PITCHING MATCHUP: Red Sox LH David Price (5-2, 3.36 ERA) vs. Blue Jays RH Trent Thornton (2-5, 4.60)

Price is unbeaten in his last nine trips to the mound and earned the victory Tuesday when he allowed three runs (two earned) on eight hits across six innings against the Chicago White Sox. The 33-year-old Vanderbilt product has five quality starts in that stretch and boasts 82 strikeouts to go along with 15 walks in 72 1/3 innings overall this year. Gurriel is 2-for-6 with a double versus Price, who gave up two unearned runs on three hits in five innings of a 12-2 victory against Toronto on May 20.

Thornton strung two quality starts together for the second time this season, including a matchup with the Red Sox on June 21, before giving up five runs over 3 1/3 innings against the New York Yankees on Wednesday. The 25-year-old North Carolina native limited Boston to two runs on eight hits with seven strikeouts across 6 1/3 innings for a no-decision in his first-ever game versus the Red Sox. Michael Chavis and Martinez went 2-for-3 against Thornton, who is 0-3 with a 6.39 ERA in seven home starts.
