The Rays have also won five of Odorizzi’s last six home starts and have cashed in five of his last seven starts versus American League East opponents. They’re also 5-1 in their last six games after losing the first two games of a series and have won six of their last eight games when playing the third game of a series.
OUR PICK: Odorizzi has been stellar at home over the last three years, racking up an 11-10 record and a 2.89 ERA over 196.1 innings pitched. Opponents are hitting just .212 against him at Tropicana Field over his last three seasons while the Blue Jays specifically have hit .220 against him in six starts against him during that time span. At +110, the Rays offer bettors plenty of value.
