<p><a class="advblue" href="https://www.sportsbettingstats.com/mlb/pitcherlog/79413" title="Ross Stripling Pitching Game Stats">Stripling</a> is 2/9 on quality starts this season and two for his last three.

And over his last five starts, he's allowed eight runs - only six earned - and 25 hits through 30 1/3 innings.</p>

Red Sox at Blue Jays Prediction 6/28/22
We give Wacha the edge in the pitching match-up, and Boston owns the edge in the bullpen comparison. Meanwhile, we'll call the splits with the sticks a wash. From there, the Red Sox are one of the hottest teams in baseball over the last month or so, and they're getting an underdog price. We like the betting value with Boston for Tuesday night.
