Toronto Blue Jays probable pitchers & starting lineups vs. Boston Red Sox, August 6

Winners of six of their last 10 ballgames, the Toronto Blue Jays enter Sunday's contest against the Boston Red Sox with a chance to secure a sweep. Davis Schneider's addition to the Jays lineup has seemed to help things turn up a notch and the wins are coming because of it. Before heading to Cleveland to take on the Guardians for a four-game set, the Jays must swipe one more away from their division rivals at Fenway.

Probable starting pitchers

The Blue Jays are set to send Chris Bassitt to the mound to make his 24th start of the season. The 34-year-old is 10-6 with an ERA right at 4.00 and has been turning in some solid outings as of late. Last time he took the mound, the nine-year veteran went six innings against the Orioles with seven strikeouts.

Left-hander Brennan Bernadino is going to make his sixth "start" of the season for the Red Sox, functioning as an opener. The 31-year-old Indy Ball find has been a solid contributor for the club this year, making 33 appearances with a 2.72 ERA, 2.83 FIP and 172 ERA+ in just over 36 innings of work.
