The Tampa Bay Rays will be aiming to continue their dominance over the Blue Jays when the two sides meet in the third game of their series at the Rogers Centre on Wednesday evening. 

Game one saw Victor Mesa Jr., Cedric Mullins and Nick Fortes all hit homers to help the Rays to a comfortable 7-1 victory, before Fortes and Mesa Jr both hit three run homers in a resounding 12-2 success for the Rays in game two. 

These wins have moved Tampa clear at the top of the AL East table, but with the Yankees just one game back, they will be desperate to continue their winning run over the Blue Jays, ahead of a tricky run of fixtures at the back end of July. 

Meanwhile, the Blue Jays have dropped to 46-54 following those two defeats and have now lost six of their last seven fixtures.

Our Toronto Blue Jays vs Tampa Bay Rays Prediction

The rotation favors the Blue Jays here, but we are still taking Tampa to continue their series dominance. 

The Rays have been in sensational batting form in the opening two games, with Victor Mesa Jr. and Nick Fortes looking especially impressive.

We expect this to be a much tighter contest than the previous two matchups and Toronto are likely to be much improved on defense. However, Tampa are going to be full of confidence following their recent excellent displays, so we are going to back the visitors to pick up another vital win. 

Our prediction for Toronto Blue Jays vs Tampa Blue Rays is: Rays to win.
