Red Sox vs. Blue Jays: The Boston Red Sox continue their road trip with a visit to the Toronto Blue Jays. The opening clash of the three-game series takes place at Rogers Center on Monday night.

Following the dismissal of Alex Cora , interim Red Sox manager Chad Tracy made a winning start to his tenure. As a result, they claimed the series against the Baltimore Orioles despite losing the opening game. Boston comes into this series with an 11-17 record.

Despite having a very difficult opening month to the 2026 campaign, the Toronto Blue Jays are in good shape. They have five wins from the last seven games after taking the series at home against the Cleveland Guardians. At present, the Blue Jays have a 12-15 record for the season.

Dylan Cease is going to take the mound for the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday. The 30-year-old right-hander produced an outstanding first month after joining the team on a bumper deal this winter. He pitched 25.2 innings in five appearances thus far with a 2.10 ERA and 44 strikeouts.
