Rays just 5-13 in last 18 at home – barely .419 win% at George M. Steinbrenner Field. Jays red-hot on the road – 4-game away streak, now above .500. Momentum is real – gritty 7-6 win over SD, plus 14-0 blowout earlier in week. Road form > home woes. Guerrero Jr. dominates Rays – hitting .444 with 1.504 OPS this season vs TB. Varsho’s locked in – grand slam + clutch triple last game. Jays lineup making consistent hard contact, showing depth even with Santander likely out. Confidence rising daily. Lauer owns a 2.25 ERA this year – trending up despite rough career vs Rays. Rasmussen's 1-4 career record vs Toronto is key – lineup sees him well. Rays can’t protect home turf, Blue Jays playing hungry and confident. They’re surging.
