Why This Trend Exists
The Blue Jays' exceptional performance as home underdogs following victories stems from a potent combination of psychological momentum and market inefficiency. When Toronto wins on the road or as home favorites, oddsmakers often overcompensate by inflating the opposing team's line in the subsequent home game, particularly when facing perceived stronger opponents. This creates artificial value on a Blue Jays squad that enters with confidence intact and the comfort of their home ballpark. Rogers Centre's unique dimensions and artificial turf surface provide Toronto with subtle but meaningful advantages that casual bettors and even some sharps underestimate. The team's hitters historically perform better at home, while visiting pitchers often struggle with the venue's sight lines and playing conditions. Additionally, the Blue Jays' organizational philosophy has consistently emphasized building lineups capable of explosive offensive outbursts, making them particularly dangerous when catching inflated numbers. The psychological element cannot be understated - teams entering as home underdogs after wins often play with a "nothing to lose" mentality while maintaining the confidence boost from their recent success. This creates an ideal storm for covering spreads. This trend carries the most weight when Toronto faces American League East rivals or high-profile opponents where public perception drives the line movement most dramatically.
