Best Bet: Red Sox +1.5 (-140*)
Moneyline: Red Sox (+140*)
Over/Under: Under 9 (+100*)

Best Bet: Red Sox +1.5 (-140*) has a 64% probability

It’s not been a start that the Boston team would have wanted, winning only 6 out of their first 20. They’ll need to get back on track fast if they’re any chance of making the postseason. Our predictor says they might shock today.

Moneyline: Red Sox (+140*)

Part of the reason our prediction model is on Boston today is because of the New York starting pitcher, James Paxton. Paxton has had an incredibly bad start to the year, giving up 16 hits from just 10 innings pitched. We believe this is the time for Boston to cause an upset.

Over/Under: Over 9 (+100*)

Lots of runs yesterday but we are expecting a low scoring affair today. Look for Boston to try and keep things tight.

Dimers' take-out

An upset is in the air today. Will James Paxton shake off his early season rust? If he doesn’t, bettors might just be able to cash in.
