AL GAME OF THE WEEK | TOP-RATED MLB MAJOR WAGER
(MLB) Boston vs. Texas,
Money Line: -118.00 Boston (Away)
Result: Loss
The Boston Red Sox have won three in a row and six of their last nine games. The Texas Rangers have dropped five in a row, and they're averaging only 4.04 runs per game (23rd) on the season which can be compared to Boston's 4.96 rpg (6th).

Red Sox left-hander Martin Perez (0-1, 5.71 ERA) has had a less than ideal start to the year, but note that the team is 3-1 in his four starts and Texas has been hitting only .221 against southpaws.

The Rangers hand the ball to veteran right-hander Kyle Gibson (2-0, 2.30 ERA) who has allowed only two runs through his last four starts, so I think he's due to get lit up. Gibson can not count on much back up from one of the worst bullpens in baseball while Boston has a top-10 bullpen.

Rangers are 1-5 in their last 6 games as an underdog.
