Result: Win
The set-up: I think the home side bounces back here after yesterday's loss with their ever improving "ace" on the hill. The visitors hand the ball to Wade Miley, while the Red Sox go with Chris Sale.
The pitchers: Miley (4-2, 3.51 ERA) most recently allowed four runs off seven hits with two walks over six innings in a win over the Tigers on May 14th. Unfortunately a date vs. the Red Sox is not what the doctor ordered to get back on track, as note that he's just 2-2 with a 7.13 ERA in four career outings vs. them.
Sale (1-5, 4.24) has returned to his dominant form in May, going 1-0 with a 1.29 ERA over three outings, posting 41 K's and a single walk spanning 21 innings of work. Sale has to be feeling confident here as well as he's 5-2 with a 1.83 ERA in seven career starts vs. the Astros.
The pick: Sale's agonizingly slow start to the season continues to drive the southpaws price down right now. Great value on the surging Sale. Lay the price.
