Result: Loss
T.M. Selection: Houston Astros.

I like the Houston Astros to win this game against the Boston Red Sox on Monday. The Astros have looked really good in their games lately, winning 3/4 of their previous 4 games and they have looked really good for a majority of the year now. The Red Sox haven't looked great though and they have had some serious issues with their pitching over the last few weeks. They just lost 2/3 games to the Brewers and they have been giving up a ton of runs in a majority of their games lately. Nathan Eovaldi (4-3, 4.43 ERA) is up for the Red Sox here and he hasn't looked great in his starts lately. He has given up 14 runs in his 2 most recent starts and hasn't pitched more than 10 innings between the 2 games. Luis Garcia (8-6, 3.81 ERA) is up for the Astros here and he hasn't looked great lately, but he isn't pitching badly and he has been a lot better than Eovaldi has looked. I expect Garcia to pitch well against the Red Sox here and I see the Astros putting up a ton of runs on Eovaldi and the Red Sox bullpen here at home. I like the Astros to win this game.

T.M. Prediction: 7-2 Astros.
