5*
(MLB) Miami vs. Boston,
Money Line: -105.00 Boston (Home)
Result: Loss
The Red Sox Brayan Bello is a very good pitcher. Bello has allowed just 2 runs total in his past 2 starts and hasn’t given up more than 3 earned since his first start of the season. He induces a lot of ground balls with his sinker/4-seam/changeup combo which is important for pitching at Fenway Park.
The Miami starter Jesus Luzardo is a solid pitcher, but he’s been blown up in 2 of his past 5 starts and Boston is very good vs lefties at home. Furthermore, the Red Sox have a much better offense when playing at home and have outscored the Marlins overall this season. Expect Boston to take the series finale and avoid the sweep before heading to Toronto. Take the Red Sox.
