Boston Red Sox vs. Colorado Rockies Prediction
I’m on Boston here. Colorado got the win on Monday but they had a more favorable pitching matchup than what they’re working with in this game. The Rockies are sending out Sullivan and Sullivan’s been questionable at best in his first couple of starts at the major league level and those are starts that weren’t even at Coors Field. I think the Red Sox get to Sullivan here and I think the Red Sox even up the series at one win apiece. Give me Boston.
