Boston Red Sox Betting Preview

The Boston Red Sox are 1-2 on the year and play the Orioles, Cardinals, and Blue Jays next. The Red Sox have produced a combined four runs in their last two games after scoring five runs on opening day. The Red Sox have lost 13 of their last 16 regular season games when scoring less than five runs. Rafael Devers has struck out 10 times already this season, which has played a major role in the Red Sox offensive issues. Wilyer Abreu leads the Boston Red Sox with 6 hits and 5 RBI, while Kristian Campbell and Alex Bregman have combined for 8 hits and 1 RBI.

Richard Fitts gets the ball for the Red Sox, and he was 0-1 with a 1.74 ERA and 9 strikeouts last season. This will be Fitts’ first career game against the Rangers.

Texas Rangers Betting Preview

The Texas Rangers are 2-1 on the year and play the Reds, Rays, and Cubs next. The Rangers have rebounded nicely from their opening day loss and have gotten it done at both the plate and the mound. The Rangers have won 16 of their last 18 regular season games when allowing four or fewer runs. Josh Jung leads the Texas Rangers with 3 hits and 1 RBI, while Adolis Garcia and Corey Seager have combined for 6 hits and 3 RBI.

Jacob deGrom gets the ball for the Rangers, and he was 0-0 with a 1.69 ERA and 14 strikeouts this season. deGrom is 0-2 with a 2.88 ERA and 35 strikeouts in his career against the Red Sox.

Rangers vs Red Sox Prediction

The Rangers are getting the benefit of the doubt because of what they’ve done in this series and the fact deGrom is on the hill. However, while deGrom is one of the best pitchers of all time when he’s right, he’s pitched in just nine games since 2023. deGrom has dealt with endless injuries and who knows what to expect in his return.

Fitts was sharp last year in a limited 20.2 innings, and he’s a ground ball pitcher who can frustrate a lot of hitters. It’s also only a matter of time before the Red Sox start hitting, especially Devers. The price is a steep one. I’ll take a shot with the Red Sox and the potential big payout.
