Red Sox vs Dodgers Prediction

This should be an interesting matchup, as both May and Buehler have been struggling to find their form this season. The Dodgers have been a mess for much of the second half, so I’m not thrilled to back them in the favorite spot. If anything, this should be a game where Buehler is motivated, as he spent his first seven years with the Dodgers. Buehler is also pitching his best in July, allowing 19 hits and six earned runs in his last 18 innings. Give me the Red Sox and the more favorable price.
