Rockies vs Red Sox Prediction

I’m not excited to back the Rockies, as the Red Sox are the more talented team. However, neither of these teams is playing well, so if forced to pick a side, I’d want the more favorable price. Also, Feltner is a veteran pitcher who is probably more trustworthy than the struggling rookie in Bennett, who has just 20.2 innings under his belt. I doubt Bennett finds his footing in Coors. I’m going to grab the plus money with the Rockies to avoid the juice with a Red Sox team that’s underachieved all season long.
