Yankees vs Red Sox Prediction

We’ve hit on the Red Sox twice in this series, and we’re getting Crochet at a cheap price. Crochet has a 2.43 ERA and 1.07 WHIP on the season, and he has a 2.52 ERA and .228 allowed batting average in 82 road innings. The Red Sox have won 10 of the last 13 games Crochet has pitched. Warren is having a strong August, but he has a 4.25 ERA and 1.37 WHIP on the season. I’ll side with the Red Sox and the cheap price, as we look for a third straight win with Boston.
