THE PLAY: BOS ML

Considering the BAL bullpen has actually been serviceable, there is an argument to be made for an F5 play. However, given the way the Red Sox relievers have thrown lately, I’ll take the extra ABs over the last four innings. This game is being listed as heavy chalk, so stay tuned for a second play posted by @MLBMovingAvg at WINDAILYDFS.COM for a potential parlay to smooth out some of those odds.

That being said, anytime the Red Sox are hitting while Sale is humming, BOS RL -1.5 should definitely be in consideration. This will help to even out the odds when weighed properly with a chalk ML play.
