Crochet has been good for the White Sox this season but when he leaves the game, their bullpen is awful and Boston is hitting right now with the better lineup. He did lose his last two starts and he has struggled with the better offensive teams in the league this season and he is 3-6 straight up this season after a loss. The White Sox have lost eight straight home games and they are 7-30 against the money line after 2 or more consecutive losses this season. After a blowout loss like yesterday, they are 2-11 straight up in the last few seasons after a loss by 10 runs or more. On the flip side,
Boston is 8-0 against the money line in road games versus AL teams who scored 4.4 or less runs per game on the season this season. Boston is 20-6 against the money line after scoring 9 runs or more over the last 2 seasons.

Criswell has pitched well for Boston, not giving up much in his last two starts. Boston’s offense went off yesterday in the first game and they should ride that momentum into this game with the better pitcher on the mound. The Red Sox have been good on the road, going 5-1 straight up this season with a money line of -100 to -150. They should be able to dominate this game and get back to the plus side with a win here today. Criswell is 3-1 straight up this season on the road too.

Best bet: take Boston on the moneyline (ML).
