This is a 5* play on the Boston Red Sox.
This is a mismatch of epic proportions, which makes this a price in which we have no issues at all in laying:
Chris Sale: He's 8-3 with a 2.82 ERA. Sale most recently gave up one run off four hits and a walk while striking out ten in a loss to Philadelphia on Thursday. Sale has to be frustrated about that, as he was out pitched by rookie Nick Pivetta in that one. Regardless, the southpaw also sports an elite 0.93 WHIP and 12.4 K/9.
Matt Strahm: He's 2-3 with a 3.67 ERA. Strahm most recently went five scoreless against the Angels on Thursday, coming through with a victory in his first major league start.
The bottom line: No need to overthink this one. The Red Sox are looking to bounce back after yesterday's 4-2 defeat and have to be feeling pretty confident in this spot as they're already 20-10 (+7.2 units) this season after a loss. KC has looked a lot better of late, but we think it's important to point out that it's just 7-10 (-2.1 units) against left-handed starters this year. Strahm may go on to have a great career in the big leagues, but Sale comes into this one as arguably the hottest/most consistent pitcher on the planet right now. Lay the price with confidence, play on BOSTON.
