Key Factors: Lineups and Ballpark
The Red Sox lineup is filled with left-handed batters, including Verdugo, Yoshida, Devers, Duran, Casas, Valdez, and McGuire. These hitters could potentially cause trouble for Morton, who has a .378 weighted on-base percentage and a .224 ISO against left-handed batters.
Betting Predictions
While the Braves are favored in this matchup, the Red Sox have been successful against right-handed pitching this season. Given the favorable lineup and high-scoring potential, the Red Sox at a nice plus price could be a solid bet.
However, this requires Pivetta to keep the game under control, which might be a challenge. Betting on the over in terms of total runs might be a more confident play for this game.
