The Boston Red Sox have won four straight games and eight of their last 10. Despite their success, the Chicago White Sox are -115 favorites on Wednesday night.
With Jake Bennett on the mound, my Red Sox vs. White Sox predictions and MLB picks are happy to take the underdogs on July 8.
Who will win Red Sox vs White Sox today: Red Sox moneyline (-105)
Jake Bennett is quickly emerging as a high-end starter for the Boston Red Sox. He has allowed two runs or fewer in five of seven games, only struggling against the AL East leading Rays.
He has been especially effective over the last month, sporting a 2.09 xERA and allowing hard contact just 29.8% of the time.
Bennett gives the Red Sox a clear pitching advantage over Davis Martin and the Chicago White Sox.
Martin owns a 4.89 xERA the past month and a sky-high 25.3% line drive rate.
I see value backing the Red Sox to -115.
COVERS INTEL: Martin has allowed a lot of good contact, ranking in the 12th percentile in hard hit rate.
Red Sox vs White Sox Over/Under pick: Under 8.0 (-110)
Runs should be hard to come by in this one.
Bennett has posted a 3.72 xERA or better in six consecutive starts and draws a White Sox team sitting 28th in wOBA vs. lefties over the past month.
While Martin hasn’t pitched as well of late, his struggles have come on the road. He’s been lights out at home this season, posting a remarkably strong 0.88 ERA and 2.14 FIP.
With rested bullpens behind each starter, both managers have plenty of tools to limit the opposing offenses.
Play the Under to -115.
- ML/RL bets: 53-42, +1.85 units
