The Boston Red Sox will look to complete a four-game sweep over the New York Yankees on Sunday Night Baseball.
While the Red Sox are favored to do so, my Yankees vs. Red Sox props and MLB picks are headlined by Ben Rice and a couple of New York bats.

Yankees vs Red Sox player prop picks
Ben Rice Over 1.5 hits + runs + RBI (-130)
Ben Rice is relied upon to do a lot of heavy lifting with the New York Yankees missing several key bats, and he’s certainly capable of doing so in this matchup.
Sonny Gray ranks in the 55th percentile in xwOBA vs. left-handed bats. Excluding righties in the 60th percentile or higher, Rice has gone Over 1.5 H+R+R in 76.9% of his games — averaging 3.7 along the way.
It hasn’t mattered who is in the lineup — Rice has cleared his line in four of five such matchups without Aaron Judge.
I’d back Rice to -150.
Wilyer Abreu Over 1.5 hits + runs + RBI (-120)
Wilyer Abreu feasts on left-handed pitching. He has hit safely in 18 of 19 games in which he faced a southpaw starter and cleared this line in 13 of them, good for a 68.4% success rate.
Abreu has gotten the job done against almost every non-elite starter he has faced. If the opposing starter ranked in the 80th percentile or worse in xwOBA vs. right-handed hitters, he has gone Over in nine of 10 games.
Drop the ceiling to the 60th percentile — Carlos Rodon sits in the 39th — and Abreu is 5-for-5 in clearing this line.
Play to -140.
Cody Bellinger Over 0.5 singles (-120)
Cody Bellinger is a consistent singles hitter. He recorded at least one in 53% of his games last season and, before a recent five-game dry spell, was sitting above 50% again this year.
Gray has allowed a batting average 20 points higher vs. left-handed hitters than righties, which works in Bellinger’s favor.
Bellinger has also seen his power evaporate of late, posting a 5% barrel rate against Gray’s pitch mix the past 20 games.
Bellinger is -250 for a hit in this game. Given the lack of power we’ve seen, I prefer the single route.
Play to -130.
