St. Louis @ Boston picks

The Red Sox made a huge splash this offseason by signing Alex Bregman, one of the best third basemen in the sport. The veteran has had a hit in all but one game so far in the 2025 season, but Thursday was evidently his coming-out party. Bregman went 3-for-4 against the Orioles with his first home run while smacking two doubles and collecting his first three RBI of the year as well. That’s my focus here. As we know, hitting is contagious. When you’re confident at the dish, it can easily carry into the next day. Bregman just tore the cover off the baseball. He only has one career at-bat versus Erik Fedde, who will start today for the Cardinals. That being said, Bregman slashed .286 last season against St. Louis with two hits and an RBI.
