Cody Bolton is at 5.79 and 1.71, with 8 walks in 9.1 innings. That is traffic before Boston earns anything. Boston already cleared this number twice in the series, winning by 7 and 2 at Fenway.

D.Harris u0.5 Hits+137

There may be some value on Dustin Harris's hits prop. THE BAT X is projecting him to record 0.67 hits, and oddsmakers are implying 0.82. The model believes there is a 51% chance he records fewer than 1 hit. If you can get the under at +137 or better there is great value here. This play is good down to at least +115. Love THE BAT X?
