Red Sox vs Tigers MLB Pick to Make
Story has quietly been one of the steadiest bats in Boston’s lineup to begin the season, recording 29 hits so far while consistently putting the ball in play. He comes into this matchup in excellent form, having cleared this line in each of his last five games.
The longer sample is just as encouraging. Story has gone over this number in eight of his last 10 games, showing a level of consistency that stands out for a prop set at only 0.5 hits.
