The Boston Red Sox bookie will want to reduce losses this year by requesting a quote from an offshore Pay Per Head company that offers impulse options such as live in-play wagering and an online casino.

Heading into the series with the Seattle Mariners, the Red Sox were still fighting with Baltimore atop the AL East with a 37-28 record and one game out of the lead in this division.

The OVER was 8-0-1 in the last 9 meetings in Boston and 15-5-2 in the last 22 meetings.  In Boston, the last five games had gone into double digits.

The Red Sox Starting Pitchers:

Roenis Elias - (0-0, 16.20) - FRIDAY JUNE 17 - Elias is expected to be called up and start Friday's game against the Mariners, Tim Britton of the Providence Journal reports. (Tue Jun 14).  Elias has limited left-handed hitters to a collective .224 batting average in his career, a big reason why he earned the nod versus Seattle.

Rick Porcello - (7-2, 3.81) - SATURDAY JUNE 18 - Porcello has permitted four or more runs in three of his last four starts.  Two of those starts resulted in a total of 19 runs when all was said and done.  Another game ended with eight runs and another with eleven.

David Price - (7-4, 4.52) - SUNDAY JUNE 19 - Price (7-4) allowed three runs on five hits and struck out 11 over eight innings in a tough loss Tuesday to the Orioles. (Tue Jun 14).  He has not allowed more than 3 runs to be scored since May 7.

Baseball News

Chris Paddack Player Prop Bets

Paddack recorded 10 strikeouts over seven shutout innings on Monday in a win over the White Sox. Prior to that start, Paddack was obliterated by the Orioles, allowing nine runs on 12 hits in 5 1/3 innings.

Zach Eflin Player Prop Bets

Zach Eflin has great value in fantasy leagues for the April 26 game against the lowly Chicago White Sox.  Betting on Eflin and the Tampa Bay Rays might make sense if not for the -210 price tag.

Trevor Williams Player Prop Bets

The Nats Trevor Williams held the Astros to one run with four strikeouts across six innings in a no-decision on Saturday.  And the betting public was eating him up at a near 80% clip.
