The Atlanta Braves (64-34) and Boston Red Sox (53-47) open a 2-game set at Fenway Park Tuesday. First pitch is at 7:10 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Braves vs. Red Sox odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.
Season series: Tied 1-1
The Braves have cooled to a degree after spending much of the month as one of the best teams in baseball. They’re just 4-6 over the last 10, but they have won 3 of 4 after a series win over the Milwaukee Brewers over the weekend. Atlanta has been a great road team at 32-15 and is 21-17 in interleague play.
The Red Sox took 2 of 3 from the New York Mets and have been above average of late. They’re 13-7 and 18-14 over the last 20 and 30 games to pull within 9 games in the AL East. They have not announced a starter for Tuesday, but we expect to see RHP Nick Pivetta go in bulk.
