St. Louis Cardinals vs Boston Red Sox: YRFI (-122)
One game I envision some early scoring comes in Boston, between the Red Sox and the visitng Cardinals. This game will feature two struggling left-handers who try to battle the Green Monster in hitter-friendly Fenway Park. Steven Matz and Chris Sale will each make their 8th start for their respective teams, and neither pitcher is off to a hot start. Matz has a 5.70 ERA to go along with a 1.60 WHIP, while Sale is off the worst start of his career. Sale has most certainly been unlucky at times, as his 4.39 xERA is nearly 2 runs lower than his 6.37 ERA, but we're used to seeing Sale closer to his career 3.10 ERA.
