3* graded play on Boston as they host the rival Yankees starting at 7:10 Our proprietary sports handicapping model and simulator shows a high probability that the Red Sox will win this game easily. We also like a 3* on the run line as well. Simply stated, Burnett did not pitch well in Spring training while Lester looks to be back to top form. Burnett is also just 4-21 (-15.5 Units) against the money line as a road underdog of +125 to +150 since 1997. I think you all must remember the public confrontation between Burnett and Posada last August in Fenway. Posada claims this is all behind them, but we certainly disagree. once confidence and trust is lost in any relationship it is nearly impossible to reagin what once might have been. Lester is in far better form and went 15-8 with a 3.41 ERA while finishing third in the AL with a career-high 225 strikeouts. He was superb in his final six home starts, winning four while posting a 1.93 ERA. Lester is 3-1 with a 3.88 ERA in eight starts against the Yankees.
Boston won Sunday night in come from behind fashion and was also a 7* Titan winner. The day off is very good news for the Sox as they are 14-3 (+11.2 Units) against the money line when playing with a day off over the last 2 seasons. Take Boston for 3* amount and also on the run line.
