Red Sox minus 1 1/2 runs minus $1.05 (run line) hosting White Sox Neither team is playing well. Boston is at least mediocre. The White Sox are just plain terrible, especially on the road where they are 28-50. I see a kill spot here for the Red Sox with prideful Chris Sale getting the start. […]

They aren’t officially eliminated – yet. That’s caused the oddsmaker to inflate this matchup. But realistically the Golden Knights are dead. So I’m going to take this huge price with […]
