    Fade the Red Sox Sunday...

    ...here's why:

    Road favorites on 8 game winning streaks are 5-13 (-13.5u, -51.3% ROI) last 8 years.

    Home dogs with lines greater than +130 in game 3 of a series are 128-137 (+60.7u, 22.9% ROI) last 8 years where they lost the previous game.

    Lies, damn lies and statistics.

    Hmm, I was thinking the exact opposite TBH. Drabek's BB per inns and BB/K ratio is atrocious. Gotta fancy the hot Red Sox bats to punish multiple free passes. Also, the over looks pretty tempting on this one.

    I'm thinking the opposite too. The bats are hot for the Red Sox. You ride this team out until they lose.

    I think the Red Sox are too hot to fade at this point, as they continue to make up for that atrocious start. Maybe this information makes it a no bet, as most baseball should be on Sundays. ha.
    good luck.

    The Red Sox will hit an inevitable wall, and lose like 4 straight as they have all year, starting today.
