On the surface this total seems crazy for 2 powerhouse teams but look further and this should be an under and maybe another easy one. Betts wont play as he was put on the DL, that could really hurt the Sox on offense.
Bos is 12-18 O/U on the road this year
Hou is 9-19 O/U at home this year
Combined 21-37 O/U (36.2% OVER)
Price has a better road ERA than at home and is 1-2 O/U in his last 3 games
Verlander has god-like stats this year with a home ERA of 1.77 and 0-3 O/U in his last 3 and 2-10 O/U on the year.
The total is low and this is scary for an AL game but with this pitching matchup and Betts out I feel its a good spot play.
