What are your thought on the over/under on this game? I think I like the over at 9.5 Both pitchers come into the game with a very high ERA...thoughts? Thanks

No play for the following reasons:
1.) can't possibly play an Over with the way tampa bay has been hitting
2.) Hellickson is the real deal, despite his not great first start of the year him shutting down the Sox if he is on is a real possibility.
For the above I would lean Under
BUT
1.) Great weather for hitting tonight and the Sox hit the ball well this weekend and love batting at home (last night they had tons of hits but stranded many runners)
2.) Dice K Sucks
Therefore no playComment -
What worries me about taking the over is the anemic Rays offense this year. they've score just 2.2 runs per game.
The Sox should score some runs, Hellickson is a solid pitcher, but he won't go deep Boston loves to work the count up, especially on younger pitchers and the Rays shaky bullpen can get in some trouble if they need to toss 4 innings.
I would think the Sox over 5 would be better if you think this will be a high scoring game.Comment
