Verdict
Both teams are in good form heading into this one, but Boston have had New York’s number recently, winning five of the last six this season.
And while Schlitter boasts Cy Young-winning numbers, he has been struggling at home in recent times, so the Red Sox make for an appealing pick with the plus-money.
