This game should trend to the over. Both teams have offenses with their metrics in the top ten of the league right now, in OPS, BA, and SLG. Boston is going to face Wrobleski with an ERA over 9. He’s only had two starts this season and has given up 8 runs and 4 homeruns so far, so expect some fireworks and runs from him. The Dodgers also face Bello and he’s been inconsistent this season, not as strong on the road either. In July, he averaged giving up 3 runs per game and at least a homerun on average in each game. The Dodgers can certainly get to him and this game is going to open up the Dodgers offense in this series. This game should see more runs and over the total has good value in this spot. The total has gone Over in 5 of the Dodgers' last 6 games against Boston. The total has gone Over in 6 of the Dodgers' last 8 games at home.

Best bet: take the Over the Total.
