The set-up: This series features a couple of lop-sided match-ups on the mound and this is definitely one of them. The visitors hand the ball to Nate Eovaldi, while the home side goes with Dylan Bundy.

The pitchers: Eovaldi is so far 5-4 with a 3.38 ERA. He most recently went eight scoreless against the Yankees on Saturday, giving up three hits and striking out four in the commanding performance. Since coming over to "The Evil Empire," Eovaldi has fired 15 straight shutout frames.

Bundy is so far 7-10 with a 4.38 ERA. He most recently gave up two runs off seven hits over six innings in a loss to Texas on Saturday. Over his previous 12.1 frames of work though Bundy was shelled for 15 earned runs. I'm not going to read too much into one decent outing as he's consistently been inconsistent in this spot all year, coming in with a terrible 4-5, 4.95 ERA home record.

The pick: Take it for what you will as well, but Boston is 7-2 in its last nine as a road favorite in the -125 to -200 range. No upsets here as I look for the hard-hitting Red Sox and Eovaldi to come in focused and to take full advantage of this favorable matchup. Lay the price.
