Boston at Philadelphia

The Boston Red Sox are doing a lot better than expected. This is a team that traded and dumped a lot of salaries, and their best pitching option has yet to throw a pitch in Chris Sale. Philadelphia has struggled of late as the Phillies have now dropped four of their last five to slip back to .500. Boston has owned this inter-league matchup as the Sox are 37-19 in the last 56 meetings. That has led to a +22.3% ROI for the Sox over the period. They have fared even better in Philly where they are 22-12 in their last 34, including 11-7 when posted as a dog. Make the play on Boston.
