The Boston Red Sox have been an up and down team all season. Their bullpen is as weak on the back end as it has been in over a decade. They are dealing with injuries in their rotation which forces them to turn to Aaron Cook, who has been a disaster in his two starts with a 9.39 ERA. Hector Noesi has not been getting it done either for the Mariners, but these teams played to a 1-0 verdict last night. History shows that this is a good spot for another low-scoring game, and with a total of 7 to 8.5 Boston has had their troubles of late, winning just two of their last seven. The Red Sox bats have also been hot and cold, and after a loss they have played to an 8-1 mark to the UNDER in their last nine, while Seattle is now 8-3 to the UNDER in Noesi's last 11 starts overall. These teams have played to a 14-5-1 mark to the UNDER in their last 20 in Seattle, and overall the last four have all stayed UNDER the total. Aaron Cook couldn't make it work for the pitching-challenged Rockies where they went 10-20 in his last 30 starts with them. Now in the AL with the Designated Hitter it will only make it tougher to get through a lineup. Play on Seattle and take the UNDER in this one.
