The Red Sox certainly took out their frustrating trip to Baltimore where they were swept by the O's, and hung a 17 spot on the Angels in the opener. This is an offense that was cold and dormant early, but has now plated nearly 7 runs a game over their last 9. Angels offense not as potent as a year ago, already with 11 games scoring 3 or less runs. The pitching staff has been getting brutalized as well serving up 47 runs in the last 6 games, or just about 8 per contest. Angels have now dropped 4 straight, and have cashed just 2 of their last 10 as a road dog. Sox roaring behind Lester at home as a favorite, with a torid 31-7 mark. I'll go with Boston here.
