Premium Pick

Pittsburgh will look to Johan Oviedo to slow down the Boston offense, which has scored nine runs in each of its first three games, but the Red Sox also have allowed 23 runs. Oviedo appeared in 21 games last season with St. Louis and Pittsburgh and started eight and finished with a .227 opponent batting average and 3.21 ERA. Kutter Crawford went 3-6 with a 5.47 ERA and 1.42 WHIP in 2022 and a had a terrible start to the season with a 9.00 ERA in April and 7.36 in May. The Pirates won on Opening Day, but then their bats went silent the next two games, but they have a good opportunity to bounce back against Crawford and the Boston bullpen, which has allowed eight runs on 20 hits. Take the Pirates.

1.5 units on Pittsburgh +135 (moneyline) (risk 1.5 to return 3.53)
