Preview · MLB
ouston Astros visit Boston Red Sox Saturday at 5/2 - 4:10 PM EDT.
Vegas opened BOS as a 1.5-point favorite with the total at 9.0. BOS's moneyline implies a 59% break-even, HOU the inverse. BOS is on a back-to-back.
For bettors: the BOS side carries the favorite-tax, the dog gets the points and a plus-money payout. The 9.0 total reads high-scoring vs the league average.
