MLB Free Premium Play 04/01: Boston Red Sox @ New York Yankees

Boston  at New York Yankees

MLB - 915 Boston Red Sox @ 916 New York Yankees (Starting Pitchers: J. Lester vs C. Sabathia) The Red Sox have in my opinion a good chance to make some noise in the AL East this season, but for that they will need monster seasons from Jon Lester and Clay Buchholz. And the truth is that these two pitchers showed some great stuff in Spring Training. Lester was very inconsistent last season, but he seems to be very focused right now, as he was fantastic in the preseason with a .101 BA and 0.50 WHIP allowed, while having a ridiculous 20/4 K/BB ratio. He will face a shorthanded Yankees's roster, who is struggling to find healthy batters let alone competitive ones. The Yankees will use Sabathia today as their SP and unlike Lester, Sabathia is still dealing with some elbow issues and he played just 10 innings during the Spring Training and without good results. Despite facing a ridiculous Red Sox last season, CC still struggled against Boston in two starts with a 5.14 ERA and the Red Sox seem to be better and especially more focused at the start of this season. Therefore, I believe Boston is the favorite to win today's contest and so, I'll be taking them in here. Pick: 3 units (Single Dime Play) on 915 Boston Red Sox ML (w/ J. Lester) @ -102 / 1.98 on Bovada
