I had Boston on the moneyline three days ago against San Francisco, and it cashed, a 6-4 win that fits a stretch where the Red Sox have taken five of their last seven. The bats have carried that stretch, a .943 team OPS over the last week compared to a .731 mark for the season, and Boston rides a three-game win streak into Miami. Ranger Suarez starts for the Red Sox off a win over Arizona in which he lasted five and a third innings and allowed four runs, a short outing the offense covered for. Miami counters with Sandy Alcantara, who has actually pitched well and lost twice in a row, including seven innings of one-run ball at Cincinnati that still ended in a loss. The Marlins have been worse at home than on the road this season on the mound, a meaningful gap for a team hosting a lineup that is red hot right now. Boston is the shorter price here, and the recent form backs it up. Take the Red Sox on the moneyline tonight.
