MLB Betting Picks for Tuesday 7/20 - Moneylines, Totals, and Runlines
Tonight we have 13 games on a night slate, with two-afternoon games as well. While there are times it can be tempting to place a lot of bets, I try to limit my action to no more than four to five wagers in a day, sometimes more like two or three. If you have read […]

Alex Verdugo Walks Three Times, Scores Twice
Boston Red Sox outfielder Alex Verdugo was dropped from second to sixth in the lineup Monday, but he performed well from the new spot, walking three times and scoring twice in five plate appearances. The new arrangement will certainly ding Verdugo's fantasy value, at least in the runs category, but he should be better positioned […]

Nick Pivetta Gets Eighth Win Against Toronto
Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Nick Pivetta earned his eighth win of the season Sunday in a 13-4 shellacking of the Toronto Blue Jays. Pivetta pitched better than he needed to, allowing four runs on 11 hits and two walks in 6 2/3 innings while striking out four. The 11 hits allowed were a season […]

Danny Santana Homers In Return From IL
Boston Red Sox utility man Danny Santana batted eighth and played first base in his return from the injured list Monday, and he delivered a solo home run off Toronto Blue Jays relief pitcher Trevor Richards. It was his fourth long ball of the season. Santana seems primed to start semi-regularly at first base against […]

Hunter Renfroe Delivers First-Inning Grand Slam
Boston Red Sox outfielder Hunter Renfroe gave the Red Sox a commanding lead over the Toronto Blue Jays Monday when he hammered a first-inning grand slam off starting pitcher Ross Stripling. It was Renfroe's 14th home run of the season. There was potential for an even bigger night for Renfroe, as he struck out twice […]

J.D. Martinez Goes 4-for-4 Monday
Boston Red Sox designated hitter J.D. Martinez went 4-for-4 with two doubles, a walk, an RBI, and two runs scored against the Toronto Blue Jays Monday. It was a massacre right from the start, and Martinez found himself in the middle of the action after being dropped to fifth in the lineup. The change was […]

Rafael Devers Hits 23rd Homer
Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers hit his 23rd home run of the season Monday, a solo shot off Toronto Blue Jays relief pitcher Anthony Kay. Devers also walked and score two runs in four at-bats. He's now slashing .279/.353/.563 with three steals, 62 runs, and 73 RBI. He'll look to continue the beat-down […]

Jarren Duran Hits First Major-League Homer
Boston Red Sox outfielder Jarren Duran was moved up to the second spot in the lineup Monday, and he immediately delivered, driving a two-run home run in his first at-bat. It was his first major league homer, and his only hit in six at-bats against the Toronto Blue Jays. Duran already offered a tantalizing combination […]

Kike Hernandez Homers Twice Monday
Boston Red Sox utility man Kike Hernandez had his best game of the season Monday, going 3-for-5 with two home runs, a double, a walk, three runs scored, and three RBI. Hernandez has been showing off his power stroke over his last 15 games, slashing .232/.377/.571 with five homers in that span. He offers plenty […]

Alex Verdugo Dropped To Sixth In Batting Order
Boston Red Sox outfielder Alex Verdugo has been dropped to sixth in the batting order on Monday night against Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Ross Stripling. Verdugo is hitting just .218/.315/.269 with no home runs, four RBI and 16 strikeouts in 89 plate appearances over the last 28 days, so perhaps the move down the order […]

Boston Red Sox catcher Christian Vazquez (knee) is not expected to play in Monday's matchup against the Toronto Blue Jays. He was struck in the knee by a foul tip during Sunday's game.

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers had three walks Sunday, the first time this season he's collected as many free passes in a game. Devers has posted a career-high 8.5 percent walk rate in his 376 plate appearances this year, and that improved batting eye may be contributing to his outstanding year. With his […]

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Martin Perez took his fifth loss of the season against the New York Yankees Sunday night, allowing three runs on five hits and a walk in four innings. He struck out five batters. Perez has a decent 4.16 ERA on the season, but he hasn't completed six innings since June […]

Boston Red Sox outfielder Danny Santana (quad) is expected to be activated off the 10-day injured list on Monday. The 30-year-old utility player has not done much with the bat over the course of the 2021 campaign. He's hitting .167/.231/.292 with three homers, 10 RBI and a 25/7 K/BB ratio. He'll be a nice depth […]

Christian Arroyo To Make First Career Start At First Base
Boston Red Sox utility man Christian Arroyo draws the start at first base Sunday night, sending incumbent Bobby Dalbec to the bench. It's his first career start at first base. This is notable, as it indicates that Christian Arroyo may hold on to an everyday role in the starting lineup even after Jarren Duran's call-up, […]

Bobby Dalbec Sitting Sunday
Boston Red Sox first baseman Bobby Dalbec is out of the lineup against the New York Yankees Sunday night. This could become a common occurrence against right-handed starters, as Jarren Duran's call-up means Kike Hernandez will move to second base on those occasions, shifting Christian Arroyo to first base.
