The Red Sox and Tigers split Games 1 and 2 of the series at Fenway. Everything is decided on Saturday. In game 1 Flaherty silenced the Red Sox offense, but in game 2 they unleashed all their offensive power against Maeda. Rafaela hit 2 HR, the Red Sox had 12 hits and Houck once again had another brilliant outing allowing 1 ER. Neither the Tigers nor the Red Sox can get away from playing 500 baseball, but this will hardly let them compete for the wild card in the long term. Reese Olson will be the starter for the Tigers and has the distinction of having an excellent ERA of 1.92 but a poor record of 1-5. Tigers won in their last outing on May 25. But before that Tigers were favorites on the betting sites in the previous two outings and lost. The usual thing is true for the Red Sox by losing game 1 of the series where they have a record of 6-13 but they have a good percentage in games 3 (11-6). In 2023 the Red Sox completely dominated the Tigers. Cooper Criswell, however, has not been very effective for the Red Sox, being perhaps the weakest of the current starting rotation.

Boston Red Sox - Detroit Tigers Key Points

  1. Red Sox have 4th best collective ERA
  2. Cooper Criswell averages a low 4.1 IP per game.
  3. Tigers ERA of 5.90 in last 10 games.
  4. Red Sox negative record at Fenway Park 12-16

Our Boston Red Sox vs Detroit Tigers Prediction

Cooper Criswell has yet to show a dominant side plus a 6+ IP game in 2024. Tigers increased their offensive production in May but their pitching suddenly plummeted. Reese Olson still maintains a 1.92 ERA but the Tigers' collective ERA in their last 10 games is 5.90. Caused by a rather disastrous replacement. This afternoon at Fenway could lead to a hitting party in Boston. 5 of the last 8 Red Sox games have surpassed the game total of 8.5 runs. Our prediction for Tigers vs Red Sox is: Over 8.5, -105 at FanDuel.
