Detroit Tigers vs Boston Red Sox Prediction & Picks - MLB

 by Carlos Zabala | in MLB Picks

Tanner Houck continues to have a season to remember, once again showing dominance and durability in his last 3 outings. 18.2 where he only allowed 2 ER and struck out 19. However, these Houck outings have meant little to the Red Sox because they have rarely been able to turn them into wins. The right-hander's record is 4-5, having the 4th best ERA in the MLB. In Houck games, it has become a trend for the Red Sox to come out as favorites on betting sites. But they have only won in 2 of their last 5 outings. Despite the almost identical records between the Tigers and Red Sox, Boston has had an overwhelming recent dominance of the Tigers, winning them 9 of the last 10. Despite the good performances of some of their starters, the Tigers had a very high collective ERA of 4.60. However, the batting covered that deficiency in a timely manner. The 36-year-old veteran Maeda has seen a resurgence in his pitching, but as a visitor he has already had a few outings where he loses the game from the start. On the road, Maeda allowed 7 ER against Guardians, 5 against Rangers and 6 against White Sox. Despite the good performances, it is unlikely that Maeda will survive 5 innings against the Red Sox unscathed.

Our Detroit Tigers vs Boston Red Sox Prediction

It doesn't seem likely that Kenta Maeda will be able to contain the Red Sox offense on Friday at Fenway Park. It's not that the Red Sox are hitting especially hard, but that Maeda is not at all effective outside of Comerica Park. 11.32 is his ERA in 3 games when pitching away from home. Tanner Houck, on the other hand, is having a sweet moment, his quick way of pitching between pitches. How aggressive he is in attacking hitters and how good he is at inducing ground balls seems to indicate that he will have another good night at Fenway. The Red Sox bats were silenced by Flaherty yesterday, but against Maeda the story is probably different. Our prediction for Tigers vs Red Sox is: Red Sox ML, -158 at FanDuel.
