Rangers vs Red Sox
Old ace returns to Fenway looking to tip the scales

Rangers (17-18) VS Red Sox (18-18)
May 07, 2025 | 6:45 PM ET | Fenway Park, Boston, MA

Texas looks to keep a two game run going with a proven arm on the mound, one who’s historically pitched well at Fenway and knows Boston’s lineup inside and out. While the Red Sox have lost three in a row, they enter this one with a thinned bullpen and a lineup that has struggled in past matchups against this starter. The absence of a key left-handed bat further limits their offensive balance, and recent short outings from their starter could expose a shaky relief corps earlier than desired.
With Texas pushing to stay in the playoff picture and owning some favorable matchups in this park, the even-money price holds appeal. If the visitors can apply early pressure and manage the middle innings, they’re in a good spot to snap the skid.

Texas sends out a starter riding a dominant season to face a Boston team that has struggled to generate offense on the road, averaging just 2.5 runs per game in this road trip. While both lineups are dealing with missing pieces, the rotations have been consistent, and each bullpen enters the matchup in strong form. Boston's relief unit has quietly been one of the most effective in the league of late, and both starting arms have experience keeping things tight in this type of setting.
Given the current trends, injury updates, and pitcher-friendly dynamics in play, this shapes up as a matchup likely to stay under the posted total of nine. It’s not an explosive offensive environment, and both clubs have the arms to keep the game contained.

Texas arrives looking to steady the ship by keeping a two-game run going, while Boston is also searching for traction following back-to-back-to-back defeats. The visitors benefit from the return of a key bat, restoring balance to the lineup, and they’ll send out a starter with a strong track record at Fenway. Meanwhile, Boston enters with some lineup uncertainty and a late-game arm prone to inflated splits in high-leverage spots. With both teams hovering near the break-even mark and postseason positioning already taking shape, the run-line protection adds real value.
Even with a juiced price, the +1.5 offers a safer hedge in what’s likely to be another one-score finish in a hitter-friendly park.
