Books just keeps giving us just great odds to bet against the Boston Red Sox at this entire season I have been waiting for this team to wake up but at some point it's just not gonna happen. Boston does have one of their stronger starting pitchers this season in Eduardo Rodriguez starting this game Monday.
Eduardo is 13-5 this season with a 4.17 ERA with 140 strike outs and just 53 walks. This year has been a coming out party really for Rodriguez who has struggled in prior years for Boston. Last start for Eduardo he went 5 innings giving up 2 runs and 7 hits and he has kept the Red Sox in almost all games he has pitched this season.

Boston though comes in off two straight losses to the Angels a team that was struggling to win its self and now plays a hungry Indians team on national T.V. ESPN. Indians have won 8 of their last 10 games and are 38-24 on the year this season at Progressive Field.
Boston comes in at 32-26 on the road this year and actually have been better to bet on the road then at home but even on the road you would be losing money with this team. Cleveland has been in it despite trading away a top pitcher and losing two other to injury this year. Indians send Zach Plesac to the mound on Monday.

Zach Plesac is 6-3 with a 3.13 ERA but has only struck out 54 while walking 27 so he is no strike out pitcher. Indian are rolling along nicely and the Red Sox just seem to be snake bitten this year. It is hard not to take a small home dog here as fading the Red Sox is gold as the Indians win this game 4-2.
