Randy’s Pick
The Boston Red Sox didn't list a starting pitcher at the time this article was published, but it probably doesn't mean much. The Oakland Athletics are losing games at a record pace and are a team I've faded all year. It's the A's and the Royals that are burning holes in bettors pockets all year. I'll keep fading this team regardless of the matchup. Give me the Red Sox.
