Game Prediction
The game won’t be a shock for anyone due to the Athletics blatantly wanting to lose and move to Las Vegas. It will be an easy Red Sox victory and sweep as they win their fourth in a row. The Athletics being one of the worst times in baseball is not surprising so Boston and other teams will likely take advantage of them all season along with betters.
Final Pick
Boston Red Sox ML (-170)
