New York Yankees at Boston Red Sox Preview & Picks

Boston are tipped to win as a home underdog in this series opener.

Brayan Bello has set the Red Sox on their way to a bunch of wins this season and they have had New York's number so far in 2024.

  • Boston Red Sox are 4-2 in the 6 meetings so far this season
  • Boston pitcher Brayan Bello is 10-5 as a starter this season
  • New York start Nestor Cortes Jr is 1-8 in road appearances in 2024
  • The Over has cashed in 3 of the last 5 meetings

Head To Head

  • Boston Red Sox lead the regular season series 4-2
  • Boston Red Sox won 3-0 when the two teams last met on July 7

New York Yankees Form

New York enter this series having just been swept by the New York Mets and having lost four of their six games since the All-Star break.

The Yankees went into the mid-season pause on the back of a good showing in Baltimore that saw them beat the Orioles 4-1 and 6-1, before losing the final meeting 6-5.

They made a successful return to action last Friday as they won 6-1 at home to Tampa Bay, but they have been unable to build on that.

New York dropped the next two meetings with the Rays, 9-1 and 6-4, before claiming a split of the series with a 9-1 victory.

The Yankees then hosted the Mets for the final Subway Series of the regular season, suffering 3-2 and 12-3 defeats.

Boston Red Sox Form

Boston come into this series with New York having struggled since the regular season restarted, losing five of their first six games back.

The Red Sox went into the All-Star break in solid form, having won 10 of their final 13 games before the break.

However, they failed to maintain that form when the season resumed last week, losing their first four games back.

Boston travelled to Los Angeles for a three-game series with the Dodgers and were swept thanks to 4-1, 7-6 and 9-6 defeats.

The Red Sox then lost 9-8 in Colorado before finally ending their losing run with a 6-0 victory, but their joy was short-lived as they dropped the final meeting 20-7.

Verdict

Brayan Bello's ERA may not be the best, but he has been involved in a bunch of Boston wins.

Nester Cortes Jr, on the other hand, cannot seem to buy a win on the road, so give us the underdog Red Sox.
