Boston Red Sox vs Milwaukee Brewers Prediction
The Red Sox have been a bad team over the last couple of weeks, and I’m not excited to back them when I don’t know who the starting pitcher is. However, Civale is still working his way back, as he’s pitched just seven innings this season, and he’s allowed eight hits and seven runs in those frames. Struggles or not, the Red Sox are still a talented lineup, and this game could get ugly if Civale doesn’t get his act together quickly. Even without knowing who takes the mound for Boston, I’ll grab the even money as a fade of Civale.
