Minnesota Twins vs Boston Red Sox Game 1 Betting Preview
On Sunday, the Boston Red Sox and Minnesota Twins will play two, as they make up for yesterday's postponed game with a doubleheader from Fenway Park. This first game will be an interesting one, as both teams need to set the tone for the day with a win and avoid risking a sweep later in the day.
On the mound, Boston will rely on Nick Pivetta, who is ranked as the 82nd best starting pitcher according to the advanced-stat Power Rankings. Despite his 5-11 record, Pivetta's 3.43 xFIP suggests he's been a bit unlucky, indicating potential for a stronger outing. He projects to strike out 6.6 batters today, which should pair well with Boston's 8th ranked offense, known for its power and ability to drive in runs. Trevor Story, Boston's standout player over the last week, brings a solid 0.868 OPS to the plate.
The Twins counter with Pablo Lopez, an elite right-hander who ranks 14th among starting pitchers. Lopez's 3.32 xFIP shows he is likely to outperform his already impressive 3.84 ERA. With the Twins' offense ranked 11th in MLB, they have been capable of backing up Lopez's performances, especially with Carlos Correa in excellent form, boasting a .375 batting average over the last week.
