The Red Sox were seeing 60% of the betting action in their game against Toronto. Boston was a -137 favorite at some books.  Others opened at -110 and moved to -121.

The books appear to be moving the line in conjunction with the action, though not exactly enough to discourage one from wagering on the Red Sox, who are 9-2 in the last 11 meetings in Toronto.

Price lost his third consecutive start at Texas on May 3 when he was shelled for nine runs (seven earned) and six hits over 3 2/3 innings but he has dominated the Blue Jays during his career, going 17-3 with a 2.40 ERA.

Following a string of shaky starts, Estrada turned in his best performance of the season last time out at Tampa Bay, settling for a no-decision despite tossing six scoreless innings.   He is 0-1 with a 4.12 ERA in four starts versus Boston in 2017.

Zach Eflin Player Prop Bets

Zach Eflin has great value in fantasy leagues for the April 26 game against the lowly Chicago White Sox.  Betting on Eflin and the Tampa Bay Rays might make sense if not for the -210 price tag.

Trevor Williams Player Prop Bets

The Nats Trevor Williams held the Astros to one run with four strikeouts across six innings in a no-decision on Saturday.  And the betting public was eating him up at a near 80% clip. 

Tanner Bibee Player Prop Bets: Hits Allowed

Bibee was promoted to the major leagues at the start of last season and made a lot of noise in doing so.  In his debut versus the Colorado Rockies, Bibee became the first Cleveland pitcher ever to record at least five consecutive strikeouts in a Major League debut.
