Red Sox vs Royals Pickswise Expert Predictions
After the Royals won the first game of this series on Friday, the Red Sox were able to end Kansas City’s 7-game win streak with a 10-1 win on Saturday. Despite the loss, the Royals are still firing on all cylinders right now. Since April 20, they have won 16 of 19 games, and enter this contest as perhaps the hottest team in baseball. The Royals are in a strong position to get back in the win column in this one, as they will be going up against Boston’s Lucas Giolito, who has struggled so far this season.
Giolito will be making just his third start of the season after beginning 2025 on the IL with a hamstring injury. His first 2 starts have not gone well, as he’s allowed 15 hits and 9 earned runs in 9.2 innings of work. The Royals are hot at the plate, and Seth Lugo has allowed just 3 earned runs over his last 3 outings. On the season, Lugo owns a strong 2.84 ERA and 1.11 WHIP. Look for Kansas City’s offense to do some damage while Lugo holds things down on the mound.
