Rockies vs Red Sox Preview, Picks
In Major League Baseball, road underdogs playing interleague (non-conference) games have historically been undervalued by oddsmakers, which appears to be the case for the Rockies tonight.
Since 2016, despite winning only 43.3% of these games, these teams have generated a consistent positive ROI of 4.6%.
This trend has proven reliable across five consecutive seasons, indicating market inefficiencies in how these specific matchups are priced — likely due to lack of familiarity between leagues and public overconfidence in home favorites.
In interleague play, road underdogs have shown themselves to be profitable on the moneyline recently.
They have only a 43.3% win percentage, but those teams have turned a 4.6% ROI for bettors since 2016 and have been profitable in five consecutive seasons.
So, we'll be looking to fade the Red Sox in this spot.
