Boston looks indestructible so far. But should they really be favored after a double header travel day? With Arroyo on the mound? I don't think so.
Texas had to travel too but it was after a single game and only a short hop from KC. Texas got a chance to sleep in their own beds while Boston had to play 2 while traveling half way accross the country. Drese and Arroyo are equally unimpressive typical major league pitchers. But Texas is happy and hungry and playing great ball. I certainly give them an edge today even if the line doesn't.
Typical too much/too little respect play here that we see all the time in baseball.
