Available at FanDuel. I've got the Red Sox at 60.6% to win, up from 54.6% implied. This is largely due to the struggles of Cristian Javier. Javier had been struggling for the entire summer, and I thought it may have been because he had really cut back on his curve usage. But last time out -- against Boston -- he went back to the curve, and it didn't help matters much. He still had just three walks to three strikeouts, and he let up three earned across five innings. For the season, Javier has a 4.93 SIERA and 4.73 expected ERA. The Astros also got to Chris Sale a bit last week, so it's not like that side of things is secure, but I do think Boston should be a bit more heavily favored here.
