Youkilis is out, Ortiz is doubtful, Scutaro is questionable. These are big offensive holes to fill for the Red Sox.
Red Sox's Andrew Miller will get lit up in first four innings and be yanked, he yielded 5 runs to the Royals at home a few days ago. He has a 7.50 ERA in his last four starts and pitches horrible at night (7.62 this year). Royals have a potent offense at home, and their pen pitches well there too.
I'm not calling this a lock, I'm just saying there's value. Regardless, the game will stay under the total of 10.
