Rays vs Red Sox MLB Player Prop Picks (Jul 11)

The Tampa Bay Rays visit the surging Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park for the second game of their four-game set. Drew Rasmussen (7–5, 2.82 ERA) toes the rubber for Tampa, while Hunter Dobbins (4–1, 4.10 ERA) takes the mound for Boston. The Red Sox enter on a seven-game win streak, while the Rays aim to stay competitive in the AL East.

• The Red Sox are riding a seven-game winning streak and have taken both previous series against Tampa this season.
• Rasmussen offers control and ground-ball tendencies, while Dobbins, though solid, has mixed results at Fenway.
• Rays favored slightly on the run line (-1.5), while Red Sox hold narrow moneyline edge. Over/Under sits at 9 runs.

Tampa Bay Rays Player Prop Pick: Jonathan Aranda

Aranda is one of Tampa’s most consistent hitters, currently riding a six-game hit streak and batting .326 this season. Given Dobbins’ moderate strikeout rate and Fenway’s hitter-friendly setup, Aranda has strong upside to extend his streak with at least one base hit tonight.

• Hit in six straight games.
• Excellent road splits and contact consistency.
• Advantageous matchup vs. Dobbins’ contact-prone repertoire.

Boston Red Sox Player Prop Pick: Ceddanne Rafaela

Rafaela has been a catalyst in Boston’s offense of late. In the opener he logged a two-run single, and he’s been one of the few reliable run producers for the surging Sox. With Dobbins limiting damage and Boston leaning on its offense, Rafaela stands a strong chance to cross the plate once again.

• Multi-RBI game (two-run single) in the series opener.
• Hot streak aligned with Boston’s dominant recent form.
• Tampa’s inconsistent run prevention makes the roof more favorable.
