The Red Sox bats have woke up, as Boston is team batting averaged reached .285 heading into Thursday's action. Jon Lester has struggled on the mound with his control as he has walked 15 batters in 20 1/3rd's innings pitched this season. Lester only averages about 5 1/3rd innings per appearance this season and the Red Sox bullpen has not been good this season with a 5.57 ERA. The Rangers are in a rebuilding year and in last in the American League West. Jennings has gotten pounded this season sporting an ERA of 8.79 in three starts this season. Jennings last season with Houston had an ERA of 6.79 in 18 starts as teams hit .300 against him. Teams are batting .311 this season so far so the switch to the American League has not gone well for Jennings. Jennings is coming off major elbow surgery last season and is trying to find his form of years past. Both offenses are salivating at the thoughts of facing these two struggling pitchers. Play over 11 runs.
