Boston Red Sox DFS Spin
Red Sox right fielder Wilyer Abreu had 20% of his team’s hits in their 5-0 loss to the Braves on Saturday afternoon. In that game, the 25-year-old left-handed hitter went 1 for 4 with a single. For the season, Abreu is hitting .253 with 13 homers, 29 RBIs, 4 steals, and an OPS of .830 in 194 at-bats. Wilyer Abreu is batting .295 with an OPS of .954 in road games this season. That makes him an intriguing DFS option for Sunday’s game at Truist Park.
Atlanta Braves DFS Spin
Braves right fielder Ronald Acuna Jr. reached base 3 times in his club’s 5-0 win over the Red Sox on Saturday. Hitting out of the leadoff spot in the lineup, the 2023 NL MVP went 2 for 3 with a homer, 2 RBIs, a walk, and 2 runs scored. Acuna is hitting .367 with 3 homers, 6 RBIs, and an OPS of 1.174 in 30 at-bats this year. The 27-year-old right-handed hitter is batting .400 with an OPS of 1.355 in home games this season. That fact makes Ronald Acuna Jr. worth a look in DFS on Sunday.

Red Sox vs. Braves Betting Prediction
I like the Red Sox in this contest because they’ll be sending their ace, Garrett Crochet, to the hill to start the game. The 6’6” 245-pound left-hander was an All-Star with the Chicago White Sox last year, and he’s been good again with Boston this year. In 12 starts in 2025, Garrett Crochet is 4-4 with a 2.04 ERA, a 1.07 WHIP, a 3.7 strikeout-to-walk ratio, a 10.7 K/9, and a .204 opponent batting average.
Since Crochet is a lefty, he will have the platoon advantage over Atlanta left-handed hitters like Matt Olson, Drake Baldwin, Alex Verdugo, and Michael Harris. The 25-year-old southpaw has thrown 7 quality starts this year, and I like Garrett Crochet’s chances to throw another one in a Red Sox win on Sunday. The pick is Boston -135 on the money line over Atlanta at Bovada.lv.
