Orioles vs Red Sox Prediction
I’m backing the Red Sox here. I just have a lot more faith in Brayan Bello to have a solid start here than I trust the Orioles to back up Dietrich Enns. Furthermore, I don’t love Boston’s form against a lefty in the last couple of weeks, but Boston’s just in far better form and I think they get it done. Give me Boston here.
