NY Mets vs Baltimore Orioles Prediction
I’ll stay with the Orioles. We should have a fun starter matchup here, though. Eflin is 3-0 over his last three starts, notching just three earned runs across 19.1 innings of work combined during that time. As for Manaea, he’s got six earned over his last 17.0 innings, going 2-1 in that time.
On Tuesday the O’s got a scare with a bad outing from Burch Smith (0.1 innings; three earned) but everything turned out well thanks to a strong offensive effort. Baltimore bagged 11 team hits along the way, including two from three different players. I like the O’s to keep it rolling in the finale.
