Baltimore Orioles vs Boston Red Sox Prediction
The Baltimore Orioles are going to get the benefit of the doubt because they’ve been the better team this season, and they’re at home. However, the Boston Red Sox have shown flashes here and there lately, and you can argue Cooper Criswell has been slightly better this season than Cole Irvin. Criswell has also shined on the road this season with an ERA under 2. Early start for two teams that are Traveling after Sunday’s Games. I still like the value of the Red Sox and the plus money.
