Baltimore Orioles vs NY Yankees prediction

This is a fun series between two AL East contenders, and I understand making the case for the Baltimore Orioles at home. However, I have to side with the NY Yankees because of Nestor Cortes’ dominance over the Orioles in his career. Again, Cortes has a 4-0 record against the Orioles with an ERA just under 2, and he’s holding current O’s to a .180 batting average in 100 at bats. Dean Kremer has also had issues keeping the ball in the park so far this season. Cheap price. I’m going to side with the Yankees on the road.
