Red Sox vs. Orioles predictions and choices
Prediction
Baltimore 6, Boston 5
Moneyline
Due to their minor overestimation based on their 2022 surface numbers, both starting pitchers in this level series from the previous two years are fade-worthy. If you want the most leverage, PASS and look at the Over.
against the spread/run line
The Red Sox are a theoretical favorite here, but it's difficult to ignore the 30-cent line. PASS.
