Notes On The Boston Red Sox

The Boston Red Sox dropped three games to the New York Yankees. The Red Sox had 88 wins and 68 losses, but they got swept by the Yankees in a home series. The Red Sox still have a chance to make it into the playoffs because they are one game ahead of the Toronto Blue Jays.

The Boston Red Sox have been playing well. They have had the second-best OPS and they have scored a lot of runs. The Red Sox are doing well on the mound, even though they sometimes let their opponents hit for a high average and get more hits than expected.

Chris Sale will pitch on Tuesday. He has a 2.57 ERA in seven starts this season and is 5-0. He was gone for a while and came back, and the team has been winning ever since he came back.

Sale has won twice against the O’s so far this term. He’s given up three earned runs on eight hits in ten innings of work and he punched out nine.

Notes On The Baltimore Orioles

The Baltimore Orioles are now 50-106 this season. They split a four game series with the Rangers. The Orioles are still the worst team in the American League.

Over the past two weeks, the Orioles have gone 4-9, scoring just 40 runs while hitting a dismal .224/.296/.357. On the pitching side, they’ve posted a 4.71 ERA, 1.41 WHIP, and a .272 batting average against.

Bruce Zimmermann will pitch against the Red Sox again. He is 1-0 so far this season, which means he won one game and lost no games.

The 26-year-old man has been injured since June 13. He is 4-4 with a 4.83 ERA and 1.47 WHIP in 11 starts and one relief appearance this year (59.2 innings pitched).

Boston Red Sox vs. Baltimore Orioles Picks, Predictions, Odds & Lines

Pick & Prediction:Boston Red Sox -1.5    

The Red Sox have won six straight games over the Orioles, closing a 1.5-run spread in all six events. I’m going to stick with this betting trend and pick the Red Sox to cover as my top betting choice for this AL East battle.

Sale’s numbers against the Orioles are 10-2 with a 2.58 ERA in 16 starts and six relief appearances. He’s had a sparkling 1.96 ERA through 64.1 innings of work at Camden Yards throughout his career. Sale should continue to dominate Baltimore, while the Red Sox’ offense will look to keep rolling at the plate.

 

Because the totals appear to be a hard wager, I would stay with visitors. The Boston Red Sox may easily score a number of runs against the Baltimore Orioles’ ineffective pitching staff, but Chris Sale will present a difficult challenge for the home team.

Although the under has hit in five of the last eight meetings between these two teams, I’m going with the over. Over the past two weeks, Baltimore’s bullpen had a 6.61 ERA while Boston’s ‘ pen had a 3.00 ERA and 4.32 FIP during that span.
