Baltimore Orioles vs New York Yankees Prediction
As I said yesterday, the Yankees are rolling, and they have a long history of smoking the Orioles. I’m not stepping in front of the Yankees. Bradish has also been hittable this season with a 4.20 ERA and 1.73 WHIP, and he’s walked 17 batters in 30 innings. Not what you want to see when going up against this Yankees lineup. Weathers is much more manageable with his 1.22 WHIP and 40 strikeouts in 33.2 innings. Give me the Yankees yet again in this series.
