Boston Red Sox vs. Baltimore Orioles Prediction
I’m leaning towards the Red Sox here. Giolito hasn’t been my favorite pitcher to back in the past, but there’s really no denying what he’s brought to the table for Boston so far this season and who knows what we’re going to see in Kyle Bradish’s return to the fold for the Orioles in his first start back. The Red Sox are not a great team to see on the other side right away with how hot their bats have been and I think Boston snags another win here. Give me the Red Sox.
