Before making any Red Sox vs. Orioles picks, you NEED to check out the MLB predictions from the SportsLine Projection Model.
The SportsLine Projection Model simulates every MLB game 10,000 times, and it is a 300-260 on top-rated MLB money-line picks since the start of the 2021 season. This is the same model that pegged the 2021 Atlanta Braves at 10-1 as one of three best bets to win it all last season. Anybody who has followed it has seen profitable returns.
The model knows Boston is expected to send right-hander Nick Pivetta (9-9, 4.28 ERA) to the mound. Pivetta was dominant in his last start, tossing a one-hitter with three walks and six strikeouts in seven innings of a 5-3 win at Pittsburgh on Tuesday. It was his first win since June 24. He has pitched well in each of his last five starts, allowing four runs or fewer in each one. This will be his second start against the Orioles this season. He took the loss in their May 1 meeting, all owing three earned runs in 4 1/3 innings, walking zero and striking out five. ' ' '
