Orioles vs Red Sox Predictions & Picks

• My Pick: Red Sox Moneyline (-155 at Caesars)

Tonight’s contest features one of the most lopsided pitching disparities on the MLB slate. Payton Tolle boasts a 2.61 ERA and a microscopic 0.90 WHIP over 41.1 innings. More importantly, he is fanning batters at a rate of 10.02 strikeouts per nine innings. He’s not allowed more than three earned runs in any of his seven starts on the campaign.

Chris Bassitt enters with a bloated 5.44 ERA and a 1.70 WHIP across 53.1 innings. Opponents are hitting .310 against the veteran Bassitt, and in his previous outing against Boston, was rocked for eight earned runs in two innings of work last season. With the disparity in starters, I’m backing Boston in this one.

Payton Tolle vs Chris Bassitt

The MLB probable pitchers show that Tolle has been virtually untouchable, holding batters to an abysmal .176 average. His 2.67 FIP indicates his production is entirely sustainable. Bassitt continues to allow heavy traffic on the basepaths, generating just 5.44 strikeouts per nine innings.

Top Orioles vs Red Sox Player Prop Pick

• My Prop Pick: Payton Tolle Over 5.5 Strikeouts (-149 at Caesars)

My favorite selection in the MLB player props is riding with the pitcher I’m confident in with Payton Tolle. His elite swing-and-miss stuff makes his strikeout prop highly attractive. He’s racked up at least seven K’s in four of seven games this season, with a high water mark of eleven.
