Baltimore Orioles vs Boston Red Sox Prediction & Picks - MLB

The Red Sox's 2026 season is inexcusable; fans are understandably growing impatient with their 9-17 record, which has already left them far behind in the AL East.

They've lost their last four games; after being swept by their archrivals, the Yankees, they were then routed by the Orioles at Camden Yards. Despite some criticism and speculation about Cora's future, the Red Sox, with Crochet on the mound, are expected to win Game 2 against Baltimore early this afternoon.

In the series at Fenway against the Yankees, the offense offered little to nothing; they mostly grounded out and struck out batters. In Game 3, they were leading 2-1 entering the seventh inning, after Tolle had the game won by striking out 11 batters. Cora decided to relieve him with the duo of Columbe and Weissert, a misguided strategy that cost them the game. The following day, Bello had another start that imploded in the early innings: Henderson, Rutschman, and Beavers all homered in the first inning; from then on, Boston trailed, ultimately losing 10-3 at Camden Yards.
