The read
Jake Bennett is the separator. He enters off six scoreless innings against the Yankees with seven strikeouts and no walks, complementing a 3.27 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 3.02 road ERA. Baltimore has six right-handed hitters against the lefty, but Bennett has still limited righties to a .247 average and .656 OPS.
Boston also brings the hotter confirmed lineup: 43-for-151 (.285) over the last seven days, compared with Baltimore’s 36-for-175 (.206). The decisive situational edge is relief availability. Aroldis Chapman, Garrett Whitlock and Erik Miller are rested, while Baltimore used six relievers yesterday and Josh Walker has pitched three of the last four days.
Boston’s bullpen allowing 28 earned runs in 27.0 innings over the last five days keeps this at modest confidence. Brandon Young is coming off seven innings of one-run ball, and Coby Mayo and Christian Encarnacion-Strand own 1.144 and 1.069 OPS marks against lefties. Still, Bennett’s form and Boston’s better-positioned late-inning arms are enough for me to lay -122.

Props on this game
3Jake BennettOVER 16.5 Pitcher Outs Pitcher Outs-112
Not yet graded
Bennett has cleared this number in six of his last eight starts and averages 17.6 outs per start. He just handled the Yankees for six scoreless innings on only 83 pitches, and his 18 walks across 93.2 innings give him a strong chance to keep the pitch count under control. Baltimore's right-heavy lineup is the concern, but Bennett has held righties to a .656 OPS. I need only one out in the sixth from a starter Boston should ask to provide length.
Brandon YoungOVER 1.5 Pitcher Walks Pitcher Walks-128
Not yet graded
Young has issued at least two walks in five of his last eight starts and averages 2.0 per outing. Boston's first five hitters all carry on-base percentages of .318 or better, with Roman Anthony, Mickey Gasper and Nick Sogard each above .360. That patience should give Young enough extended counts to issue the two walks this ticket needs.
Mickey GasperOVER 0.5 Home Runs Home Runs+585
Not yet graded
Gasper has homered in six of his last 15 games, including a two-homer performance, and owns a .980 OPS with all seven of his season homers against right-handed pitching. Brandon Young has allowed 17 homers in 23 starts, with eight of the 13 scoring plays against him across his recent outings coming via the long ball. Batting second should give Gasper four opportunities, and +585 is enough return for his current power surge.
