Red Sox vs Orioles Picks and Prediction – 4/2/2025

Red Sox vs Orioles Prediction
This Wednesday, Garrett Crochet makes his first start as the Boston Red Sox look to bounce back against Zach Eflin and the Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards. Get our free MLB Picks all season long! Baltimore took the series opener 8-5 on Monday, capitalizing on Boston’s inconsistent pitching and timely hitting.
Crochet is an interesting case for the Red Sox, transitioning from a bullpen role into a starting spot. The lefty has electric stuff, but his ability to pitch deep into games remains a question. He’ll be tested early against a dangerous Orioles lineup featuring Adley Rutschman and Gunnar Henderson, both of whom have been off to strong starts this season. If Crochet struggles with command, Baltimore could put up runs in a hurry.
On the mound for the Orioles, Eflin brings stability and experience. He had a solid 2023 campaign with Tampa Bay and now looks to solidify his role in his first full year with Baltimore. Facing a Boston lineup that includes Rafael Devers and Jarren Duran, Eflin will need to work ahead in counts and keep the Red Sox from stringing together big innings. With Boston’s offense struggling early in the season, this could be a favorable matchup for him.
Both bullpens have had their share of early-season struggles, so this game could come down to which starter goes deeper. Boston’s relief corps has been shaky, while Baltimore has leaned on Felix Bautista and Yennier Cano to close out games. If the Orioles get another strong offensive showing, they’ll be in good shape.
Red Sox vs Orioles Pick Analysis
The Red Sox have struggled mightily to start off their 2025 campaign and while there’s no need to panic, they’ll play with some urgency on Wednesday. Expect the Red Sox to try and get a jump in this game early on. Take the Red Sox to take the win. Final Score Prediction, Boston Red Sox win 7-3.
