Friday's 4* MLB POD - Red Sox vs. Orioles

[Pick Bot]

Red Sox -122 4* MLB POD
I really like the value we are getting with the Sox here at home where they have been tearing the cover off the ball. They will also face Ubaldo JImenez here who they have domintated over the last few years posting a .974 OPS in 120 AB. Jimenez is coming off a great start and it's been difficult for him to post back to back quality starts this early in the season. In fact he's had a 6.09 ERA during the month of April over the last 3 years.

Joe Kelly will counter here and I really like his raw stats and history against the Orioles posting a 3.44 ERA in 2 starts in his career against the O's. Kelly has posted a .502 OPS and his only downfall has been his control. I think he's ready to take his game to the next level this year and if not his bullpen has a 2 run advantage to start the year compared to his opponent.
