Schule's MLB BEAST of the AL EAST - BAL@BOS
(MLB) Baltimore vs. Boston, 04/11/2016 10:05 AM, Score: 9 - 7
Point Spread: 1.50 | -125.00 Baltimore (Away)
Result: Win
This is an 8* play on Baltimore +1.5.

The Red Sox are a huge favorite at home to the undefeated Orioles today, and I just don't think the "Price" is realistic. The Orioles send a capable pitcher to the mound opposite David Price, and they have a heavy hitting lineup that is in the zone right now.

Price was not exceptional in his Opening Day start in Cleveland, and he has a history of starting slow. He's just 5-5 with a 4.74 ERA in the month of April since 2013. He hasn't had a lot of success silencing the Orioles in his career, as Baltimore's lineup is batting a solid .280 over a combined 236 at bats against him.

The Orioles hand the ball to Yovani Gallardo, who was sharp in his season debut. Gallardo gave up just one run on a pair of hits over five innings in a 4-2 win over the Twins. The veteran is 2-1 with a 2.55 ERA in three starts against the Red Sox over the last three seasons.

The Orioles are 10-1 in their last 11 overall, and I just can't pass up on a hot team getting such a big price.

Take BAL.
