Red Sox vs. Orioles betting preview
Abreu has hit two home runs through Boston’s first five games, sporting a Major League-best 1.364 slugging percentage.
It’s a small sample size, but his barrel rate (27.3 percent) and sweet-spot rate (54.4) are off the charts.
Red Sox vs. Orioles pick
Abreu will step into the box against the Orioles’ Charlie Morton, who has been one of the most homer-prone pitchers of the last few years.

Since 2022, Morton is allowing 1.16 home runs per nine innings pitched, which is the 11th-most in baseball among pitchers with 500 innings on the mound over that period.

In his Orioles debut on Mar. 28 against the Blue Jays, Morton didn’t allow a homer, lasted just 3 1/3 innings, and allowed four earned runs and seven hits.
I’m backing Boston’s hottest hitter to capitalize on Morton’s struggles with the long ball.
The play: Wilyer Abreu to hit a home run (+520, BetMGM Sportsbook)
