Grayson Rodriguez looks like one of the more talented young arms in the league. He's looked very nice so far this season having pitched 6+ innings in each of his two appearances. He will face what I consider one of the weaker lineups in the Red Sox who are missing two of their better hitters in Trevor Story and Vaughn Grissom. Look for G-Rod to get in at least six innings. Credit to my colleague A-Mags for bringing this play to my attention.
Grayson Rodriguez over 16.5 outs and it's not against a premier offense? Yes, please! Last time out, Rodriguez pitched into the 7th inning, throwing 97 pitches on his way to his second quality start in as many tries. He finished last season going over this line in 10 of 12 starts and he's already two for two this year, so let's jump in while this is at 16.5!
Boston has some serious defensive issues, again, and losing Trevor Story at short is a big problem. The Orioles issues has been against lefties this season and a lot of Garrett Whitlock's early success was against some crap lineups. Fenway is a great park for O's hitters and they are loaded with LH and SH bats.
