The Baltimore Orioles can breathe a big sigh of relief because the Boston Red Sox have traded superstar outfielder Mookie Betts and starting pitcher David Price to the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Sox get outfielder Alex Verdugo back along with, pitching prospect Brusdar Graterol from the Minnesota Twins, who received pitcher Kenta Maeda from the Dodgers.
Whether the Orioles aim to win or not, this is welcomed news to the team and fans. Facing the Red Sox maybe won’t be so painful anymore. Betts has completely mashed Orioles pitchers, both at Fenway Park and Camden Yards over the course of his career.
