Rays vs. Orioles Pick

Money Line Pick for Rays vs. Orioles

  • Baltimore Orioles ML (4 Units)

The Orioles have won four of their last seven home games, while the Rays have lost four of their last six road games. Baltimore has the edge here because they’ve hit the ball well against right-handers, and they’re going up against Pepiot, who struggled in recent road starts, giving up eight runs in his last three road starts. He gave up 10 runs in three starts against the Orioles this season and will have a hard time slowing them down.

Tampa Bay won’t be as successful offensively because they didn’t hit the ball well in recent road games, and they’re going up against Kremer, who gave up more than one run once in his last three home starts. He has also dominated the Rays, going 4-0 in his last six starts against them, giving up three total runs. He gave up one run in his last four home starts against the Rays and will keep their offense in check. Take Baltimore on the money line.

Over/Under Pick for Rays vs. Orioles

  • Under  (4 Units)

The Orioles played under the total in their last five games. Baltimore averages 4.21 runs per game and averaged two runs per game in their last three games. They’re batting .239 against right-handers, and they’re facing a starter who gave up four runs in his last three starts. The Rays average 4.46 runs per game and averaged 5.67 runs per game in their last three games. They’re batting .259 against right-handers, and they’re facing a starter who gave up three runs in his last six starts against them. Don't expect these teams to score enough runs to push the score over the total. The Orioles and Rays played under the total in three of their last four meetings.
