Our Baltimore Orioles vs Detroit Tigers Prediction
Best Pick: Take your chance with the Orioles to cover -1.5 runs.
The Tigers may have dominated the recent head-to-heads with Baltimore, but they are in a rough spot right now on both sides of the ball. Detroit has averaged only 1.8 runs per game on a .181 BA and pitched a 4.11 ERA over the last five games.
The Orioles have posted an ugly 8.28 ERA over the last five games, but at least they have managed to put up 4.0 runs per game in this stretch. Moreover, facing a struggling Detroit batting lineup presents starter Chris Bassitt an opportunity to register strong numbers on the mound and regain his confidence after two subpar starts.
Our betting prediction for the Detroit Tigers vs. the Baltimore Orioles: The Orioles -1.5 runs
