Baltimore Orioles (61-64) will open their three-game series against New York Yankees (69-55) on Tuesday night at Oriole Park. The Orioles showed up big in their last series against Tampa Bay Rays, winning 3-1 on the road. This commanding win puts them firmly in the wild-card race in the American League. Of course, that also makes their series against the Yankees pivotal. The O’s are the -110 betting underdogs tonight.

New York Yankees, on the other hand, are the slight -120 betting favorites. They remain a formidable force in the American League even with several key players on the injury list. However, their recent form has been concerning, with a 5-5 record in the last 10 matches. The Yankees are coming off a 2-1 series defeat against the Blue Jays on the road, scoring only six runs while giving up 10. Still, they have a pretty solid lead in the wild-card playoff spots.

Baltimore Orioles vs New York Yankees Picks

Baltimore Orioles - New York Yankees Key Points

  1. The Orioles are 4-1 ATS in their last five matches all-time.
  2. The Orioles covered the +1.5 spread in their last six matches all-time.
  3. The Yankees lost against the +1.5 spread in their last four matches.
  4. The Yankees lost against the +1.5 spread in their last five matches.

Our Baltimore Orioles vs New York Yankees Prediction

We expect a tight contest tonight, just as the moneyline odds suggest. The Orioles will probably cover the +1.5 spread due to their home advantage and current form. They’ve gone 3-1 in their last four matches while winning five of their last 10 matches. However, the Yankees have a stronger overall staff, and the return of Carlos Rodon (4-2, 3.30 ERA) couldn’t have come at a better time. They could cause problems for Baltimore’s Shane Baz, who is 4-12 this season with a 4.00 ERA. But we’re more concerned about Rodon’s lack of starting action in the last two months. We see the hosts keeping the score line close and possibly winning this contest.

Our prediction for Baltimore Orioles vs New York Yankees: Baltimore Orioles on the +1.5 line.

Prediction:

 

Baltimore Orioles on the +1.5 line.
