Braves at Orioles Picks and Predictions

Prediction

Orioles 6, Braves 4

Money line.

ORIOLES BET (+116).

Fried has won 3 straight starts and 4 of his last 5, but that streak ends Tuesday in Baltimore. The Orioles own lefties with a 13-5 record and over .800 OPS this season. They are also 22-12 at Camden Yards winning 4 of their last 6 games.

Atlanta was a preseason World Series favorite, but they have played below .500 baseball over their last 30 games. They just lost 3 games in a row to a much inferior national team. All the momentum is on the Orioles side heading into this series.

Running Line/Against the Spread

PASS.

I’m keeping my moneyline bet in this one.

Lean over 8 (-112).

I don’t like the trends towards this bet. I’m not going to make this a strong recommendation as the teams are 2-6 against the Over in their last 8 meetings.

Atlanta is 3-3 in the Over and the Orioles are 3-2-1 in their last 6 games.
