Baltimore Orioles’ 2019 recap

Despite an abysmal 2019 for the Baltimore Orioles, going 54-108 and finishing last in the AL East, it was a seven-win improvement in Brandon Hyde’s first season as manager. That’s the silver lining in the Orioles’ 2019. At one point, they were 51 games out of first place and had the second-worst record in MLB. The Orioles’ 72-90 run line record was the third-lowest mark in baseball, and their Over/Under record was 80-71-11. It was the third consecutive season the Orioles finished Under their season win total.

Baltimore Orioles’ offseason

Ranked dead last in team payroll, the Orioles don’t have a lot of news to be excited about in this section. The added SS José Iglesias and SPs Wade LeBlanc, Tommy Milone and Kohl Stewart. Notable departures include SP Dylan Bundy and 2B Jonathan Villar.

Baltimore Orioles’ 2020 schedule

It’s an all-East regional format for the Orioles, which includes 40 games against AL East foes (10 games vs. each) and the other 20 games against NL East teams. Last season the Orioles’ 24-52 division record was the third-lowest mark in the MLB. 2020 figures to be a tough season for the Orioles, which already plays in a tough division, and slated to play a competitive NL East featuring reigning World Series champion Washington Nationals.

How many games will the Baltimore Orioles win in 2020?

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Sunday, July 5 at 3 p.m. ET.

The Orioles’ regular-season win total is 21.5 games (second-lowest on the board behind the Detroit Tigers’ 20.5 wins). The Under is a favored at -125 with the Over at +105. We’ve already discussed Baltimore’s horribleness last season and noted there wasn’t any talent acquired this offseason. The O’s suffered a major blow last month when RF Trey Mancini — their leader in doubles, home runs, runs batted in, on-base percentage and slugging percentage — was placed on the 60-day IL to recover from colon cancer surgery. Also, only one starting pitcher — ace John Means — had an above .500 record last season at 12-11.

2019 was a year-over-year improvement from 2018, but still, they finished Under their regular-season win total for a third straight season. BET ORIOLES UNDER 21.5 WINS (-125).

Baltimore Orioles’ World Series odds

Forget everything I said in their season wins handicap above because as the great Kevin Malone from “The Office” once said, “If anyone gives you 10,000 to 1 odds on anything, you take that bet.”

If you have a spare $10, why not pretty much throw it away on the ORIOLES +100000 TO WIN THE WORLD SERIES? It pays out $10,000.

Baltimore Orioles’ playoff odds

The Orioles going off at +8000 to win the AL East doesn’t meet that +10000 must bet minimum and Baltimore winning the division, even in a COVID-shortened regular season, would be similar to the Cleveland Indians’ miraculous run in the movie “Major League.” PASS ON THE ORIOLES TO MAKE THE PLAYOFFS.
