The Baltimore Orioles (26-36) and Toronto Blue Jays (36-24) meet Tuesday in the continuation of a 4-game AL East series at Rogers Centre. First pitch will be at 7:07 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Orioles vs. Blue Jays odds with MLB picks and predictions.
Season series: Blue Jays lead 1-0 after Monday’s 11-1 victory. In 20 games since the start of the 2021 season, the Jays have outscored the Orioles by 164-85.
Baltimore is just 11-21 in 32 road games this season.

Orioles at Blue Jays picks and predictions
Prediction
Orioles 6, Blue Jays 4
Money line
Lyles has been hurt by a .344 batting average on balls in play. And while the Orioles aren’t prolific on offense, they do lean heavily to the right and that could spell trouble for the lefty Kikuchi who has allowed an .845 OPS to righty bats over his career.
BALTIMORE (+175) is worth a partial-unit play.

Run line/Against the spread
PASS. Baltimore is the lean in principle, but the pricing here is not attractive.
Over/Under
Toronto’s recent exploits with the bat and a Baltimore bullpen in overestimated/fade territory make for a high-scoring game.
BACK THE OVER 9.5 (-108).
