The Baltimore Orioles (22-43) and Cleveland Indians (35-28) play the second of a four-game set Tuesday at 7:10 p.m. ET at Progressive Field. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook‘s lines around the Orioles vs. Indians odds with MLB picks and predictions.
RHP Matt Harvey is the projected starting pitcher for the Orioles. He is 3-7 with a 7.41 ERA, 1.68 WHIP, 7.7 K/9 and 3.0 BB/9 in 54 2/3 IP over 13 starts.
Harvey was hammered last time out for seven earned runs, eight hits and a walk across three innings. He has lost six straight decisions since May 1 across his past seven starts.
RHP Cal Quantrill is the projected starting pitcher for the Indians. He is 0-2 with a 3.21 ERA, 1.37 WHIP, 7.5 K/9 and 3.2 BB/9 in 33 2/3 IP over 2 starts and 18 relief appearances.
Quantrill has just two starts, but one of them came against the O’s in Baltimore. He was smashed for seven runs (five earned) and five hits while retiring just four batters in a loss June 6.

Money line (ML)
INDIANS (-160) is the play here at home as they look to win for the second time in as many nights against the Orioles (+135). Cleveland sent Baltimore to its fifth straight loss, but the Indians are still just 2-2 against the Orioles this season.
Cleveland is the play there, though, as Harvey has been atrocious. He was crushed by his former team, the New York Mets, last time out, and the O’s are 1-6 across his past seven appearances.

Run line/Against the spread (ATS)
The INDIANS -1.5 (+120) are worth playing at home as they look to keep Harvey down. The Orioles +1.5 (-145) pitchers have coughed up five or more runs in five of the past six outings.
Over/Under (O/U)
The OVER 8.5 (-120) is the play as Quantrill was smashed by the Orioles in his most recent start, and we touched on Harvey and his struggles above. The Over is the best play on the board in this game.
