Orioles at Blue Jays picks and predictions

Prediction

Orioles 5, Blue Jays 4

Moneyline

The ORIOLES (-122) are worth a look in this series opener at Rogers Centre behind Rodriguez.

Rodriguez hasn’t been terribly strong on the road, but Gausman has struggled mightily at home for the Blue Jays (+104), too. This game has the potential to be a nailbiter for bettors, coming right down to the late innings.

Run line/Against the spread

The BLUE JAYS +1.5 (-154) are a decent play if you aren’t comfortable betting the road team. Toronto is 14-13 at home, although Baltimore is 16-8 on the road this season, so take that into consideration.

If you back the Jays and Gausman, go lightly. As an underdog, Toronto has cashed in 4 straight games on the run line as a ‘dog, with 2 outright wins, including May 13 in Baltimore.

Over/Under

OVER 7.5 (-122) is worth a look in this series opener between AL East rivals.

Rodriguez has posted a 5.48 ERA in 4 road starts, while Gausman has managed a dismal 6.20 ERA in 5 home assignments. We should see the bats come alive for both sides on Monday, and it’s the best bet on the table.
