Let’s analyze Fanduel Sportsbook’s lines around the Mariners vs. Orioles and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.
Season series: First meeting; Mariners won 4 of 6 games in 2022
The Mariners avoided the sweep on Thursday night defeating the New York Yankees. After scoring just 15 runs over their previous 6 games, they produced 10 in the Bronx to win by 8. Seattle wraps up their 6-game road trip in Baltimore with a 3-game series.
The Orioles return home after going 3-2 on their 5-game road trip. They kick off a 9-game homestand against the Mariners. Baltimore is 8-6 against the AL West this season.

Mariners at Orioles picks and predictions
Prediction
Orioles 4, Mariners 2
Moneyline
ORIOLES (-110) is my bet in this game. I like the Orioles to take care of business at home where they are 22-13 on the season. The Mariners are also just 4-8 on the season against the AL East.
Run line/Against the spread
AVOID.
While I like the Orioles to win, there is no guarantee that they’ll cover the run line. Seattle has a good pitcher on the mound and Gilbert will keep them in this game. He has won 2 of his last 3 road starts.

Over/Under
Aside from Seattle’s offensive explosion on Thursday night, they have struggled to score more than 3 runs in a game over the last 2 weeks. The Mariners have been under this run total in 6 of their last 7 games.
Gibson had held his opponents to 3 ER or fewer in 7 of his last 8 starts.
BET UNDER 8 (-104).
