Braves at Orioles picks and predictions

Prediction

Orioles 3, Braves 2

Moneyline

LEAN ORIOLES (-115).

Baltimore is 6-0 in its last 6 games and 8-2 in its last 10, while Atlanta has lost 5 straight and is 3-7 in its last 10. The Orioles are also 3-2 in the last 5 meetings.

This is only a lean because Atlanta is 4-3 in the last 5 meetings in Baltimore.

Run line/Against the spread

PASS.

I expect Baltimore to cover here as a +1.5 (-190) underdog, but the line is not worth betting on at this price. Bet on the moneyline and/or total instead.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 9 (-115).

The Under has hit in 3 consecutive home games for the Orioles. For Atlanta, the Under is 4-2 in its last 6 road games and 6-4 in its last 10 overall. The Under has also hit in 3 straight Atlanta-Baltimore matchups and is 7-3 in the last 10 meetings.

Braves at Orioles picks and predictions

Prediction

Orioles 6, Braves 5

Moneyline

LEAN ORIOLES (-125).

The Orioles are 7-3 in their last 10 games including 5-0 in their last 5. They have held opponents to 3 or fewer runs in each of their last 5 games while scoring 4 or more in each game during that span. The Braves are just 4-6 in their last 10 including 0-4 in their last 4 and 1-5 in their last 6 on the road. Wednesday will be a battle between 2 rookie starting pitchers with 3 games total experience combined.

Run line/Against the spread

PASS.

There is minimal value on the run line in this matchup.

Over/Under

BET OVER 9 (+100).

With both pitchers having an 8.30 ERA or above through their first few starts, going against 2 of the top offenses in the MLB, the Over has a strong chance of hitting. The Braves have hit the Over in 2 of their last 3 games while the Orioles have scored 5 or more runs in 7 of their last 9.

Atlanta Braves at Baltimore Orioles odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Tuesday’s Atlanta Braves at Baltimore Orioles odds and lines, with MLB expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Atlanta Braves (35-28) and Baltimore Orioles (43-22) begin a 3-game series Tuesday. First pitch from Oriole Park at Camden Yards is slated for 6:35 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Braves vs. Orioles odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: First meeting; Braves won 2 of 3 in 2023

Atlanta is 2-4 on its 9-game road trip which concludes in Baltimore. They lost their 3rd straight game on Sunday, 8-5 to the Washington Nationals. RHP Hurston Waldrep was beat up in his MLB debut (3 2/3 IP, 7 ER, 4 H, 4 BB, 1 K). The majority of the Braves offense came off the bat of LF Jarred Kelenic, with a 9th-inning 3-run HR.

The Orioles completed a 4-game sweep of the Tampa Bay Rays in St. Petersburg on Monday evening. SS Gunnar Henderson went 3-for-5 with a HR on the 1st pitch of the game. Baltimore also got 3 RBI from DH Ryan O’Hearn and a solo HR fom C James McCann. RHP Corbin Burnes did not allow an ER and RHP Craig Kimbrel earned his 15th save.

Braves at Orioles projected starters

LHP Max Fried vs. RHP Albert Suarez

Fried (6-2, 2.93 ERA) makes his 13th start. He has a 1.02 WHIP, 2.7 BB/9 and 8.2 K/9 in 73 2/3 IP.

  • Last start: Win, 7 IP, 2 R (1 ER), 4 H, 1 BB, 13 K in 8-3 victory at Boston Red Sox last Tuesday
  • Career vs Orioles: 1-1, 3.00 ERA, 15 IP, 12 H, 5 ER, 2 BB, 11 K in 2 games

Saurez (2-0, 1.83 ERA) makes his 13th appearance and 7th start. He has a 1.02 WHIP, 2.5 BB/9 and 7.6 K/9 in 39 1/3 IP.

  • Last start: No-decision, 5 IP, 2 ER, 5 H, 1 BB, 4 K in 3-2 loss at Toronto Blue Jays Wednesday
  • Career vs Braves: 0-1, 5.79 ERA, 9 1/3 IP, 8 H, 6 ER, 2 BB, 9 K in 2 games

Braves at Orioles picks and predictions

Prediction

Orioles 6, Braves 4

Moneyline.

BET ORIOLES (+116).

Fried has won 3 straight starts and 4 of his last 5, but that run comes to an end in Baltimore on Tuesday. The Orioles have owned lefties with a record of 13-5 and over .800 OPS on the season. They are also 22-12 at Camden Yards winning 4 of their last 6 games.

Atlanta was a pre-season World Series favorite, but they have played below .500 baseball over their last 30 games. They just dropped 3 games in a row to a far inferior Nationals team. All the momentum is on the Orioles side heading into this series.

Run line/Against the spread

PASS.

I’m keeping my wager to the moneyline in this one.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 8 (-112).

I don’t love the trends toward that bet. I’m not going to make it a strong recommendation because the teams are 2-6 against the Over in their last 8  meetings.

Atlanta is 3-3 against the Over and the Orioles are 3-2-1 in their last 6 games.
