Analyzing Saturday’s Oakland A’s at Baltimore Orioles odds and lines, with MLB expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Oakland A’s (11-16)and Baltimore Orioles (16-9) play the 2nd game of their 3-game series Saturday. First pitch from Oriole Park at Camden Yards is slated for 4:05 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the A’s vs. Orioles odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: A’s lead 1-0

The A’s stole the series opener 3-2 in 10 innings Friday. Oakland forced extra innings on an RBI double from 3B Abraham Toro in the top of the 9th off RHP Craig Kimbrel. RF Brent Rooker brought home the eventual game-winning run on an RBI double in the top of the 10th. The A’s have failed to score more than 3 runs in 9 straight games.

Baltimore wasted a great start from ace RHP Corbin Burnes (6 IP, 1 ER, 6 K) Friday night. RHP Ross Stripling kept the potent Orioles offense contained to 2 earned runs. The only offense Baltimore could muster was an RBI single from DH Ryan O’Hearn and a solo shot from CF Cedric Mullins. The Orioles have held their opponents to 3 runs per game in their last 4 at home.

A’s at Orioles projected starters

RHP JP Sears vs. RHP Cole Irvin

Sears (1-1, 3.38 ERA) makes his 6th start. He has a 1.05 WHIP, 3.4 BB/9 and 5.4 K/9 in 26 2/3 innings.

  • Last start: No-decision, 6 IP, 0 ER, 3 H, 1 BB, 7 K in 2-0 loss at New York Yankees Monday

A’s at Orioles picks and predictions

Prediction

A’s 4, Orioles 2

Moneyline.

BET A’S (+145).

Sears has been lights out for the A’s, allowing just 1 earned run in his last 17 1/3 innings. In his 3 starts away from Oakland, he has a record of 1-0 with a 2.00 ERA. His OBA is also just .164 in road games.

Irvin looked good in his last outing, but in his 2 starts at home, he is 0-1 with a 5.59 ERA. Batters are hitting .317 against him at Camden Yards. The A’s bats have to wake up sooner or later.

Run line/Against the spread

PASS.

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

Over/Under

BET UNDER 8 (-105).

As I’ve mentioned a few times, it’s been 9 games since the A’s scored more than 3 runs. They Under has hit in 4 of their last 5 games. Despite all that, I think they break that streak Saturday, but not by much.

Sears has been untouchable his last 3 starts, and he’s been even better on the road. Even with all that firepower in the Orioles lineup, the Under has hit in 3 of their last 5 games.

The Oakland A’s (10-16) and Baltimore Orioles (16-8) begin a 3-game series Friday. First pitch from Oriole Park at Camden Yards is slated for 7:05 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the A’s vs. Orioles odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: First meeting; Orioles won 6 of 7 in 2023

The A’s improved to 2-5 on their 10-game road trip after winning 3-1 in New York Thursday night. They continue to struggle scoring and it’s been 8 games since Oakland produced more than 3 runs. LF Tyler Nevin and SS Nick Allen homered and LHP Alex Wood allowed 1 run in 5 2/3 innings to earn  his 1st victory of the season.

Baltimore finished their 6-game road trip 4-2 after a 6-5 victory over the Los Angeles Angels on Wednesday afternoon. SS Gunnar Henderson carried the Orioles, going 3-for-3 with a HR, a double, 3 RBIs and 3 runs scored. RHP Dean Kremer struck out 10 Angels in 5 1/3 IP to earn his 1st win.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

A’s at Orioles picks and predictions

Prediction

Orioles 5, Athletics 1

Moneyline.

PASS.

I love the Orioles (-275) to start this series on a high note coming home after a long road trip. I’m just not going to pay nearly 3 units to win 1, I’ll pay less juice on the run line.

Run line/Against the spread

BET ORIOLES -1.5 (-125).

Baltimore has won — and covered — each of their last 4 games at Camden Yards, averaging 7 runs per game over that stretch. They are also 11-4 against right-handed pitchers this season.

The A’s have really struggled against right-handed pitching, hitting .200 for the season and going 7-11. Oakland is also 2-5 against the AL East.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 7.5 (-110).

The Orioles traded for their ace Burnes this offseason and he’s been everything they’ve wanted and more. He’s allowed 1, 2, 1, 2, and 3 runs in his 5 starts this season. This A’s lineup which is already struggling to score runs will have their work cut out for them on Friday night.

Despite being 0-5, Stripling has not pitched as bad as his record would indicate. Baltimore’s bats have not been as dynamic against right-handed pitching, which is why I believe they are held to 5 runs or less on Friday.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Toronto Blue Jays (70-57) conclude a 3-game series against the Baltimore Orioles (78-48) on Thursday at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05 p.m. ET (MLB Network). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Blue Jays vs. Orioles odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

In Wednesday’s lopsided win, OF Anthony Santander delivered 2 HRs for the Orioles. Baltimore has won 7 of its last 10 contests and is 2 games ahead of the Tampa Bay Rays for 1st place in the AL East.

Blue Jays at Orioles projected starters

RHP Jose Berrios vs. RHP Kyle Gibson

Berrios (9-8, 3.39 ERA) makes his 26th start. He has a 1.21 WHIP, 2.7 BB/9 and 8.6 K/9 in 146 innings.

  • Last start: No decision, 5 2/3 IP, 0 ER, 1 H, 4 BB, 8 K in a 1-0 road loss to the Cincinnati Reds on Friday

Blue Jays at Orioles picks and predictions

Prediction

Blue Jays 4, Orioles 3

Moneyline

While both of the pitchers in this divisional matchup have had success against the opposing team in their career, I’ll back the BLUE JAYS (-110) on the road on Thursday. Berrios boasts a 10-0 record against the Orioles in 13 career starts, including a road win earlier this season.

Run line/Against the spread

Even though this game should be close, I’ll PASS on taking the run line as -175 odds for the Orioles to cover the spread isn’t worth the risk.

Over/Under

UNDER 9 (-120) is the play in this game despite Gibson’s recent struggles on the mound. The Under is 4-2 in the last 6 meetings overall.

The Blue Jays have also hit the Over in only 2 of their last 7 road games.

The Baltimore Orioles (60-38) conclude a 4-game series against the Tampa Bay Rays (61-41) Sunday at Tropicana Field. First pitch is set for 1:40 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Orioles vs. Rays odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Orioles at Rays picks and predictions

Prediction

Orioles 5, Rays 4

Moneyline

Given Bradley’s recent struggles, and how these teams have performed recently, I’ll back the ORIOLES (+115) on the road. Tampa Bay has cooled off at home in recent series, while Baltimore has won 7 of its last 10 road games.

Even though I have the Orioles winning outright on Sunday against their AL East foes, I’ll PASS on their run line at the current odds (-175).

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 8.5 (-110).

Wells has surrendered multiple ER in 8 straight starts and Bradley has struggled to limit runs in recent starts. The Orioles are 7-3 to the Over in their last 10 games overall. And the Rays have achieved the Over in 32 of their last 53 games at home.

Prediction

Orioles 6, Dodgers 5

With both of these teams playing at a high level right now, I’ll side with the ORIOLES (-115) at home. Baltimore is 29-18 at home this season compared to Los Angeles’ 24-23 road record.

Over/Under

OVER 9.5 (-105) has solid value with how these teams have performed recently. Sheehan is coming off a start in which he allowed 5 ER to the Pittsburgh Pirates, and while Rodriguez has looked good in his recent Triple-A stint, the Dodgers have the 2nd-best ISO (.198), the 5th-best wOBA (.335), and the 5th-best wRC+ (112) against righties this season.

The Orioles are also 6-2-2 to the Over in their last 10 games overall.

Reds at Orioles picks and predictions

Prediction

Reds 6, Orioles 5

Moneyline

Take the red-hot REDS (+110) Monday despite that the Orioles are 24-14 at home and are one of the best teams in baseball. Since the start of May, Cincinnati has the 5th-best ISO (.188), the 6th-best wOBA (.347), and is tied for the 8th-best wRC+ (111) against left-handed pitching.

Run line/Against the spread

REDS +1.5 (-165) is the play for the run line if you aren’t comfortable taking the moneyline and want a run of insurance. Cincinnati has gone 14 straight games where it has either won or lost by 1 run.

Over/Under

OVER 9.5 (-110) is how I’d wager on the run total with struggling southpaws taking the mound for both teams. While they’ve been slightly worse against lefties recently, the Orioles still boast the 11th-best ISO (.167), are tied for the 10th-best wOBA (.331) and are tied for the 7th-best wRC+ (112) against left-handed pitching this season.

The Reds are 7-3 to the Over in their last 10 games overall, while the Orioles are 5-1 to the Over in their last 6 games overall.

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).

Guardians at Orioles picks and predictions

Prediction

Orioles 5, Guardians 3

Moneyline

With Gibson having a renaissance of sorts to begin the season, the ORIOLES (-155) are the pick. The Orioles are 16-11 at home while the  Guardians are 12-14 on the road.

Run line/Against the spread

ORIOLES -1.5 (+135) has solid value with Quantrill taking the bump for the Guardians. Quantrill isn’t missing bats with a minuscule 12.4% strikeout rate and the Orioles potentially have 5 players in their lineup who have a barrel rate of 7% or higher.

The Under has hit in 5 straight meetings between the teams and the Under is 34-16-1 in the last 51 meetings overall.

Pirates at Orioles picks and predictions

Prediction

Orioles 6, Pirates 3

Moneyline

With how the Pirates have performed recently, I’ll take the ORIOLES (-145) at home in Friday’s interleague bout.

Run line/Against the spread

ORIOLES -1.5 (+135) has great value with the recent struggles of the Pirates. Bradish hasn’t been lights out this season, but Baltimore’s bullpen has been one of the best groups thus far.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 8.5 (-115).

Both Oviedo and Bradish have been allowing runs in bunches in recent starts, and both teams have shown this season that they are capable of producing runs quickly. The Over is 4-1-1 in the last 6 meetings in Baltimore and 7-2-1 in the last 10 meetings overall.

Rays at Orioles projected starters

LHP Jalen Beeks vs. RHP Dean Kremer

Beeks (1-2, 6.75 ERA) makes his 3rd start and 14th appearance. He has a 1.44 WHIP, 5.6 BB/9 and 6.2 K/9 through 16 IP.

  • Hasn’t logged more than 3 innings in either of his first 2 starts, so is likely to serve as an opener Wednesday
  • His BB/9 is inflated as he walked 5 batters on Apr. 17 vs. the Cincinnati Reds but has only 5 combined walks in his other 12 appearances this season

Kremer (3-1, 5.80 ERA) makes his 8th start. He has a 1.54 WHIP, 2.8 BB/9 and 7.1 K/9 through 35 2/3 IP.

Rays at Orioles picks and predictions

Prediction

Rays 6, Orioles 3

Moneyline

I’ll take the RAYS (-120) on the road in Wednesday’s showdown despite that they’re rolling out Beeks and a bullpen game. Tampa Bay has tallied a 36-15 record against Baltimore in the last 51 meetings.

Run line/Against the spread

The RAYS -1.5 (+135) are solid value with Tampa Bay’s bullpen likely getting a ton of work on Wednesday. Tampa’s bullpen has the 3rd-best ERA (3.01) and the best opponents’ batting average (.200) in baseball this season.

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 9.5 (-115).

The Rays should be able to produce a decent number of runs on Kremer, but Tampa Bay’s bullpen should handle business after Beeks exits the game. The Under is 5-2 in the last 7 meetings between these teams in Baltimore.
