Diamondbacks at Orioles picks and predictions

Prediction

Orioles 2, Diamondbacks 1

Moneyline

BET ORIOLES (-125). 

Baltimore is the much hotter team entering this matchup. The O’s are 8-2 in their last 10 games, while the D-backs are 5-5 in their last 10. The Orioles are also 5-1 in their last 6 home games.

Dating back to last season, Baltimore has won 4 consecutive matchups vs. Arizona and is 7-3 in the last 10 meetings, going back to 2016.

Run line/Against the spread

PASS.

I like Arizona to cover here as a +1.5 (-200) underdog, but the line is far too risky to wager on. Bet on the moneyline and/or Over/Under instead.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 8.5 (-120). 

The Under is 3-1-1 in Arizona’s last 5 games and is 6-3-1 in its last 10 outings.

For Baltimore, the Under is 4-1-1 in its last 6 home games and is 6-3-1 in its last 10 games, per Teamrankings.com.

The Under has also hit in 4 of the last 5 Arizona-Baltimore matchups in Baltimore, dating back 2016.

Nelson (2-2, 5.23 ERA) makes his 6th start. He has a 1.60 WHIP, 2.61 BB/9 and 6.97 K/9 in 20.2 innings.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

Diamondbacks at Orioles picks and predictions

Prediction

Baltimore 5, Arizona 2

Moneyline

PASS.

When the expectation is that Orioles will win by multiple runs, laying that much juice on the MoneyLine is not necessary,

Run line/Against the spread

BET ORIOLES -1.5 (+116).

Baltimore should be able to score multiple runs thanks to Henderson, who is tied with 1B Bryce Harper for 2nd highest hard-hit percentage (50.0%) vs. RHP among 192 qualified hitters. 3B Jordan Westburg, who has doubles in consecutive games and sports the 14th-best hard hit % vs. RHP (41.7%) should also help contribute for a deep Orioles lineup.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 8.5 (+100).

Even if it includes a minor league game, Means has been outstanding in his last 2 starts, and his opponent is no juggernaut offensively. Diamondbacks OF Corbin Carroll, last year’s NL Rookie of the Year is batting .200 this season and is 1 for his last 12. Slugger 1B Christian Walker has yet to homer this month, and it seems unlikely he will Saturday since Baltimore is not the HR haven it once was.

RP Yennier Cano entered into Friday’s game and picked up his 2nd save, so perhaps Baltimore can be stable once again in their back end. For Arizona, as long as Nelson can press the zone with his fastball like he did in a successful start this year vs. St. Louis, Baltimore’s big bats could stay in check at least initially enough for this game to stay Under.

Diamondbacks at Orioles picks and predictions

Prediction

Orioles 5, Diamondbacks 2

Moneyline

The Diamondbacks finally got over some offensive struggles but now face Irvin, who has not allowed any runs in his last 20 innings.

Arizona was held to 1 or fewer runs in 6 of 9 games before its winning streak.

Baltimore (-140) has allowed 2 or fewer runs in 7 of its last 9 games, but it usually wins by more than 1 run, so rather than betting the moneyline, look to the spread.

PASS.

Run line/Against the spread

The Orioles have two 1-run wins in their last 4 games, but all 5 of their wins with Irvin starting this season (they’re 5-1 in his starts) have been by multiple runs, and 20 of their 24 victories have been by at least 2 runs.

BET ORIOLES -1.5 (+145).

Over/Under

Irvin’s last 3 starts have not had more than 7 total runs.

Three of Pfaadt’s last 4 outings did not surpass 8 total runs.

Four of the last 5 for Arizona have had totals of 8 or more, but 11 of its last 15 have not reached 9 total runs.

BET UNDER 8 (-105).
