Orioles vs Mariners Prediction

The current betting odds have the Mariners listed as a favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Mariners have looked good in their games this season with their 37-36 record overall which has them right at the top of the AL West. They have looked better in their own ballpark too with their 19-16 home record this season. Meanwhile, the Orioles haven't looked good in their games this season with their 34-39 record overall which has them right near the bottom of the AL East. They have been a terrible road team too with their 12-20 road record this year. Neither team has looked great lately as both are 4-6 in their last 10 games respectively, but both are going to have solid starters here. The Orioles are going with Young in this one and he has looked great this season. He is 5-1 with a 3.04 ERA and the team has been having a ton of success with him. He gave up no runs in his last start which was against the Mariners and his team has won 7 games in a row now with him pitching, but that streak is due to come to an end. The Mariners have been hot with their offense over the last week and the Orioles have also looked like a different team on the road this season. The Mariners are going with Gilbert in this one and he has looked great this season too. He is 4-4 with a 3.62 ERA and lately he hasn't been giving up many runs. He only gave up 1 earned run against the Orioles in his last start which has been a common theme for him, and the team has won 4 games in a row now with him starting. The Mariners are going to be looking to bounce back after that bad series against the Nationals over the weekend and they will edge the Orioles out at home with better pitching all-around. The best way to place a bet here is on the Mariners to win this game.

Notable Quotes

“A chance for him to make sure he was OK, and get him off of his feet for the rest of that one.” - Dan Wilson on the injury to Josh Naylor after his team’s loss against the Nationals in their game on Sunday.
