The Baltimore Orioles and the Oakland Athletics will kick off a four-game set from Camden Yards this Monday evening. Oakland won four of seven meetings last season, but Baltimore did take two of three at home.
Athletics Betting Preview
Oakland dropped to 2-7 after being swept by Tampa Bay. The Athletics endured an embarrassing weekend, and were outscored 31-5 by the Rays in three games. The Oakland offense is scoring 3.00 runs per game, while batting .209, with a .284 on-base percentage. The pitching staff carries a 7.00 ERA, with a 1.63 WHIP. Tony Kemp has been one of the lone positive spots offensively after recording a RBI in three of the last five games.
JP Sears (0-0, 5.79 ERA, 5 Ks) will get the start for Oakland. The second-year lefty had a decent debut versus Cleveland, striking out five in nearly as many innings of work. Sears gave up eight hits, and he may be vulnerable to this Baltimore lineup.
Orioles Betting Preview
Baltimore fell to 4-5 after losing to New York on Sunday. The Orioles trailed the Yankees throughout, and a failed rally led to a two-run loss, 5-3. The Baltimore offense is scoring 5.00 runs per game, while batting .245, with a .337 on-base percentage. The pitching staff carries a 5.30 ERA, with a 1.31 WHIP. Jorge Mateo has recorded a multi-hit game in each of the first three series, and he lead’s Baltimore in BA (.350). Cedric Mullins leads the team with 8 RBI.
Kyle Gibson (2-0, 4.50 ERA, 8 Ks) will take the bump for Baltimore. The tenth-year pitcher cleaned up an uneasy Orioles debut by going seven innings and only allowing two runs versus the Rangers last time out. This will mark Gibson’s first start at Camden Yards, and he’s coming into a good spot facing an underwhelming Oakland team.
Oakland vs Baltimore Trends
Oakland is 3-5 against the spread this season, with a 4-3-1 over/under record. Baltimore is 2-6 ATS this year, with a 4-4 O/U record.
Corey's Free Pick
Oakland looks like they’ll be one of the worst teams in the majors once again this season, and they should be targeted until they show some signs of life. The Orioles played the Yankees very well, and represent the stronger team, so with the advantage at the plate and the mound, I like them taking game one comfortably. Trust Baltimore this Monday.
