Athletics Betting Preview
Oakland dropped to 2-8 following the loss to Baltimore. The Athletics continue to struggle at a high rate, and it’s unclear when the tide will turn for them.. The Oakland offense is scoring 2.81 runs per game, while batting .198, with a .270 on-base percentage. The pitching staff carries a 7.36 ERA, with a 1.65 WHIP. Ramon Laureano recorded the lone RBI against the Orioles, and he leads the A’s in batting average (.250).
Kyle Muller (0-0, 2.53 ERA, 8 Ks) will get the start for Oakland. The third-year lefty has been one of the lone bright spots in the rotation for the A’s so far. Muller was solid in debut versus LAA, and he only allowed two runs in just over five innings of work against Cleveland last week.
Orioles Betting Preview
Baltimore moved to 5-5 after defeating Oakland. The Orioles jumped back into the win column last night versus the A’s, and they’ll look to double down here. The Baltimore offense is scoring 5.05 runs per game, while batting .236, with a .325 on-base percentage. The pitching staff carries a 4.83 ERA, with a 1.28 WHIP. Ryan Mountcastle hit his second homer of the season last night, and he’s up to 7 RBI. Adley Rutschman has recorded a hit in four straight games, and he leads Baltimore in batting average (.375).
Grayson Rodridguez (0-0, 3.60 ERA, 5 Ks) will take the bump for Baltimore. The rookie pitcher performed well in his first MLB start, striking out five in five innings on the road against Texas last week.
Oakland vs Baltimore Trends
Oakland is 3-7 against the spread this season, with a 6-3-1 over/under record. Baltimore is 6-4 ATS this year, with a 6-4 O/U record.
Corey's Free Pick
It looks like Oakland will be vulnerable to defeat each time out in the early going, and game two should be no different. Kyle Muller does represent the best arm they have, but it’s unlikely he receives the run support to complete the mission. Roll with Baltimore again on Tuesday evening.
