Baltimore Orioles vs LA Dodgers Prediction

The LA Dodgers are going to be favored because they're at home, and they're the Dodgers. The problem is Walker Buehler hasn't been good in his limited sample size, and this Orioles' lineup probably isn't one you use to find your footing. We're also getting one of the best teams in baseball and Burnes as an underdog. This will be just the 17th time since June where the Orioles are an underdog. Give me the Orioles and the more favorable price.
