Orioles vs Tigers Prediction
Detroit comes into this series as one of the top teams in the AL to start the season, while Baltimore is trying to get out of last place in the NL East. The Tigers are 10-3 at home this year, while the Orioles are 5-8 on the road. Baltimore is really struggling to score runs right now, as they have scored a total of seven runs in their last four games. Detroit is the much better team right now, and I expect them to roll over Morton in game one. In game two, I don’t like either starting pitcher, and I think we will see plenty of runs.
