Baltimore Orioles vs. Colorado Rockies Prediction
I’m on the Orioles here. I get the made for either side in this game, but Sugano’s started to struggle big tie in recent outings and I think the Orioles add to Sugano’s misery here in his current form. On the other side, Colorado’s had offensive issues more often than not over the course of the season against lefties and I look for the Orioles to take care of business here. Give me Baltimore.
