Baltimore Orioles vs Oakland Athletics Prediction 6/7/25 MLB Picks

In this article, we will formulate an Orioles vs Athletics prediction for this MLB game on Saturday, June 7, at Sutter Health Park in Sacramento, California. Let’s take a look at the prediction for this MLB matchup.

Baltimore Orioles Betting Preview

The Baltimore Orioles (25-37, 13-20 Away) are playing well; they won nine of the last 12 games. After getting back-to-back sweeps of the White Sox and Mariners, the Orioles found themselves on a six-game winning streak, but couldn’t make it seven in a row after losing Game 1 of the current series against the Athletics. In that 5-4 defeat, Dylan Carlson led the offense with two RBI, while Dean Kremer took the loss after allowing five runs on eight hits with two strikeouts and one walk in 5.1 innings. 

This season, the Orioles average 3.84 runs per game (25th in the MLB) on a .237/.302/.386 triple-slash. When it comes to pitching, the Orioles’ staff has a 5.10 ERA (28th) and 1.43 WHIP (27th). Cedric Mullins leads the Orioles with a .232 batting average, ten home runs, and 31 RBI this season.

Charlie Morton will take the mound for the Orioles on Saturday. The 41-year-old right-hander has a 2-7 record in eight starts this year with a 6.20 ERA and 1.58 WHIP in 53.2 innings.

Athletics Betting Preview

The Athletics (25-40, 11-22 Home) ended their nine-game losing streak with a 14-3 victory against the Minnesota Twins, scoring a season-high 14 runs along the way. The A’s recorded back-to-back wins for the first time in a month following a 5-4 win against Baltimore on Friday. Jacob Wilson led the offense with two RBI, while JP Sears got the win after allowing four runs on four hits with three strikeouts and three walks in 5.0 innings. 

This year, the Athletics average 4.30 runs per game (15th in the MLB) on a .256/.323/.421 triple-slash. When it comes to pitching, the Athletics’ staff has a 5.79 ERA (30th) and 1.54 WHIP (29th). Tyler Soderstrom leads the Athletics with a .253 batting average, 14 home runs, and 43 RBI this season.

The projected starting pitcher for the Athletics is Luis Severino, who is 1-5 in 13 starts this season, with a 4.54 ERA and 1.27 WHIP in 77.1 innings.

Orioles vs Athletics Prediction

The Orioles won six of the previous ten H2H encounters. Seven of Baltimore’s last ten games went Under, and I am going with Under here because of a high total, set at 10.5 runs. Charlie Morton, who struggled heavily in April, improved significantly in May and allowed more than two runs just once in his last eight appearances. Luis Severino, on the other hand, experienced his worst start of the season last time out when he surrendered eight runs in 5.2 innings against the Twins. Severino registered three straight quality starts and allowed only three runs prior to that weak display. I am backing Severino to bounce back here and keep the O’s in check. Go with Under.
