Orioles at Nationals picks and predictions

Prediction

Orioles 6, Nationals 3

Money line

For interleague games, these teams trend in opposite directions. The Orioles are 5-1 in their last 6 interleague games when facing a left-handed starter. The Nationals are 0-4 in their last 4 interleague home games against teams with a winning record.

BET ORIOLES -145

Run line/Against the spread

The Orioles were unable to cover the last game, despite their MLB leading 88-53 ATS. You can still get plus money picking the Orioles which is good enough for me.

LEAN ORIOLES -1.5 (+115).

Over/Under

The Over is 5-1 in Nationals last 6 games after a loss. The Orioles lean toward the Over in the 2nd game of a series, hitting it 12 of the last 19 games.

LEAN OVER 8.5 (-107).
