Orioles vs Rangers MLB Betting Preview
Baltimore Orioles Betting Preview
The Orioles (56-60) will look to snap a two-game losing streak. They dropped the series opener against the Rangers 2-1. This team's bats have been lifeless in the last two games, combining for only two runs.
They'll look to Kyle Bradish in this start. The veteran righty lasted only three innings in his last turn, but that was because of a rain delay. Playing in a pitcher-friendly environment like Globe Life Field, we could see a quality outing here.
Texas Rangers Betting Preview
The Rangers (58-58) have won three games in a row, giving up a combined five runs during this stretch. Their bullpen shut the door on Friday night, picking up Nathan Eovaldi, who was only able to go 5.1 innings.
Texas is sending out Jacob deGrom here, who is looking to bounce back from a poor outing vs. the Astros, where he gave up five earned runs in 3.1 innings.
Orioles vs Rangers Pick, Betting Analysis
I'm taking the Orioles ML over the Rangers. I like the value we're getting at +124 odds as I'm writing this article.
This is a fade for Jacob deGrom, who has quietly been underwhelming for a while now. In his last 13 starts, deGrom has a 4.83 ERA and a 1.29 WHIP with a 1.30 HR/9 in 69 innings. He's gone five innings or fewer in four consecutive outings, giving up five earned runs in two of his last three turns.
With Nathan Eovaldi only going 5.1 innings on Friday, the Rangers deployed their high-leverage relievers, namely Jacob Latz, who went two innings for the save. This means that he's likely unavailable for this one.
Meanwhile, Shane Baz went eight innings for the Orioles, so they didn't use their bullpen at all. While Kyle Bradish has been inconsistent, he's shown a high ceiling, with eight starts this season allowing one or fewer earned runs.
Considering these circumstances, we're getting an appealing price on the Orioles here.
Pick: Orioles ML
