MLB Betting Trends
Baltimore
The Orioles are 84-203 in their last 287 games overall. Baltimore is 16-41 in its last 57 Friday games.
Los Angeles
The Angels are 4-0 in their last four game twos of a series. Los Angeles is 2-7 in its last nine Friday games.
Prediction:
While we don't know who the Angels' starter will be due to Canning being forced into action last night, while the O's will go with Wojciechowski after he was dominant his last start. Whle the O's are big underdogs and their bullpen is cashed, so is the Angels' and at least Baltimore has a fairly trustworthy starting pitcher going. I'm going with my gut and taking the Orioles to win again tonight as big underdogs.
