Cleveland Indians vs. Baltimore Orioles MLB Picks, Odds, Predictions 6/6/2021

The Cleveland Indians and Baltimore Orioles meet Sunday in MLB action at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. The Indians look for a win after splitting their last 10 games. The Orioles need a win after losing 15 of their last 18 games.

The Cleveland Indians have scored 17 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in six of their last eight games. The Indians have won eight of their last 10 games when scoring four or more runs. Jose Ramirez leads the Indians with 51 hits and 31 RBI while Cesar Hernandez and Josh Naylor have combined for 90 hits and 32 RBI. Cal Quantrill gets the ball, and he is 0-1 with a 2.08 ERA and 25 strikeouts this season. This will be Quantrill’s second career game against the Orioles.

The Baltimore Orioles have scored 13 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in four of their last eight games. The Orioles have lost seven of their last nine games when scoring four or more runs. Cedric Mullins leads the Orioles with 65 hits and 14 RBI while Trey Mancini and Ryan Mountcastle have combined for 103 hits and 71 RBI. Jorge Lopez gets the ball, and he is 1-6 with a 5.29 ERA and 52 strikeouts this season. Lopez is 0-2 with a 9.00 ERA and 12 strikeouts in his career against the Indians.

The Indians are 8-3 in their last 11 Sunday games and 5-2 in their last 7 road games. The Orioles are 65-133 in their last 198 home games and 1-4 in their last 5 Sunday games. The under is 3-0-1 in Indians last 4 road games. The Indians are 14-6 in the last 20 meetings. The under is 35-15-1 in the last 51 meetings.

This line is rather surprising, as not only are the Indians the better team, but they have a clear pitching edge here. Jorge Lopez has not been good this season, and while he’s been improved lately, he still has an ERA over five on the year. Quantrill has been good in limited reps and he’s gotten deeper into games his last two contests. Give me the Indians.
