Angels vs Orioles Prediction
The Orioles are 7-3 in their last 10 meetings against the Angels but have lost their last two visits in Los Angeles.
In this Angels vs Orioles Prediction, the Orioles are coming as -150 home favorites. I like the under in this one as both offenses have been struggling lately, averaging just 5.8 runs per game combined in their last 10 games. The Orioles cannot hit lefties lately, scoring just 2 runs per game in their last 5 games against southpaws and Detmers has been in very good form lately, having given up just three runs in his last three starts. Take the under in this one.
