Baltimore Orioles vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction

I’m on the Dodgers in this one. I get the case to be made for the Orioles at a nice plus price as they’ve started to be competitive, but this is still a big time mismatch in my eyes and I think Yamamoto is still the far more consistent and trustworthy starting pitching option. I’m looking for another strong start from the Dodgers’ ace and for the Orioles to be held in check once again. Give me the Dodgers.
