Baltimore’s 6-3 win over the Yankees on Wednesday snapped New York’s two-game win streak in this head-to-head matchup.
Trends
Baltimore is 11-5 in their last 16 division games and 2-6 in their last 8 games overall while the over is 3-0-1 in their last 4 games against a team with a winning record. New York is 5-2 in their last 7 games overall and 4-1 in their last 5 home games while the under is 5-2 in their last 7 game four matchups.
Pick
I’m backing the Orioles here. The Yankees have had some offensive outbursts here and there, but the problem is that for the better part of the last month plus, since Aaron Judge went down, and Wednesday’s matchup was a prime example of that. Kyle Bradish has been electric in recent starts and while Severino’s had success against the O’s in the past, this is the best O’s team we have seen in a few years. Give me Baltimore.
