Orioles vs Angels Prediction
The Orioles are 7-1 in their last 8 meetings against the Angels and are 4-1 in their last 5 visits in Los Angeles.
In this Orioles vs Angels Prediction, the Orioles are coming as -170 road favorites. I like the Orioles in this spot, as Baz has been the far safer option than Ryan Johnson. Baz has been in very good form lately and has been better on the road, while Johnson has been terrible in both of his starts this season, having given up 5 and 6 runs in each. The Orioles also have both a better offense and a better bullpen and I expect them to take care of business on the road in this one.
