Orioles vs Blue Jays Prediction
Baltimore comes into this matchup playing some of their best baseball of the season, as they are looking for their sixth win in a row. The O’s are 27-26 at home this year, while the Blue Jays are 26-29 on the road. Toronto has really fallen off over the last four games, but they will start Berrios, who has allowed two earned runs or fewer in two of his last four starts. Baltimore is going with Kremer, who has allowed 5, 1, 0, and 5 earned runs in his last four outings. I think the pitching matchup is very similar, but I am going to side with Toronto, as I do think they have a much better lineup.
