Baltimore Orioles vs. Texas Rangers: Which Team Will Win?
The Orioles have improved tremendously in this half of the MLB season, and they enter this series with a .500 record and three games out of the wild card, although they lost their last two games to the Cincinnati Reds.
Consequently, Baltimore has lost four of its last six away games, which feels like a bad precedent for this matchup at home to the Rangers. However, they could rely on their starter Spenser Watkins, who has allowed at most one run in four of his last five appearances, and in each one of them he pitched at least 5.0 innings.
As for the Rangers, they will return home after ten days on the road, and will arrive with confidence after winning three of four games in their previous series against the Angels, scoring an average of 5.2 runs in that series.
Their starter will be Jon Gray, who has had both good and bad performances this season, and while his last home appearance was 7.0 innings and no runs allowed, it was playing against Oakland that he had the worst offense in the majors.
We believe that the Orioles are favored to win this game to start the series on the right foot.
Pick: Orioles

Boston Red Sox vs. Houston Astros: Which Team Will Win?
While the Orioles have been on the rise, the Red Sox have fallen to the basement of their division with a 51-52 record after losing seven of their last ten games. And this match against the team with the second-best record in the league will be no cakewalk.
Playing away from home has not been good for Boston lately, allowing an average of 7.5 runs per game in his last seven appearances away from Fenway Park. At least they will feel the “relief” of having what is theoretically their best pitcher, Nathan Eovaldi, although he has allowed three or more runs in his last three starts, including nine against Toronto in a historic 28-5 loss.
Houston, which has won five of its last six games at Minute Maid Park, could take advantage of Boston’s poor momentum to take the win, especially with Luis García on the mound, since the Astros have won in the Venezuelan’s last four home starts.
Pick: Astros
