Why Should You Put Your Money on Baltimore?

Chris Davis is making the Orioles glad that they inked him to a seven-year, $161 million deal in the offseason. He scored the winning run on Opening Day and then slammed a home run to dead center in the third inning to give the O’s all of the offense they would need. In the past, Davis has tended to fall into high-strikeout slumps, but as time has gone by, he has controlled his swing more successfully and has become one of the AL’s premier sluggers.

Why Should You Bet on the the Rays?

Erasmo Ramirez is proving himself to be a dependable bullpen member for the Rays. In the last two innings of the Rays’ win over Toronto on Wednesday, he only permitted a single hit. Souza slammed two home runs, including the game-winning three-run blast in the eighth inning, and now the Rays have homered in 18 straight regular season games. Given their strengths on defense, if they can keep the offense humming, they will be a threat in the AL East this year.

Expert Betting Pick and Final Score Prediction

I like the Orioles to keep their winning ways going and beat Tampa Bay on Friday. I’m predicting a 4-1 Baltimore win.
