Los Angeles Angels vs Baltimore Orioles Prediction: Orioles to keep their strong form intact

The Baltimore Orioles and the Los Angeles Angels will meet for the second time this season as they open a three-game series at the Angel Stadium. In their first meeting, the Orioles picked two wins, while the Angels could only salvage something on the last day of the series. Let’s look into this game and provide betting opportunities.

The Los Angeles Angels are coming off a sweep against the Cincinnati Reds. In that sweep, Los Angeles Angels totaled six runs with five coming in one game, and the hosts now remain unbeaten in their last four matches. This season, the Los Angeles Angels are ranked 20th in the Majors in runs scored and 25th in team ERA. Taylor Ward leads the Angels with 26 hits, six home runs, and a team-high 21 RBIs. In the mound this Tuesday, Reid Detmers will start for the Los Angeles Angels, and this will be his fifth start of the season, with his first four starts ending in victories. His season debut was on the road, facing the Baltimore Orioles, where he gave up one run on two hits in five innings in a 4-1 Halos win.

The Baltimore Orioles are in fine form right now, and they will look to keep their solid performance going in this series. In their last matches, the Baltimore Orioles have won six out of seven, with their only loss coming against the Kansas City Royals in game one of their series. In their game three against the Kansas City Royals, the Orioles pulled off a road win in what ended 0-5, fielding four pitchers in a solid game. In the past week, the Baltimore Orioles could only avoid a sweep against the Milwaukee Brewers, and now, they have won two of their games against the City Royals while also pulling off a sweep against the Minnesota Twins.

This season, the Baltimore Orioles are ranked 3rd in baseball, fifth in the Majors in runs scored, and 13th in team ERA. For this game, Albert Suarez is projected to take the mound for the Baltimore Orioles, being his second start of the season. In his first start against the Minnesota Twins, Suarez had a 2/3 innings, allowing three hits in a 4-2 win.

Detmers is off to a good start for the Los Angeles Angels this season, and we can expect solid performance from him here. However, the Baltimore Orioles have had it easy against lefty pitchers over the last few weeks. They were one of the best road teams in baseball last season and have carried over that form to 2024. The Angels just had a disappointing offensive weekend in one of the most hitter-friendly ballparks in baseball, and I don’t envision that changing in this series, even at home. Take the Baltimore Orioles to win this game.
