Orioles vs Twins Analysis<\/h2>\n

The Minnesota Twins begin a four game series with the Orioles at the beautiful Camden Yards in Baltimore. The Twins improved to 13-9 after taking two of three from the Rays in Tampa Bay.<\/p>\n

The Orioles took two of three at home against the Boston Red Sox, upping their record to 8-14 on the season. Tyler Wells get the nod for the O’s, while newly acquired Chris Paddack toes the rubber for Minnesota. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05 PM EST.<\/p>\n

O’s Take Advantage of Struggling Sox<\/h3>\n

The Baltimore Orioles turned a few heads this weekend, taking two of three from a Red Sox team that can’t seem to win a series. Starter Jordan Lyles picked up the victory while tossing six innings while allowing only one earned run on seven hits and three walks while striking out six.<\/p>\n

Rougned Odor went 2 for 5 with a homerun, making him the offensive standout. Baltimore has not been great on offense to start the season as they rank 26th with a .621 OPS and 23rd with a .219 batting average.<\/p>\n

Starting pitcher Tyler Wells will be looking for his first win of the season. In four starts Wells is 0-2 with a 5.54 ERA and 1.38 WHIP. Wells faced the New York Yankees last time out and threw five innings while allowing two runs on three hits and no walks.<\/p>\n

Twins Top Team In The Central<\/h3>\n

The Minnesota Twins have impressed so far this season, their 13-9 record has earned them first place in the American League Central.<\/p>\n

They proved that they have what it takes to compete with a quality opponent as they took two of three games from the Tampa Bay Rays while outscoring them 19-10 in the process. The young right-hander Josh Winder hurled six shutout innings while striking out seven and allowing only two hits and a walk.<\/p>\n

Byron Buxton blasted his 7th homerun, going 2 for 5 with two runs scored. The Twins have relied on strong pitching but their bats have heated up as well and they now rank 15th overall in OPS.<\/p>\n

Newly acquired starter Chris Paddack will also be looking to get his first win of the season. He is currently 0-2 with a 3.68 ERA and 1.16 WHIP.<\/p>\n

Orioles vs Twins Prediction<\/h2>\n

The money line is set at -150 for the Minnesota Twins and +130 for the Baltimore Orioles with a total of 7.5. The Orioles pitching has been outstanding at home so far this season, they have the lowest home ERA in the majors with a miniscule 2.14.<\/p>\n

Baltimore is also the best under team in baseball thus far with a 15-6-1 record, cashing the under 71% of the time. The Twins also lean towards unders with a 12-9-1 record. The under is also 6-1 in the Orioles last 7 games at home against right-handed pitching.<\/p>\n

They moved the left field wall back 30 feet at Camden Yards and unders have been the story of this young MLB campaign.<\/p>\n

Prediction: Under 7.5 Total Runs Scored<\/strong><\/p>\n
