We're taking the Oakland Athletics on Sunday to win outright on the road against the Baltimore Orioles.

Rapid Breakdown

• The Oakland A's have been a lot more competitive than anticipated across their recent road series', taking two games off the New York Yankees last week, and opening this current series against the Baltimore Orioles with an extra innings victory as well. This is another spot they shouldn't be underestimated in this afternoon either at a big price.
• Athletics starter Paul Blackburn ranks top 20 in the league this season in both ERA and WHIP, and gave up zero runs across his opening three games of the season. Albert Suarez meanwhile, despite starting the year off strong, just doesn't have that same level of consistency in the majors, with his numbers in a previous life in San Francisco being less than stellar.
• Oakland's bullpen has posted significantly better numbers than Baltimore's this season also, both in ERA and WHIP, and has allowed 18% fewer runs on average as well.
