Orioles vs Rays

Prediction: Rays 5, Orioles 3

Best Bet: Under 9 runs

The Rays have turned things around after a subpar 2024 MLB season and have clearly been the better team this season, compared to divisional rivals Baltimore Orioles.

Tampa Bay took the opener on Monday, 7-1. They have a healthy .279 team batting average in the last 10 games and have a durable arm in Zack Littell (6-6, 3.84 ERA) starting the game.

Red Sox vs Mariners

Prediction: Mariners 5, Red Sox

Best Bet: Mariners ML (-181)

Despite the field drama, there has been no stopping Alex Cora's team. The Red Sox will look to make it seven MLB wins in a row and get their 10th win in 12 games on the road in Seattle.

Their win streak makes the odds favorable for the Mariners to break. They will once again be dependant on Cal Raleigh, who's slugging at .606 on the season, with 26 home runs.

Padres vs Dodgers

Prediction: Dogders 5, Padres 4

Best Bet: Dodgers ML (-216)

With momentum on their side after Shohei Ohtani's mound debut for the Dodgers, Los Angeles will hope to take their fourth win in five games.

They have six wins in their last eight MLB games. Their offense, who had an all-round team effort inthe series opener, will look to inflict similar damage to Randy Vasquez.
