Free MLB Pick

The Orioles enter this match with four victories in their last five games, thanks to their potent offense. They’ve amassed 35 runs during this period, averaging seven runs per game and consistently scoring at least four runs in each contest. Baltimore’s starting pitcher, Kyle Gibson, has been on point, securing victories in all three starts and demonstrating impressive form in his last two appearances, conceding only three earned runs over 13.1 innings pitched.
On the other side, the White Sox will rely on Michael Kopech as their starting pitcher. He has bounced back with a strong performance in his most recent outing, tossing six innings and giving up just one run on two hits. Additionally, Kopech has a favorable history against the Orioles, allowing only three hits in 27 at-bats. While the starting pitching matchup might be evenly matched, the offensive prowess of both teams is not.
The White Sox have struggled lately, winning only one of their last five games. Though their pitching has been reliable, conceding just 17 runs across these matches, their offense has faltered, scoring a meager 11 runs in total. Therefore, it’s recommended to back the Orioles at -113 odds.
