Baltimore Orioles vs Pittsburgh Pirates Prediction & Picks - MLB
by Dan Angell in MLB Picks
The Pittsburgh Pirates (6-1 SU, 6-1 ATS) look to prove that they're for real as they host the Baltimore Orioles (4-2 SU, 3-3 ATS). Few people are taking Pittsburgh seriously at the moment because of the Pirates' long history of struggles over the past three decades. The Pirates have also played a fairly weak schedule in opening with the Marlins and the Nationals.
Baltimore represents a big step up. The Orioles cruised to the AL East title last season and have all the pieces in place to make another run at the American League pennant and the World Series. How close they come depends on whether Grayson Rodriguez can become an effective No. 2 pitcher this season. Rodriguez showed flashes of brilliance in giving up three runs or less over his final 12 regular-season starts last year. However, he got shelled in the playoffs by Texas, showing he still has some growth to go.

Our Baltimore Orioles vs Pittsburgh Pirates Prediction
If there are runs to be had, they're likely to come early in the contest. Both Baltimore and Pittsburgh have gotten excellent work from their bullpens, as both have a bullpen ERA of under 3. The starters, however, have been shaky and the wind is going to be heading out to right-center in this game.
Jared Jones didn't look anywhere near as sharp as Rodriguez in his first start, and the Pirates like playing to the over anyway. Pittsburgh is likely to give up runs to this Baltimore offense with the wind working against its pitchers. Given that the Orioles haven't exactly kept runs off the board, this game seems ripe for some early offense. Our prediction for Baltimore vs. Pittsburgh is Over 4 Runs First Five Innings.
