The Halos have been playing poorly for the last 15 days. They are sixth-worst in ERA, which means they have given up a lot of runs. Also, they are tied for fifth-worst in baseball when it comes to saving defensive runs.

Shohei Ohtani (8-1; 2.79 ERA) will pitch against the Orioles on Wednesday. This is his fifth game in a row without giving up any runs. He has given up 18 hits and three walks over that time, but not many earned runs so far (5).

Notes On The Baltimore Orioles

The Baltimore Orioles had a horrible losing streak. They lost 18 games in a row. In that time, they only won one game and they gave up 7 or more runs 12 times.

Baltimore has the highest ERA in major league baseball, 5.79 so far this season. In the last few weeks, the Orioles have had a 7.28 ERA and 1.66 WHIP. They also have a bad batting average against at .298 and their bullpen’s ERA is 5.75 over the last ten days of play.

The Orioles have not told who will pitch Wednesday against the Angels. Jorge Lopez pitched last Sunday for one inning to relieve after 25 consecutive starts in 2021. He has a poor ERA and WHIP, but the Orioles don’t have many options in their bullpen.

Online Betting Pick & Prediction: Over

The Orioles will have a hard day at the office. They will face off against a player who has been very good lately. The Orioles have not performed well in games against right-handed pitchers this season, so the Angels should come out on top.

The Angels need Shohei to do something in the game. The offense of the Angels is not doing well. But they will get it going with a good matchup against bad pitching.

The teams have not been able to hit the ball well of late. The Angels have an OPS of .620 over the last 15 days and the Orioles have an OPS of .647 during that same time period. They are both bad at defense, so we are probably not going to see a high-scoring game because of this.

Ohtani is good for the O’s. He has a 1.58 ERA and .183 batting average against him in his last six starts and 40 innings of work. But you never know when the Orioles bullpen will give up a lot of runs.
