Baltimore maintains a high-level play with speed, defense, and pop, and is close to the top of the AL standings due to this. Entering this series, the Orioles have won four of their past five games: their four-game winning streak and the opportunity to defeat the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday.
Monday night when playing against the Angels, Baltimore’s pitching conceded 17 hits and nine runs to Los Angeles and dropped their second straight game in a 9-5 loss.
The Orioles will hand the ball to Kremet in game two of the series. He is 4-1 in eight starts this season with an ERA of 4.97. Kremer allowed 48 hits in 41.2 innings so far this season. At home he is 2-0 with a 5.14 ERA in four starts, allowing 21 hits in 21 innings pitched in home starts.
Dean has only a 6.0 K/9 rate at home this season. His hard-hit percentage is up to 47.7% this season after he reduced that number to a career-low 39.3% last season.

Los Angeles has a big question mark on it, as their chances of making it to the top of the standings grow slimmer, especially with two of the three best baseball players on their roster. When you consider that Shohei Ohtani will become a free agent at the end of this season, that chance becomes non-existent.
The Angels enter the series with four out of five games, plus two out of three to the Cleveland Guardians during the weekend. On Monday, in game one of this series, Ohtani pulled out all the stops; seven innings with five strikeouts, also going for 4-for-5 from the plate a double short of the cycle in a 9-5 Angels’ win.
Silseth will pitch for the Angels, making a spot start for them. This will be his first season start and fifth appearance overall. He has thrown 8.1 innings in his first four appearances, allowing five hits and three runs.
He has struck out three and walked three in that time. Silseth’s longest outing of the year was in his last appearance, going 3.1 innings and permitting five hits and six runs, three of which were earned. Chase made seven starts last season, going 1-3 with a 6.59 ERA.
MatchPlug Prediction
The Baltimore Orioles has one of the American League’s best home records and has designed their style to fit the large dimensions of Camden Yards. They are 14th in home runs in baseball but are third in walks and third in stolen bases. Due to this, they are a respectable eight in runs scored.
Los Angeles on the other hand is just 26th in caught stealing and 21st in walks as a pitching staff.
This game will be one for the bullpens, including Kremer averaging just over five innings per start at home this season and Silseth will make his first start of the season for the Angels and to get past the fourth inning.
Keeping this in mind, the advantage in the bullpen will go to the Baltimore Orioles with the 2nd-best bullpen ERA in baseball.
Final Prediction: Baltimore Orioles Moneyline.
