Orioles vs White Sox Prediction

The Orioles are coming into this game as an underdog with the current betting odds. They have been playing well in their recent games, they have not been having a great season but they have been much improved from last season and are playing a lot better right now. They have been a team that has made money all season just blindly betting on them and they are going up against a White Sox team that has not been nearly as good as what was expected from them. The White Sox already lost the series opener getting shut out by the Orioles 4-0 and their bullpen has been one of the worst in the MLB this season. Lynn is starting on the mound and he has not started in many games this season but has not pitched well in his few starts. The Orioles have not decided on a pitcher yet but their pitching staff has been great recently and they will be able to score runs on Lynn here with the way their offense has been playing. The best bet here is on the Orioles to win this game.
