  • The Dodgers and Orioles wrap up a three-game series with a matinee on Wednesday, July 19th
  • With nine wins in their last 11 games, the Dodgers are the hottest team in baseball
  • Check out the latest Dodgers vs Orioles odds below, as well as our best bet and predictions

As the summer has gotten hotter, so have the Los Angeles Dodgers (55-39, 26-23 away) who are on the verge of sweeping one of the best teams in baseball when they close out a three game set against the Orioles (57-37, 29-20 home) on Wednesday, July 19th at Camden Yards.

One of the most pleasant surprises of the season, Baltimore has not been swept at home all season. The O’s had won eight straight prior to the Dodgers coming to town and the boys from LA are showing why oddsmakers currently have them as second betting favorites in the World Series odds at +550, with only the Braves garnering shorter odds.

First pitch for the series finale is scheduled for 1:05 pm ET in a game you can see on MASN 2 and Spectrum SportsNet. Below, we dish out the Dodgers vs Orioles odds, while breaking down this matchup and offering our best bet and picks to you.

Dodgers vs Orioles Probable Pitchers

Following a couple of dominant seasons where he was one of the top contenders in the Cy Young odds, Julio Urias has come back down to earth at precisely the wrong time given his impending free agency.

Over the last two campaigns, the southpaw compiled a scintillating 37-10 record with an ERA well below 3.00 while making over 30 starts in back-to-back years. This season, he’s sputtered a bit, with a 7-5 mark and 4.35 ERA through the first half.

For LA fans, the good news is that he’s been showing his old form lately, allowing just two earned and four hits total, while working a combined 12 innings in his last two outings. However, he’s been terrible during day games and on the road when you look at his season splits, sporting an ERA well over 5.00 in both categories.

Urias vs Kremer Stats

Julio Urias
VS
Dean Kremer
7-5 Record 10-4
4.35 ERA 4.59
1.11 WHIP 1.33
.239 OBA .271
4.7 SO/W Ratio 3.7

It seems every time Dean Kremer takes to the hill, manager Brandon Hyde puts together one of those MLB lineups that delivers a ton of run support.

The Orioles have scored at least five runs in five of his last six appearances, helping the 27-year old push his record to 10-4, one win shy of tying the league leaders. This despite a pedestrian 4.59 ERA and 1.33 WHIP on the season.

In only two starts this month, the righty has acquitted himself quite well, allowing just two earned runs total while punching out 18 batters over 13 innings of work. Opponents have hit just .138 against Kremer in July, well below the .271 batting average he’s allowed throughout the season.

Dodgers Getting Hot

Although the Orioles have a better record than the Dodgers, they don’t have the experience playing important games late in the season that the squad from Southern California does. Just beginning to flex their muscles, LA are heavy -230 chalk in the division odds even though things are tight in the NL West.

Spearheading the charge is leadoff man Mookie Betts, who is hitting over .350 this month with five dingers in 13 games, emerging as the strongest challenger to Ronald Acuna Jr. in the NL MYP odds.

Dodgers vs Orioles Predictions

It looks like LA is poised to bring the brooms out, but the best bet in the MLB odds for this one is to pick the over. Prior to Tuesday’s loss, Baltimore had averaged over six runs per contest in their last nine games while the Dodgers have scored over six runs per in their last 11.

Baltimore has hit the over in 57.8% of their games this season, while Los Angeles has exceeded the run total 60% of the time. No team in baseball has provided a better return on investment when betting the over than the dodgers this year, so our prediction is that scoring reigns supreme in the series finale on Wednesday afternoon.

Pick: Over 9.5 Runs (+100)
