Nationals vs. Orioles Odds & Betting Predictions - May 16, 2025

Both lineups frozen. Orioles avg just 3.71 runs/game, ranked 25th. Shut out 6x this season, scored in only 2 innings last series. Nationals not much better—4.07 runs/game (23rd), failed to top 2 runs in 5 of last 7. Combined team OPS barely cracks .685. Gore is a strikeout machine – 35.2 K%, 7 straight starts w/ 6+ Ks. Held BAL to 2 ER over 6 IP last time. xwOBA .303 = legit stuff. Povich’s lone win? 6.2 IP, 1 ER vs WAS on Apr 24. Both teams struggling w/ timing + RISP = recipe for zeros on the board. Unders cash in this rivalry – 34-16-1 last 51 meetings. Nationals 12-4 to the Under in last 16 interleague. April series had 2 games finish 2-1 and 4-3. Both skippers leaning conservative w/ lineups flailing. Expect a grind-it-out, pitcher-dominated pace.

Generating at least a 47% whiff rate with four of his five pitches, according to Baseball Savant. Facing an Orioles lineup with a good number of lefties that has struggled to hit lefties so far in 2025. Would just recommend checking the forecast before placing a bet to ensure the odds of an in-game delay haven't increased from where they are as of now.

3-way ML at FD. I like the 2-way (-105 CZ) as well for less risk

Bet to -114
