"THE COMEBACK KIDS DO IT AGAIN!!" - Orioles
Baltimore will hand the ball to Tyler Wells for Wednesday's contest. Wells is 7-6 with a 3.69 ERA. He'll be pitching against a lineup that is ranked #22 in runs per game. In his last start, Wells went five innings, giving up five hits and five earned runs versus the New York Yankees.
The right-hander's recent performances have been worrisome, surrendering 11 earned runs in his past 14 2/3 innings. The Orioles' righty has to find his stuff early if he wants to avoid another poor outing.
"...Drew Rasmussen talks about his performance, the Rays offense and more." - Bally Sports Sun
Drew Rasmussen, who is 6-3 with a 3.13 ERA, will be taking the mound Wednesday for Tampa Bay. He has been solid this year, and he is holding a 2.29 ERA in his past four outings. The Orioles have momentum on their side, but Rasmussen is definitely capable of shutting down their lineup.

Ji-Man Choi will be squaring off with righty Tyler Wells on Wednesday. Choi has struggled over the last several weeks, and the vast majority of his hits come against righties.

Pick: Ji-Man Choi Under 0.5 Runs Scored (-149)
Baltimore Orioles vs. Tampa Bay Rays Betting Prediction
The Rays are on a four-game skid that they'll look to end on Wednesday in Baltimore. The Orioles have been the feel-good story of the year in baseball, so it's difficult to pick against them. Even though Tampa Bay has the pitching edge, look for the O's to lead or be tied after five.
Prediction: Orioles First 5 Innings +0.5 (-115) & First 5 Innings Total Over 3.5 Runs (-135)
