Padres vs Orioles Picks and Prediction – 7/27/2024

Beautiful Camden Yards will play host to a Saturday afternoon MLB interleague clash between the San Diego Padres and the Baltimore Orioles. Be ready for the baseball season with all of our MLB predictions. The Padres (56-50) are riding a six-game winning streak and have surged into a tie with Atlanta for the second NL Wild Card spot. Last night, All-Star Jurickson Profar homered twice and drove in four runs to power San Diego to a 6-4 road victory against Baltimore. 

Twenty-nine year old righty Michael King (8-6 3.28 ERA) will head to the hill for the Padres in this contest. In his last start, King (7 IP) allowed one run and fanned six batters during a 2-1 road victory against Cleveland. 

The Baltimore Orioles have dropped six of their last ten games and hold a 1.5 game lead over New York for the top spot in the AL East Division. During Friday’s home loss, Baltimore batters went 1-for-9 with runners in scoring position and left eight men on base. Anthony Santander and Jordan Westburg each went deep for the Orioles (61-42), who fell to 30-23 at home. 

Baltimore manager Brandon Hyde will give the nod to talented right-hander Dean Kremer (4-6 4.43 ERA) on Saturday. Last time out, Kremer gave up three runs across five plus frames during a 3-2 road loss against Texas.
