#925 ASA PLAY ON Baltimore Orioles -130 over Miami Marlins, Wednesday at 6:40 PM ET - The Orioles lost yesterday here at Miami and it was unusual in that they failed to do damage against an opponents bullpen. We doubt that will be repeated here. Miami is 21-33 at home this season which is one of the worst home records in the league! The Orioles are 30-18 on the road this season and also the Marlins are 23-43 against teams that have a record above .500 on the season. Baltimore is one of the strongest teams in the majors and should bounce back here. We have no hesitation in fading the Marlins off a win. Since a 3-game winning streak back in mid-June, the Marlins have won B2B games only twice (including first game before A/S break and first game after A/S break). In fact, the Marlins have gone 2-8 the last 10 times they have entered a game off a win! We get line value here because the Orioles have a rookie hurler going in this one. Chayce McDermott has a 3.96 ERA at the AAA level this season and he is facing a Marlins team that has a .357 slugging percentage which is dead last in the National League. By the way, the Orioles slugging percentage is .452 which is the #1 out of all 30 MLB teams! The Orioles should get to Edward Cabrera here. He is 1-3 with a 7.36 ERA this season. He has a WHIP of 1.80 since he returned from injury this month and he continues to struggle here against a tough Orioles lineup. The road team is the bet in this one. Lay it!
