6 OUT OF 10 CONSENSUS on the Orioles.

The Pirates were the talk of the town over the first month of the season, but they've since come back down to Earth, having lost ten of their last 11 after yesterday's 6-3 series opening loss here. We say this streak of futility continues in this lop-sided starting pitching mismatch. The Orioles play in the most difficult division in MLB and they've now won three straight. They hand the ball to Tyler Wells, who is 2-1 with a 3.15 ERA. The Pirates counter with the volatile Roansy Contreras, who is 3-3 with a 4.74 ERA. At some point the Pirates will start to offer some value, but at this point we're absolutely expecting their slide back into mediocrity will continue for a while. Lay the price with confidence, the play is BALTIMORE.

Good luck, TIR
