The Athletics vs Baltimore Orioles Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 08/08/25

The Athletics head to Baltimore to open a 3-game series at Camden Yards. While both teams’ aren’t officially eliminated from the playoffs, they have a steep mountain to climb if they want to make it — but that hasn’t slowed down either team at the plate. Over the last 2 weeks, both teams have been among the hottest hitting in baseball. The A’s are averaging 6 runs per game over their last 13, while the Orioles are averaging 6.1 over their last 14. 

When it comes to pitching, the Athletics hold a league-best 2.79 ERA over the last 2 weeks; the Orioles sit at 3.98. Taking the mound for the Athletics will be right-hander J.T. Ginn, entering with a 2-3 record and a 4.28 ERA. For the Orioles, Tomoyuki Sugano will get the nod; he is 8-5 with a 4.42 ERA. While both offenses have been clicking, neither starter has been particularly dominant this season. The Athletics’ recent pitching success gives them a slight advantage — and with Sugano carrying a 5.68 ERA over his last 5 starts, the A’s should be in a good position to jump to an early lead.
