Get ready for some of my favorite MLB predictions for today, April 19! After a light schedule with yesterday's MLB games, we are back to a full slate this Friday. This means plenty of betting opportunities! 

In today's article, I am highlighting 2 games at FanDuel: Athletics vs. Guardians and Orioles vs. Royals. Good luck and let's dive into my expert MLB predictions for today!

 

 

 

Athletics vs. Guardians Prediction: Friday, April 19

Let's start today's MLB predictions by targeting the Oakland Athletics. If they're going to field a team of minor leaguers, I'm going to take advantage of that. The Guardians have been scoring runs consistently, so it's a safe bet to choose them.

In their last 5 games, Cleveland has scored 5 or more runs in 4 of them. Now they're playing at home against the worst team in the American League! It's no surprise that I'm betting on the Guardians to win and expecting them to score a good number of runs.

Joe Boyle will be starting for Oakland, but his previous decent starts were against weak teams like the Tigers and the Nationals. He relies on strikeouts, but Cleveland is one of the teams with the fewest strikeouts per game. 

 

 

 

Orioles vs. Royals Prediction: Friday, April 19

Tonight's game features two exciting MLB teams, the Royals and the Orioles. The Royals have been scoring an average of 6.1 runs per game at home, ranking 3rd in the league. 

On the other hand, the Orioles are averaging 5.67 runs per game, leading to a record of 11-5-2 on the season for going over the total. With the starting pitchers' recent performances, I believe the over on the game total of 9 is a solid bet.
