Baltimore Orioles
(-110/-110)+125
As the MLB season draws closer to its conclusion, the Baltimore Orioles and Los Angeles Dodgers are set to clash on September 6, 2025, at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. The Orioles (65-76)are having a below-average season, while the Dodgers (78-63) are in better form and pushing toward a postseason berth. In their previous matchup, the Dodgers emerged victorious, continuing their strong play.
The projected starters offer a stark contrast in performance. Trevor Rogers, the Orioles’ left-handed pitcher, has been statistically solid, boasting an 8-2 record and a remarkable 1.39 ERA this year. However, advanced metrics suggest he may have been a bit lucky, as indicated by his 3.49 xFIP, which is 2.10 points higher than his ERA. Rogers projects to pitch around 5.0 innings today but may struggle, with projections estimating he’ll allow approximately 2.8 earned runs, 5.2 hits, and 1.8 walks.
On the other hand, Yoshinobu Yamamoto of the Dodgers is having an elite season. Ranked 4th among MLB pitchers, he holds an 11-8 record and a stellar 2.82 ERA. Projections indicate he will log about 5.8 innings, yielding just 2.1 earned runs while striking out 6.9 batters. Although he may allow more hits than desired, his capability to limit runs bodes well for the Dodgers this matchup.
Offensively, the Orioles sit 16th overall, with a batting average ranked 21st, while the Dodgers boast the 3rd best offense, highlighted by their 2nd place ranking in home runs. Given these offensive disparities, the projections favor the Dodgers to maintain their winning momentum in this series.
