Many exciting MLB games are scheduled on Tuesday, with matchups including the Texas Rangers vs. the Baltimore Orioles and the Washington Nationals vs. the San Diego Padres. Baseball fans can look forward to another full day of baseball action.

Here are the predictions and best picks to help you.

Rangers vs Orioles

•

Score Prediction: Orioles 5, Rangers 3

Picks: Orioles –1.5 (+145)

Best Bet: Under 10 runs (–110)

The Rangers will put Jacob Latz on the mound against the Orioles’ batting lineup which scored six runs in the series opener. The lefty will have a tough time passing through the Orioles’ lineup, which includes the likes of Jordan Westburg, Jackson Holliday and Gunnar Henderson.

Moreover, with veteran Charlie Morton on the mound, the Orioles are the team to bet on.

Nationals vs Padres

Score Prediction: Padres 6, Nationals 2

Picks: Under 8.5 runs

Best Bet: Padres ML (–165)

The Padres have a better starting pitcher and a better team for Tuesday’s game against the Nationals, who defeated the home team 10-6 at Petco Park on Monday. The Padres will be eyeing revenge and while the offense hasn’t been at their best, their pitching is due for a good game.

The Nationals should struggle at the plate Tuesday night facing righty Ryan Bergert on the mound.

Score Prediction: Mets 6, Braves 4

Picks: Over 9 runs

Best Bet: Mets win on moneyline

Frankie Montas will be returning for the Mets after the 60-day injured list. While he’s not expected to go deep but his presence will be effective against the Braves. Spencer Strider for the Braves may run into trouble against Juan Soto, who is in good touch coming off a two-run home run night.

Betting on the Mets to get a close win is the way to go.

Cubs vs. Cardinals

Score Prediction: Cubs 5, Cardinals 4

Picks: Under 9 runs

Best Bet: Kyle Tucker to hit a home run

Both teams have good pitchers on the mound to start this exciting game. Michael McGreevy (1-1, 2-70 ERA) is an effective pitcher but will the righty be able to hold his own against left-handed hitter Kyle Tucker remains to be seen. On the other hand, Jameson Taillon gave up five runs in his last start, and he’ll be motivated to do well here.

This game can go either way, but for now, we cheer the Cubs.

Red Sox vs. Angels

Score Prediction: Red Sox 6, Angels 5

Picks: Boston wins (-190)

Best Bet: Tyler Anderson Over 5.5 Ks (Angels)

There will be lots of swings, hits and misses when the Angels take on the Red Sox. With two solid aces in Garrett Crochet and Tyler Anderson on the mound, it is expected to be a tight contest. Anderson will face the likes of Alex Bregman and Jarren Duran, on the other hand, Crochet will take on Mike Trout & Co.

Expect the Red Sox to win this game.

Krutik Jain is a journalist who has been reporting on baseball at Sportskeeda since 2022. It was in 2018 when the baseball bug bit Krutik, and already a cricket fan, he credits baseball’s rules and Clayton Kershaw’s pitching to have hooked him to the game.

A Kershaw and Mookie Betts fan, Krutik rates his favorite team LA Dodgers triumphing over Tampa Bay Rays in the 2020 World Series as his best baseball moment so far. His answer to the perennial “one player from the past you could meet” question is Jackie Robinson. Despite never having seen him play, Robinson’s impact, legacy and trail-blazing journey have left an indelible impact on Krutik.

A rigorous fact-checker, Krutik likes reporting on the technical aspects of the game as well as off-field elements. When not watching baseball, Krutik is busy playing cricket, staying up to date with the happenings around the world and hiking.
