MLB Free Pick: Take Baltimore. According to latest MLB trends, the Orioles are 55-25 in their last 80 games against the Royals, while Kansas City is just 1-4 in Hochevar’s last five starts against Baltimore. The Royals are also 0-4 in Hochevar’s last four Wednesday starts and 10-22 in their last 32 games versus a team with a losing record. Don’t get caught up in Guthrie’s win-loss record. He’s pitched well of late and if he continues that trend, the O’s should pick up back-to-back wins in Kansas City tonight.
