Understanding Public and Money
Think of 'Public' as the percentage of people betting on each side and 'Money' as how much money is being bet. When there's a big difference between the 'Public' and 'Money' data, it usually means that the more serious bettors (referred to as 'Sharp Money') are favoring a particular side.

The Baltimore Orioles last series against the Tampa Bay Rays they swept them in late May. It was a breakout series at the plate where they scored runs of 6, 9, and 11. Colton Cowser was a big bat in that series as he had a hit in all three games, along with three runs, and two RBI’s. Even hitting towards the bottom of the lineup take Cowser over his combination line.
There seems to be a bit of early confusion over tonight's Orioles starting pitcher, but it should be Chris Bassitt (4-4, 5.27 ERA) off the injured list -- I'll be doing listed pitchers just in case as I wouldn't like this nearly as much if it's not him. But the Rays have been so profitable at the Trop. Amazingly, they just finished a 9-0 West Coast trip. Seems like a semi-bullpen game that will be started by Steven Matz. The O's are seven games under .500 away and were swept three in St. Pete in May.
