Houston Astros at Baltimore Orioles Preview + Free Pick

[Shame About Ray]

BetUS online baseball betting fans looking to make some MLB bankroll-increasing wagers as the 2008 regular season moves further toward its mid-season point, may want to take a long, hard look at the Houston Astros, (33-37, 38-32 RL) – and wager against them when the opportunity presents itself as the ballclub is in the midst of some immense struggles, having dropped five straight games in the BetUS Sportsbook, including a three-game sweep at the hands of the New York Mets that ended with Sunday’s 13-0 shellacking, while also losing 14 of their last 17 games overall.

After a day off on Monday, the Astros will take their act on the road for an interleague sports betting matchup with the surprising Baltimore Orioles, (34-34, 37-31 RL), winners of two of their last three contests, though they lost their last outing, 5-4 to the Pittsburgh Pirates in extra innings.
