Baltimore hopes a new manager will change its fortunes although it didn't happen on Saturday as the Orioles lost 10-6. They'll try again today with Zach Eflin on the mound and they won his last start 7-4 over the Angels last Sunday after he came off the injured list. Eflin has a 3.13 ERA and a 0.96 WHIP in four appearances this season. He faced Washington twice on 2024 and did not give up a run in 12 innings pitched. The Nationals have lost all three of Michael Soroka's starts in 2025 and he has allowed 10 runs on 14 hits in 14 innings. The Nationals have lost eight of 11 and they are allowing 5.36 runs per game this season. Washington has the second-worst bullpen in the majors with a 6.64 ERA and a 1.69 WHIP. Take the Orioles.
