Bettors Slamming Orioles Bets Following Their Unexpected Winning Streak

In a shocking turn of events, the Baltimore Orioles are the hottest team in baseball heading into the All-Star Break.

Despite being in the thick of their rebuild, the O’s have been showing major signs of light at the end of the tunnel. And now, they’re in the midst of an MLB-best eight game winning streak.

To think of the Orioles as legitimate World Series contenders is probably a bit premature. But given what the Baltimore fans have been through in recent years, who are we to try to temper their excitement?

After their eight game stretch, the O’s currently sit at 43-44 on the season, and could creep into the Wild Card discussion if they’re able to turn their winning streak into a long stretch of competitive play.

This week, the Orioles will travel to Wrigley Field to take on the lowly Cubs, which could help bolster their rise up the standings prior to next week’s All-Star Break.

Are the tides starting to turn in Baltimore?
