We face Baltimore's Andrew Cashner who sported a sparkling 4-15 record and 5.29 ERA last year. Beautiful 1.582 WHIP. Opposing hitters collectively had a .856 OPS against him. Yankees batters historically against him:

Stanton and Judge a collective 4 for 30...Add in Tulo and Sanchez and it's 7 for 53...somebody's due to rip him a new one... |

I really wish Bird's name was Null so we could have Null and Voit at first base. Bud Abbott and Lou Costello would probably come back to life...Who's on foist? Null and Voit, ask me anoder question...

According to ZiPS, the Orioles have one projected above-average hitter. That’s Trey Mancini with a 105 OPS+. -from RAB
Just look at this whack ass lineup they're putting out there:
1. Cedric Mullins (S) CF
2. Dwight Smith Jr. (L) LF
3. Jonathan Villar (S) 2B
4. Trey Mancini (R) DH
5. Rio Ruiz (L) 3B
6. Joey Rickard (R) RF
7. Chris Davis (L) 1B
8. Jesus Sucre (R) C
9. Richie Martin (R) SS
I know I'm jinxing the Yankees by making fun of how bad the Orioles are. But I can't help it.
