Man that Yankees lineup is brutal. Ours actually looks decent on paper

[Doubleplay21]

I see Merrifield not in again.
He has been ice cold and Biggio taken his place

Gausman should be able to carve up that lineup especially the bottom half

Just cold or also injured I wonder

[G-Snarls]

Regardless Biggio has been excellent and happy to see it.

I recall it was mentioned on one of the recent broadcasts that Merrifield was dealing with a bit of hip tightness. His bat has vanished for the last 6 weeks though so it's no huge loss either way.

Biggio just tied Vlad in WAR - in less than half as many PA's...

He might’ve strained something during that walk-off win on the weekend, the one where he busted his ass down the line.

I don’t think he’s played since

[Masterbather]

Well the Yankees suck, in theory Gausman should do well, but then again we suck against good pitching so King should do well.

Bet the under.

Game might be determined by one big swing from somebody.

[Masterbather]

No Vladdy. Maybe it's a good thing.

Vlady pulled from the line-up, issues with his knee

When you're a fat slob, your knees are obviously going to take a beating. Kirk will be next in a year or two.

[jaysblue]

Gausman hasn't been pitching that well lately, but hope he has a big game tonight and turns it around.

[gruber92]

Baltimore losing in general is not good for us. We don't need Tampa to be within striking distance to the division as it makes their six games against us meaningful. That's spells trouble.
