Nothing like the Blue Jays offense to fix Baltimore's pitching woes, having given up 5+ runs now in 21 of 22 games. But fear not, the trio of SP's should look something like prime Koufax, Pedro, and Halladay against us.

Tuesday, June 27th - 7:07PM start
Kevin Gausman (3-7, 6.47 ERA) vs. Joe Biagini (2-6, 4.45 ERA)

Wednesday, June 28th - 7:07PM start
Wade Miley (3-5, 4.48 ERA) vs. Marcus Stroman (7-4, 3.69 ERA)

Thursday, June 29th - 7:07PM start
Ubaldo Jimenez (2-3, 7.26 ERA) vs. J.A. Happ (2-4, 3.83 ERA)

A sweep. Anything less and it's a disappointment for me.

We need to take advantage here. I also would expect we sweep them because of their poor pitching and we are at home. Orioles cant outscore every team they face.

Hopefully our offense doesn't completely crap it self

I can guarantee we don't score more than 10 runs in total this series.

We'll win games one and two, and lose the third. It is ordained.

It would be fitting for our offense to make their **** pitching seem good.

All favourable matchups. A sweep here brings us to .500. Time to deliver some payback on the Orioles.

I'll actually be in Baltimore on June 29. Will be walking into Pickles Pub in my Jays jersey. Hope I get back alive.

This stretch against the Orioles and Yankees, Redsox are key. Both teams (Orioles and Yankees) are slumping I think this stretch would determine what Shatkins will do with this team

Grilli is DFA'd, and Smith Jr has been sent back to BUF. Smith is up and Carrera has finished his rehab and has been reinstated to the active roster.

Some of our **** Smiths need to change their names. Smith is down, Smith is up, Smith is not yet off the DL...

Bob McCowan said the Jays are trying to sign Michael Saunders to a minor league deal for Buffalo. Not sure what insider information he has.

With Carrera back there's really no room; we don't need two left-handed hitting left fielders. And his numbers weren't actually great, beyond the fact that he was hitting singles at an impossibly unsustainable rate.

.588 BABIP, 3.4BB% & 34.5K% doesn't play? You pessimist.
