After a dream season where the O's went 35-18 in one-run games or games that went into extra innings, I'll take 22 over .500.
Also, I think Bautista missing over an entire year will be impactful.
49ers QB Brock Purdy had UCL repair with InternalBrace. Here’a a summary comparing the two. I’m sure Bautista and his medical team will closely consider the best course for his circumstance.

Astros fell asleep in their last two series against 100 loss teams. I expect them to be locked in for our arrival. I hate the matchup, they have disciplined hitting and Verlander is Verlander.
