Dozen games left. How many wins do the Orioles need?

[Aristotelian]

I could see DET going 6-1. Indians lost Carrasco. Their rotation is now Kluber and a bunch of guys. Royals did us a huge favor to give us some cushion.

Atlanta actually has been a pest to teams in the 2nd half but I still wouldn't bank on it since it's interleague.

Cleveland has nothing to play for I believe. So Os need 3-3 minimum, probably 4-2 to be safe.

They'll still try for home field.

Teheran is pitching in the Braves series. They have been pesty in the second half and will likely enjoy playing the spoiler. It's also difficult to sweep any major league team. I think the Braves take one.

I would love home field. Toronto is a house of horrors for the Os but I just don't want a repeat of the Red Sox series. Don't get swept!

I have confidence in the Os winning 1 game WC up in Toronto. So not too worried about that, but yeah let's shoot for home field and see what happens!

It looks like we'll miss Happ in TOR. He's scheduled to face the NYYs tomorrow night.

We miss Happ and Estrada. However, it doesn't get any easier.

Aaron Sanchez in Game 1

Francisco Liriano in Game 2 (he's been nails with Russell Martin and a lefty)

Marcus Stroman in Game 3

These are going to be hard fought games if we win any of them...especially the first 2. Toronto has been a house of horrors for the O's.

Me too. But I meant Cleveland will try to play for home field. They won't lay down for the Tigers.

Oh ok. I didn't realize Cleveland still had a chance at home field, haven't kept up with how they are doing.
