How long are we looking at?

I'd guess 830, i think the 730-805 is optimistic

I'm thinking 8:30 too. The grounds crew at Yankee Stadium doesn't exactly have a stellar history of getting the field dried out after it rains.

Checking out the radar I agree with you still 80% of rain at 8pm.

I'd say it should be clear by 8:00PM looking at latest radar over Bronx.

I try to stay in the positivity train before every game regardless of the matchup but I really hate facing Cortes. I hope we get to him early and often. Super annoying that he got this good for the Yankees. 

[Fiver6565]

And yes I know he hasn’t been THAT good this year but he was against us back in April

After that little dance he did in the 5th or 6th inning with a lead earlier this season, I really, really want to shellac Nasty Nestor.

Luckily, start time is perfect for me here in CO

Cortes' ERA is now double what it was when he pitched against the Orioles last time.

Orioles need to take advantage of a pitcher that's been getting beat up, but I don't have a good feeling about this game either. Cortes always seems to own the Orioles.
