I'll make a prediction.The Orioles offense will do absolutely NOTHING for at least 3 innings ...pretty much like almost every game.

Anderson has a 1.42 ERA. Way to go out on a limb, Roy!

[Roy Firestone]

I don't consider the Angels to be an elite team this year...thats why the Orioles will struggle today...

[Malike]

Phew the MASN blue screen is back. I was getting worried.

vs. some very mediocre teams...

[justD]

So be mad, but make them pay.

Hey, I'm at work following on Gameday.   Those of you watching, please keep me up to date on all the cookie-related happenings in Anaheim today!

Was 15-5 with a 2.57 in LAD in '22. He's a capable pitcher.

Yeah, had a huge dropoff last year.    Of course he isn't young, and he'd never had a year like 2022 before.

[Roy Firestone]

no first inning would be complete without a Mountcastle strikeout

[justD]

Good.  Now keep it going.

That's a little harsh, he's been excellent to date this season.

[SteveA]

That's cool, I have that little thing on Gameday that shows the fielders and the orange ball.

Last weekday game I was following at work, Tony and Denise were talking about it, but I didn't have it for some reason.   Now I do.   This is fun.

Correction:  the orange balls are the baserunners.
