Looking at the box score on Gameday, I see:

• JUST ONE guy in the Yankee lineup with an OPS over .800
• SIX guys in the Oriole lineup with OPS over .800
• THREE guys in the Yankee lineup with an OPS under .600
• JUST ONE guy in the Orioles lineup with an OPS under .600

I thought we were supposed to fear this awesome Yankee lineup????

There IS a pitching staff in town that should be quivering in fear, but they are in the 3rd base dugout and the upper level bullpen.

Not afraid of Yankees lineup other than Soto and Judge.  Soto just don't walk him.  Judge don't give him any thing he can drive.  Just saw that Judge has already his 39HR off O's.

Let’s get to their bullpen early. Already ratcheting up Schmidt’s pitch count 

They should be fine, they had such big leads against MIL they were using position players in the late innings.

I haven't followed them - is their bullpen any good?

[Roy Firestone]

I continue to be concerned about Santander...hes simply not driving the ball..but I'll take 1-0 lead...to start...

GRod got the yips. Nerves abound.

Santander is cold until he's not. I'm not nearly worried about him.

The human element!!!!1111

I LOVE the human element, as long as that human element comes from the humans playing the game.  I want the pitcher to be rewarded with what they actually throw, a ball or a strike.  I want the hitter rewarded by having a good eye about said ball or strike.  I do NOT care about the human element coming from a 3rd party and then pretending we just have to live with their mistakes.  We have the technology...make it happen.

Same. Human element my butt. Get the calls right. 

The human element I care about are the players.  Let them dictate the game!

Man that Yankee lineup is ferocious...

[dystopia]

Mullins really had an atrocious arm. 

[NashLumber]

Chester is tuned in. He mentioned Gunnar is on pace for 60 HR as a SS. He tends to underestimate things, like when it's time for dinner.

Why is Ced always the one throwing in these 50/50 balls when the other OF have better arms?

[Roy Firestone]

he gets behind a lot so far...and thats a bad recipe..
