The Orioles dropped a routine flyball with 2 outs in the 9th in the 2nd game that would have ended it.

Right! And it's been all downhill since.
I see we are only three games off our pythag record, so maybe it could be worse. Baseball will drive you crazy...
At least Dermody is gone as far as needing a spot starter (which would be Thursday getaway at MIN). Can Bryan Mata seriously not make that start?
Just told a Yankees fan family of five that it was postponed . They were so happy someone told them and the grandfather shook, rather firmly, my hand. Old school New Yorkers.
Lol at Seabold giving up 9 ER in 3 innings at Atlanta. And his fastball is back to 92-93mph today.
Yes
A luxury hotel was a block away so used some of the best semi-public bathrooms in the city too.
What I saw is that it would be a day/night double header tomorrow with NESN getting the day game and the horrid four letter getting the night game.
It rained really heavily for the last hour. It's lighter now, but still not particularly nice out.
Since about 8 AM it seemed like two bouts of steady rain (not deluge level) came through for about an hour each with general drippiness otherwise, but YMMV.

It's your call. Here are the responses when this was asked a couple of weeks ago.
Thanks.
I'll let ride. Updated the title .
As for the relevant comedy:

Clarke Schmidt vs. undecided for the Red Sox. Well, who are the possibilities to start game 1 for the Red Sox, Alex?
I'm confused about why they have to change our pitching, whereas the NYY pitching stays the same. Wasn't Bello scheduled for last night and Paxton for tonight? Why can't Bello pitch this afternoon and Paxton tonight? What problem does that present?????????????????????????
Whenever you get the chance to use Kaleb Ort against the Yankees, you can't pass that up.
It's clever to use him in the first inning, as that gives you more time to catch up.

Not only that but I can't find any national TV coverage for the early game. Was Fox last night, but I don't see Fox, FS1, FS2, MLBN or anybody else today. Schmidt vs. Ort, maybe who cares. Hate watching Severino though (night game).
In order to save bandwidth.

Comedy = tragedy + time.
I'm going to the night game. That should be enough time.
This is the most legitimate criticism. A bullpen game was in the cards as soon as the decision to have Paxton start Monday was made. But a bullpen game basically guarantees that Bello has to give them innings tonight, regardless.
Are you accusing me of posting substance? You know what happens to people when they do that? I'd have you ask Larry33, but....
Ort allowing just 3 runs over 2 innings would seem to be Cora's hope to set up both games. Good luck!
Maybe a first inning effort to have Murphy avoid the yips or something? Force the NYYs to choose between making their lineup for a RHP for 6 or so outs or a LHP for more, later? Then back to Winckowski if needed?
It's not the craziest idea I've heard.
But then again, I haven't seen the comparison of Ort v. Anybody Else With a Pulse vs. the Yank's likely line-up. So perhaps it is crazy. We will see.
