The Orioles and Astros are finally getting their showdown on, scheduled for 4:10 PM ET on July 18. I guess it's a good thing they're playing, because otherwise, we'd all have to endure another excruciating 24 hours of speculation about which team might somehow magically turn into a .500 club. What's missing from the equation? Oh, just the tiny details like probable pitchers, venue, and location. But hey, who needs those when you've got two teams with presumably 26 players each?
The good news is that neither team seems to be on the brink of collapse, with no injury reports to speak of. That's about as rosy as it gets in mid-July. While we wait for more intel on this matchup, you can head to StreakChat to make your pick or join the discussion. Can the Orioles pull off a win, or will the Astros ride their (presumably) decent pitching to a victory? Make your call.
