Baltimore Orioles VS Minnesota Twins Series Pitching Match-ups:
- Game 1 Starters are Brad Bergesen for the Orioles & Carl Pavano for the Twins.
- Game 2 Starters are Kevin Millwood for the Orioles & Francisco Liriano for the Twins.
- Game 3 Starters are Jeremy Guthrie for the Orioles & Scott Baker for the Twins.
- Game 4 Starters are Brian Matusz for the Orioles & Nick Blackburn for the Twins.
The O's will face four starters who all have winning records. Though only two have lower than a 4.00 era with Liriano posting a 1.50 era with a 4-0 record. The other starter is Carl Pavano who has a 3.73 era and a 3-2 record. Now the O's will be looking for the bats to heat up and produce some runs after a series in which the team only managed to score 7 total runs. If they can win this series they will need timely hitting, production from Luke Scott & Solid starts from Guthrie, Bergesen & Matusz. Two of the three go against starters who have era's above 5.00. My outlook is the O's have another big series from Garrett Atkins in addition to Nolan Reimold as they take the series 3-1. The loss coming in the game when Millwood & Liriano both throw gems.
