00:00The Orioles take on the Blue Jays, usually runs scored in these games, maybe some overs coming here.
00:05Let's take a look at the matchup Saturday, Dean Kramer against Max Scherzer,
00:10and then Sunday, the debut of Tomoyuki Sugano against Chris Bassett.
00:15Bassett we know, Sugano we don't.
00:17The other thing, George, that's really, you know, I want to keep an eye on here,
00:21is it feels like they're rushing Max Scherzer a little bit, doesn't it?
00:25It feels like with all the issues that he had in the spring, that for, I mean, maybe it's him.
00:30I mean, look, at this stage, let's be clear, Max Scherzer Hall of Famer, okay?
00:34He can call some shots.
00:36It feels like Scherzer may be calling the shots here a little bit,
00:39because he had like all these different finger issues, I think, going into the season.
00:42So I don't know.
00:44Is this a sixth inning start for Scherzer?
00:46Is this a two batter start for Scherzer?
00:49I don't know what the outcome is going to be of this.
00:53By the way, I agree with everything you said.
00:55You're not starting Scherzer in this game, all right?
00:57You're just not, because six innings would be a shock.
01:00I think it would be somewhere in between.
01:02It's the thumb.
01:03I believe the thumb is having trouble putting pressure on the thumb on the baseball there.
01:06So I don't know what you're going to get.
01:08His last spring training start was solid here.
01:10So maybe he's passed it.
01:11Maybe he's not.
01:12But once again, you're in a band box against a good lineup here.
01:15No thank you.
01:16I'll pass.
01:17I'm curious tomorrow.
01:18We're going to get a Sugano, see what he's going to look at here in his first half of Baltimore.
01:22They need him to be at least a serviceable starter, if not even a baller.
01:26Better than that to really survive this season.
01:28So a curious weekend in Toronto, absolutely.
01:30Scherzer for one, Sugano for two.
