You never expect to sweep a major league team. All of these players—even those on a crummy team—are just too good. But the Orioles do need to make the most out of a weak spot in their schedule. These Rockies just got swept by the Rays and now have a 6-15 record this month, securing their place as the worst team in the National League and third-worst overall.
The O’s will be hoping Cole Irvin can give them another solid start, perhaps with a bit more length this time. He has thrown 10 total innings in his two most recent outings and allowed one total run.
