Akin is putting the changeup in good spots, just not getting guys to chase it. If he can get through 5 here and keep the Jays off the board, I'll be ecstatic. 

We will see if he can show further upside as time goes on, but I'm fully confident he's one of the O's 5 starters to begin '21. 

Another k.

Another K for Akin, back to being aggressive here in the 3rd.

Wonder if Mountcastle got a good jump or if he made up ground, either way great play to catch it.

Nice clean inning.

It looked like he got a jump.  It got out there real quick.

That’s my impression as well. .850 xBA on it.

Nunez called out on the 2-2 hook... that was tough.

Villar to the Blue Jays, Marte to the Marlins

I missed most of the game yesterday. Heard some saying he looked shaky out there. From what I saw earlier in the series I felt like his speed and tracking were fine.

Anytime I see Villars name, I get mad.   Good player that we got nothing for.

Does Villar play SS  for Toronto?

Yeah, he's been good IMO, watched all the games, I didn't see that.

Severino grounds out. 2 down.

His arm isn't the best.  In LF it's probably manageable. 

I still don't think he has a real OF future with the O's.  At-least I hope not.

Does anyone remember who we were supposed to be getting back from the Cubs for Roberts?

Ask davearm.

Sisco looping pop out to end the Orioles 4th.

I don't care that much about the arm in LF. If he can track and have solid range in LF he's more valuable than being a 1b/DH.

3,4,5 up for Toronto.  2nd looks against Akin. 

Akin starting the 4th with 50 pitches thrown.

Matt Murton was one of them.
