An exhausted Orioles team is off to Minnesota, and there’s a few nice things about that.
- New opponents! The Orioles haven’t seen the Twins in over two years. And they don’t have to keep facing the AL East, with its familiar cast of punishing offenses.
- The Orioles have been way better on the road this year than at home, for mysterious reasons that are not solely the fault of Camden Yards’s dimensions.
- With a 17-29 record right now, it looks like the only thing the Twins are competing for is a 2022 top draft pick.
