Hello, friends.
There are now four months and ten days remaining until the next scheduled Orioles game, which is Opening Day 2022. We are within three months of when pitchers and catchers will report to Sarasota to begin spring training. As has been the case since I started noting this countdown, this is assuming there is no disruption to the 2022 schedule from the anticipated owner lockout if the MLB Collective Bargaining Agreement expires on December 2 without a new agreement having been reached.
Today’s excitement, such as it is, will revolve around the announcement of the winners of the MVP awards for the 2021 season.
