The Orioles will wrap up their road trip with three games against the Cubs. All are 1:20 Central Time starts and the O's will face at least one soft tossing lefty in old friend Tsuyoshi Wada. Of course, this afternoon, their opponent is Jake Arrieta (31 walks and 122 strikeouts in 117 innings, 2.61 ERA). I just don't even know what to say about that.
