Darrell Rasner, RHP (5-9, 4.93)
Yankees (69-60)
Daniel Cabrera, RHP (8-8, 4.98)
Orioles (61-67)

Scouting Report:
Yankees: Rasner will get another turn through the Yankees' rotation on Sunday, when he wraps up the club's three-game series at Camden Yards. The 27-year-old was sharp on Tuesday at Rogers Centre in Toronto, holding the Blue Jays scoreless through six innings on three hits before Adam Lind sent a 3-2 cutter over the right-field wall to send Rasner to a 6 2/3-inning no-decision. Rasner's record is deceiving, as the Yankees have burned him with a lack of run support numerous times. Still, he is winless in his past six appearances. He is 1-2 with a 2.37 ERA in three starts vs. Baltimore this year.

Orioles: Cabrera allowed six earned runs over 4 1/3 innings in his last start, the latest in a string of unsuccessful outings for the right-hander. Cabrera has now allowed six earned runs in four of his last seven starts, a stretch that dates back to July 19. Cabrera allowed the Red Sox offense to jump on him early, scoring three runs in the first two innings, and then was unable to keep the game close after his own offense put up two runs in the third. His night was finished after allowing three runs and then a walk in the top of the fifth. Cabrera has pitched very well against the Yankees, though, going 3-0 while allowing seven combined earned runs in 20 innings.

Daniel Cabrera, RHP (6-6, 4.86)
Orioles (49-55)
Mike Mussina, RHP (13-6, 3.26)
Yankees (58-45)

Scouting Report:
Orioles: It's safe to say that the Orioles 6-foot-9 right-hander is struggling. Cabrera suffered through his second consecutive start where he allowed six-plus runs, giving up seven earned runs to the Blue Jays on July 25. Tallying just one win in his last 12 starts, Cabrera has struggled with control, location and pitch selection -- even the balls that are hit for outs are the product of good solid contact. The good news for Cabrera is that he is 2-0 against the Yankees this season, defeating them at home in April and in Yankee Stadium in May. Both times the right-hander was able to go deep into the game and didn't allow more than two earned runs.

Yankees: Mussina blanked the Twins through eight innings Wednesday afternoon to pick up his 13th win. The right-hander did not walk a single batter for the third straight game. He struck out seven and scattered six hits to win his third consecutive decision. Mussina has now pitched at least six innings in each of his last 10 starts. He allowed just two Minnesota runners to reach second base, and none before the sixth inning. Mussina is 0-1 against the Orioles this season with a 13.50 ERA. In his last start against Baltimore he gave up seven runs in just 2/3 innings.
