  1. Maldonado must have pix of someone because he can’t carry Diaz’ intangible jock.
  2. There is no “time” requirement. Just as there is no “tie goes to the runner” rule.
  3. Agree. Except for Gibson and Flaherty, their starters are about to exceed season highs for IP … and none but those two seldom get into the 6th inning. That’s youth/inexperience defined and poison to middle relief who are burned out and living on the shuttle to/from Norfolk.
  4. Dean Kremer starting for the O’s. Watch for his pitch selection … Nibble, nibble, nibble, center center, 💣
  5. O’s are playing with house money. They expected to compete for the AL East … in 2024. But, early returns thanks to contributions from kids and young vets … with lots more coming soon. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/38159103/baltimore-orioles-mlb-al-best-record
  6. Yeah .. but, I don’t have a problem with fluid starting lineups because Hyde is breaking in a roster full of kids who play multiple positions. My issue tonight is Mateo has played ~20 ML games in the OF … in his career. Defensive replacements were available.
  7. I think most ML OF would have caught it.
  8. Nice comeback. I had a premonition about Tucker and him extending that AB made it seem inevitable. He scares me more than anyone else in that lineup. The kid is a player. I will close with one O’s observation. No way should a SS be playing CF when you’re trying to protect a lead in the 9th. There were options.
  9. Nothing baffling about the Angelos family. Father and now sons have silenced Jon Miller, Gary Thorne, and Kevin Brown. O’s-owned MASN BBS is not taking this well. BTW, one storyline has the Angelos’ slow rolling a new lease for OPACY .. potentially in hopes Nashville comes courting. Too bad Omar ain’t around to clean up that mess …
  10. He ain’t that bad an analyst .. once you learn to tune out the inevitable SEC and LSU plugs.
  11. I’m puzzled. Kevin Brown is a delightful PBP guy. He’s factual proving he’s done his homework, quick witted and downright funny, and a perfect foil to two distinct opposite personalities in Jim Palmer and Ben McDonald. Following is a snippet I found that seems to point to the assholes who unfortunately own the team … “The O’s and MASN have yet to commented (sic) on Brown’s indefinite suspension, but it would appear these orders come from the top. This is far from the first time Baltimore’s broadcast booth has been at odds with the organization itself. Peter Angelos fired Hall of Famer Jon Miller in 1997 because of honest commentary about the team’s play. Baltimore also owes the Nationals $100 million (for now) over MASN broadcasting rights fees. What a mess.” P.S. Brown did the women’s college softball WS this year. So, he’s no slouch ..
  12. It doesn’t say how he did on the windmill hole …
  13. While you’re at it, look up their role model, Eric Gregg.
  14. Too bad Astros hitters can’t make bat contact as well as Graveman …
  15. Flaherty was asked about the former Cards in this series … said he laughed when he saw DeJong come to bat the first time.
  16. Hanging out with Mahomes’ brother?
  17. Flaherty was good yesterday. He had command of multiple pitches, was ahead in the count consistently, and left the Blue Jays little choice but to swing at his pitches. At one stretch, he retired 15 in a row. That’ll work …
  18. I would advocate a high heater that the catcher thought was going to be another low ball ...
  19. My first thought when it happened was ACL. Hope I'm wrong.
  20. At least I’ve learned that grass grows and paint dries in the southern hemisphere.
  21. Lowell Galindos just don’t grow on trees, you know?
