Tough crowd.

Good luck, Pete! Orioles have a fun squad and I wish them well, except against my Rangers.

I have a feeling the Rangers are going to be that 1 team we will not figure out how to beat the next couple seasons. A lot can change, but I would feel much better about our chances if we can avoid Texas. Bring on the Astros. We have their number I think. Good Luck as well! See ya in October!

11 strike outs from Burnes.
9 strike outs from Rodriguez.
23 runs in first 2 games (3 innings to go)
Gunnar might win and MVP or 2.
I can't believe Mullins and Hayes have probably become our "weakest" part of our lineup...

Long way to go, but man oh man can they play.

"Kjerstad is batting .583 (14-for-24) with four homers and 18 RBIs in five games, while Stowers is hitting .400 (10-for-25) with five homers and 14 RBIs. Holliday, a son of seven-time All-Star Matt Holliday, is hitting .400 (10-for-25) with two homers and eight RBIs for the Tides."

Talent is at an embarrassment of riches. Good and bad problems to have for Elias and Hyde. Holiday will play everyday when he comes up, but not sure how you get the necessary playing time to Cowser (already up), Kjerstad, Stowers, Norby, and Mayo in order for them to develop well. You have to think a trade will have to happen sooner or later.

I don't like the shorter games. At 3 hours, it's an event. Somehow only 20-30 minutes less makes it more of an inconvenient interruption to my afternoon or night.

Starting a 34 year old pitcher who hasn't pitched in the majors since 2017? No problem for the O's.

Grayson and the defense were fun to watch tonight.

I can't believe we kept Urias and traded away Norby.

And why TF would we trade Stowers AND Norby for ROGERS?!

I think we got just good enough at the trade deadline to get swept in our first series again.

I'd rather have kept rolling Suarez out there than settle for that trade because the market did not allow for anything better.

The farm system is looking a little thin now. We've got a whole bunch of really promising international players along with some still very good top draft picks, but a lot of guys are very far from Norfolk.

Anyway...I can't stand Urias. Mateo getting hurt sucked. They are polar opposites. Urias is slow and crumbles under pressure but plays great offense and defense when there is absolutely no pressure. He pops out or strikes out any time we are behind or runners are in scoring position after the 6th inning in any game. Just watch. Mateo is as clutch as it gets.

We have like 1.5 starting pitchers and 1 relief pitcher.

Good series, gents. The Astros @ BAL is always one I look forward to each year.

Let's go O's!

The guy who sold me the Milkman shirt on ebay was the one who spotted me.

It was an XL so I had to tuck it in, but I'm used to having to tuck things in that are too big.

Great series W. I'd go to game 2 but...there is something far more important on tonight.

Welp. Just like A&M, we need a better strength and conditioning coach.

Injuries. Wow.

Here I go.

This elderly Baltimore Orioles fan calling the New York Yankees “the New York Skankees” on live Television has me in tears. pic.twitter.com/ZU8Ak8dy0C
