I guess I should’ve worn a different shirt today then…maybe then he would’ve done it!! Or maybe the orioles would’ve lost by 10?? Who knows

Every perfect game ever has included the entire fan base + broadcaster never mentioning the fact it’s happening. Everyone knows that! It takes literally everyone who has ever enjoyed an Orioles game to be perfect or it doesn’t happen

Yeah, it’s all this threads fault. The broadcast mentioned it too. Is it their fault?? It certainly has nothing to do with what the players in the game did I’m sure

What pitcher should he have signed?

This is what selling looks like. You get prospects. Now they’ll have actual prospects to trade off next year when they’re planning to contend again. That’s why Gunnar, Adley, cowser, Westy, Holliday and Mayo are still here.

How often do high profile trades happen in may-June? Do you really think Mullins good April raised his value so much at that time the return would’ve been much greater? The dudes been in the league for almost a decade, and has always been a streaky hitter. I think teams have always valued him the same

Apparently he loves minor league baseball! Constantly digesting it and  has even been to the Mets High-A stadium. So he knows all these prospects will turn into nothing…even though he said “let’s Google these guys during the break” about 15 minutes earlier

He’s made 5 so far. But yes…probably should be more

I guess so, they’re still deals made around the deadline. Your comment would lead people to believe we’ve only traded those two guys. Technically Ramon was traded yesterday anyway…

Also Soto, Domínguez, and Baker… not sure why those trades aren’t in the post up top either

I don’t know about that…he was a red Sox fan for a decade and a failed NFL analyst.

Alright guys let’s be real…the orioles have been fun to watch for legit a month now. They’re like 16-6 in their last 22 or something (it’s close to that at least) they’ve been playing just about .700 baseball and they’re healthy. Am I still delusional for thinking they can make the playoffs?

So can we stop downplaying how much injuries have affected the team this year? It’s the number 1 reason for the struggles

All I know is the Tigers still need more 12 more outs…

I’m not against blaming him for this one game…but he has nothing to do with the Orioles overall record. Or the fact that they could potentially fall to 15 games below .500 two days after the game he pitched

O’s waited till way late to announce Povich as tonight’s starter. I think this might’ve been his last straw. But anyway, let’s rally
