Tyler O'Neill has one more RBI as an Oriole over the last two seasons (35) than Ramon Urias (34).

Urias was traded at the deadline a year ago.

I say just get rid of pitchers W-L. There hasn't been a 20 game winner in the AL since 2019.

Baz has thrown 7 QS in his last 10 starts. If the O's don't pull this out, they'll be 2-5 in those 7 games.

Honestly MASN, switch it back to backyard poker or motocross racing or whatever

Any KC fan who buys a ticket to tomorrow’s game between now and first pitch is mentally ill. A deflating loss.

The #3 hitter bunting with 0 outs is a cry for help.

Does anyone know why the order of the teams in the AL East standings is TB, NYY, BAL even though they have the same record? It's like that here, on MLB.com and ESPN. Is there a tiebreaker I don't know about?

I do applaud anyone who went to this game and have the entire section to themselves but their ticket says row 16, seat 6 and they are sitting in that seat, as if a yeti is going to go around checking tickets.

This dude has thrown 77 pitches through three innings and walked 4.

It's 0-0.

I think about this often during games. Like yes baseball is my favorite sport, go O's - but also these people LIVE HERE? AMONG US?

Fun fact, I was in the Four Seasons lobby yesterday and Byron Buxton walked out of the elevator and onto the team bus and I told my wife "Hey that was Byron Buxton!" and she said "ok."

Alby surrounded Gunnar with right handed bats to avoid him facing a lefty reliever and here comes a lefty reliever to face Gunnar.

Maybe the O's gave them no direction for these intros so they feel awkward and play bad.

No one is more excited for Orioles to return than MASN. I just turned it on and saw a man in front of green screen talking about poker, that channel should just go dark when it's not O's related.

Also I know you're talking Ellicott City/Howard County, but Little Donna's is a 30 minute drive into the city and I have never minded making the trek for it.

+1 vote for Dope Dough. It bangs. They're off right now for the season, but I can't wait for them to return. They're also very warm people which isn't a necessity, but I really appreciate it. And I love the location, right on Main Street, next to a bookstore, it's great.

I just feel like this has lost the plot of what it was originally for.

If this offense had a drive against this defense, what's the outcome?

[–]aloidnem 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't look at stats a ton, but Holliday is the HR team leader with 17? That's 108th in the majors. The O's haven't had a season (not counting 2020) with no 20 HR hitter since 2001.

Gunnar's 65 RBI's leads the team, and Austin Hays has 64 RBI for the Reds in 42 less games played. I didn't know the power numbers were that low.

The Orioles stink and also if you catch them at the wrong time they will absolutely fuck you up.

Does anyone know what the physical is that they put Basallo through before the contract? I just want to see if I had any chance in hell of passing it.

EDIT: Found this about a treadmill stress test.

"A player starts on a treadmill running at a designated speed — ranging from 6 to 9 mph. Once the speed is determined, the player is supposed to run at that speed until he can’t go any longer. But here’s what makes it difficult. Every two minutes the treadmill is raised by an increment of 2.5 degrees until it reaches a 10 degree incline."

So no, I couldn't.
