I really like this team.  Record might be similar to last years team, the 2019 version will probably end up winning a few more games.  Detroit probably gets the #1 pick. But this team is infinite

It was said multiple times in 2012... but tonight's game is a game that the Orioles simply don't win from 2000-2011. It was weird to see the Orioles win these games last year and it still feels weird watching them win them this year too.

I can't quite get used to this.

It's up there with a couple of others. The Manny homer in Boston. Lot's of heroes tonight but Manny's bunt and his go ahead hit stand out to me. The kid knows what to do in tight situations. A simple ground ball in the 1B-2B hole. He wasn't trying to do too much.

It was beautiful because you could see him try and stay back to make sure he didn't roll over into a DP. Just such a great and smart swing.

I have to admit. I got a little anxious seeing that 6-0 spot but my kid brother told me to keep the faith. Nice win guys. And yeah these guys have a lot of heart.

How old is your kid brother? A new fan since 2012?

12. Nah, he's been watching the games with me since he was 5-6 so he knows how bad the team used to be. I guess he just had more optimism than I did tonight.

Ah to be 12 years old when your favorite team is good.... good times.

The kid has a Baseball IQ of about 200, to go with his mad skills.

      This is starting to happen.  Love to see it. I want to go back to something I have been saying for a while…the Os have a lot of solid vet bats but none of them should be viewed as everyday guys.  I happen to believe that if healthy, Mounty is going to have a career year but I think we need to look at these guys as 300-550 at bats guys…not 500+ for all of them(talking the vets here). By doing that, the young guys get enough playing time to justify being here.    And we also can make a trade or 2 as the season goes on, especially to get Mayo here. There is nothing wrong with this approach. It allows you to have your depth, keep everyone fresh and develop your young talent all at the same time.

      Albert Suarez 2024

      Suarez definitely has a plan up there. Changes if the ball is moving in or out. Changes speeds and eye level. He’s also a good weapon to ride right now because the league is essentially getting a first look at him.

      My goodness, what a lineup. I hope everyone is taking a second to smell the roses. This is rare even with Holliday's struggles, and Mayo/Basallo aren't even hear yet.

      Samuel Basallo 2024

      By interloper · Posted

      He is 5 years younger than the competition. Personally I feel like there's nothing to see here. He was on a heater when he was added to Bowie late last season. He's coming off an interrupted ST and stress fracture injury. He's 19. It's going to be ok lol.

      An 8 lefty lineup, and with all that talent. I don’t think we got to 8 lefties even with Hicks. Maybe we did with Lester at 3B?  Somewhere Bud Norris is happy he’s retired with all the LHH.  Just like with the pitching staff and their health, things will work themselves out or some players will have to go to AAA. I think Holliday gets till the Yankees series. Or maybe we just bench him if he’s not hitting for those games. Those are big games.

      I will say that it is a great luxury to have a team this good, where we can keep running him out there while he’s giving us nothing, and still score plenty of runs. If we can get him going, at some point in this season, we may have the best offense in baseball. Yes, better than even the Braves and Rangers (and I guess Brewers who have mashed so far this year).

      Tomas Sosa 2024

      By Tony-OH · Posted

      After a slow start through his first two series, Sosa had a nice series against Down East Wood Ducks. He's still swinging and missing a little too much, but the 5 walks and 5 doubles were good to see.  So far he's had the best start out of the International top prospects outhitting both Tavera and Arias (who is now on IL).
