Wilson has allowed five runs in two of the last four starts and pitched well enough for the standard QS in the other two, but not the stricter definition that I use. He got through at least six innings in all but the last one of four innings and five runs against the Yankees. Wilson has only pitched once at Canadian Communications and Media Company Centre and did pretty well. Wilson has been far better on the road this season than he has been at home, so that's a good thing.

Marcus Stroman

55K / 25BB, 6HR

QS: 7

Last 4 Starts (24.1 IP): (1-2) 7.77 (1.89) 36H, 10BB

After a very promising start to his major league career in 2014 and 2015, the Jays had high hopes for Stroman this season. Stroman threw three QS in April and four in May, but he has allowed six or more runs in three of the last four starts and he is not giving these runs up on home runs with only three surrendered since the start of May. Stroman has pitched well for his career against the Orioles and he has been at his best this season on the road where his numbers are far, far better than his numbers at Canadian Communications and Media Company Centre. Unfortunately for Stroman, that's where he will be pitching in this one.

The KC offense continues the abysmal drought as once again, they simply fail at putting runs up on the board. Edinson Volquez was strong early on, but the Orioles figured him out and put up four runs in the fifth inning saddling Volquez with his first back to back starts of allowing more than three runs. The Orioles have now won four in a row and six of seven heading to Toronto to play the Blue Jays for four games. I fully expect this to be an intense series and I hope that's exactly what it is. The Orioles play seven of their next 10 games against Toronto and the other three against Boston.

Well, Stroman has really struggled over the last four games after doing pretty well prior to that. His FIP is 3.73, so perhaps he hasn't been quite as bad as his ERA would suggest. Either way, we will find out soon. Stroman has also been pretty dreadful at home this season while Wilson has been at his best on the road and has had some success against Toronto with one start at Canadian Communications and Media Company Centre.

Everyone except Boston in the East will or has won today as the Yankees are still playing and they are up 12-5 on the Angels in the eighth inning which will be their third straight win. Toronto beat Detroit and Boston is getting ready to play their game at SF. In the Central, Cleveland is about ready to start their game in Seattle and the Nationals are up 7-0 on the White Sox in the fifth inning as Scherzer is working on a two hitter. Texas and Houston were tied 1-1 through six innings, but Houston has taken a two run lead in the top of the seventh on a two run double from Altuve and another solid performance from Doug Fister.

In the face of overwhelming odds, I'm left with only one option, I'm gonna have to science the...

In his first experiment, Jordan used growth cabinets to determine the least amount of light that could be delivered to the turf to maintain it at an acceptable quality level. Interestingly enough, with the roof open, the reflected light from the blue seats in Rogers Centre provide a better than ideal spectrum of light and the turf will get more than adequate solar radiation. The reason for the excellent light availability inside Rogers Centre is because of the building?s directional orientation.

    • There's not a single high level prospect on the team he pitched against tonight and even the one out he got was crushed
    • Let’s tap the brakes on his move to the bullpen. His stuff plays and he can get outs. Best of all, he doesn’t walk anyone. He challenges hitters and gets weak contact. With our defense, I’d rather him give up the occasional double or flared hit to the outfield than to see walks. Keep him in the starting rotation until he proves he doesn’t belong. Wells and Irvin both have experience in the pen and frankly for Irvin, though I love him, has a real tough time throwing strikes at times.    anyway, let’s see what the old dog can do.
    • I could see Suarez sticking in a bullpen role long term with the movement on his fastball. Also he might be able to throw a 2 to 3 more MPH harder not having to worry about trying to pitch six innings. The Orioles have done a good job finding pitchers who weren't expected to do much in recent years and it would be cool if Suarez is another find.
    • I mean, heres where we really find out if Holliday is cut out for the majors and if he has the character to fight through major adversity right off the bat right?  Saw a good point that there was a guy previously that started 4 of 55, and that was ole #8.  Mike Trout didnt get his batting average up to .200 until May 31st of his first season.  Ideal? Absolutely not.  But when the franchises all-time hits leader started with the same slump its something to pay attention to.
    • Going 1 for 25 is not hard to do. I would imagine many HS Senior players could do that if given 25 at bats in the big leagues. Not saying Holliday is not worthy, just how bad going 1 for 25 is. Had someone not been on 1st, he could be 0 for 25. I would like to see him more aggressive early in the count and more protective late in the count.
    • I hope Means gets into form eventually he deserves to be a part of this success after carrying the starting rotation on some absolutely horrid Orioles teams.
    • I used to have a bunch of good ones on an old MLB the show. My friends and I all made our own players with unique sounds and walk up music. I might have to fire up the PS3 to find some of the other ones, but I know this was one of them:
