</b>

Gallardo has a 3.38 ERA in August with only two home runs allowed, but struggled against Houston allowing 10 base runners in seven innings allowing four runs with thre being earned. Before that, he allowed nine base runners in five innings with three earned runs allowed. His numbers against the Yankees aren't good, but much better at Yankee Stadium.

Luis Cessa

(3-0)

4.01 (1.09/.217)

16K / 7BB, 5HR

QS: 1

Cessa has been up and down this season for the Yankees and made his only start of the season in his last appearance. He threw six shutout innings of three hit ball against the Angels. He wasn't a highly rated prospect in the Yankees system, but he pitched to a 3.03 (1.15) in 77.1 innings at AAA this season with 69 strikeouts and eight home runs allowed.

vs. Batter

Steve Pearce 0/2

Scherzer was just like you thought he would be trying to end a losing streak for his team: dominant. Jimenez pitched well and really not that surprising to me considering his numbers at Nationals Park, but was outpitched by Scherzer which is also no surprise. The game was 1-0 in the eighth before the Orioles bullpen inevitably collapses again this time at the hands of Ondrusek and Wright with three more runs allowed and the Orioles get shutout in the three hitter.

The Yankees have some of the best pitching in the AL over the last week and have a better bullpen than the Orioles with all three categories being top three in the AL. Meanwhile, the Orioles are dead last across the board in the last week and are bottom fourth in the league in starting pitching. The Orioles bullpen continues to be overrated (as far as being the best in the AL) being more middle of the pack than anything else and really has been all season. The Orioles do have the best relief pitcher in baseball for sure though and Brach was among the best in the first half of the season which makes the bullpen extremely top heavy.

The good thing is the Orioles have been hitting again, but so have the Yankees. They don't have the same type of offense the Orioles have of course, but they are scoring runs and their pitching has turned it up. It's always a tough series against the Yankees and right now, they are better than they've been all season long and are hungry. This could be a tough series. The Yankees dealt their best players for youth which is exactly what the Orioles need to do this offseason and look how exciting that team is. They are set up nicely for the future and the Orioles will be as well if they do what's best for the team long term. It wouldn't take long for people to forget all about the guys we would be trading, either. There'd be far too much to look forward to and no need to look back.

Gallardo is enjoying his best month of the season by far while Cessa is an unknown who is suddenly an important part of NY's playoff push with his last start. He was enjoying his best year at AAA by far and his first ever MLB start was a good one, but had mixed results out of the bullpen.

Toronto and Boston both lose with J.A. Happ giving up four runs in the fifth inning after four scoreless which was more than all the Angels needed to win and Boston loses another one run game despite Pomeranz pitching well for them since being acquired. The Tigers are coming on strong despite all their injuries and have won four in a row closing to two back of the Orioles with KC also winning to gain a game. Seattle is playing the White Sox and blew a three run lead in the seventh inning and are in a 6-6 tie heading to the bottom of the eighth. I'll update the standings depending on the outcome. The outcome is Seattle blew a 6-3 lead in the last three innings and gave up a walk off RBI single to Todd Frazier to complete the choke. It's amazing how many leads the M's blow.

Wild Card Standings

*Boston +1.0

*Baltimore --

Detroit -2.0

Seattle -3.0

Houston -4.0

KC Royals -4.0

NY Yankees -4.5

Was still driving home from work during the top of the first, and two notes from the radio broadcast:

1) Wow, Manny's HR sounded great, when I heard the crack of the bat I was thinking HR before Joe Angel had a chance today a word.

2) The IronBirds are advertising a promotion where they wear uniforms of the Baltimore Elite Giants Negro League team. Someone needs to tell them that regardless of how it's spelled, it is pronounced E-Light.

      Colton Cowser 2024

      By Filmstudy · Posted

      Starting point has changed.  Given the fact he has approx 1/7th of his season in the books at 1.139, to OPS just .780 for the season, he'd have to drop off to under .730 the rest of the way.  That sort of drop off wouldn't be acceptable to me. I'd like him to OPS .800 the rest of the way for roughly .850 for the season.  The more they use him in a platoon role, the better I think that number might be.

      Time Gunnar's triple

      By Filmstudy · Posted

      Can I ask how you timed it vs the DVR?  Did you use a stopwatch or count click with pause/FF, or something else?

      Who is "selling" this year?

      By Philip · Posted

      I can’t fathom why anyone would want a Tanner Scott return. In 10 innings, he is 0-4 with a 1.78 whip. He was maddening before, and now he’s older. But I wonder if the Red Sox would part with Justin Slaten? He’s been pretty outstanding. Yeah, only 8 innings, but we hired Yohan Ramirez, and he’s been a catastrophe in 10. Yes, I know he’s a rule 5, and the Bosox are in the East. And their pitching is pretty thin, too. But they know they aren’t going anywhere in this division, and they might think getting a good return for a Free Rule 5 guy might be worthwhile.

      2024 NFL Draft Discussion

      By Hallas · Posted

      This draft unfolded weirdly.  First with the *nix guys getting taken early and then how no defensive players got taken all draft, and then a bunch of teams reaching for OTs.  I'm pretty happy with how the draft unfolded because I think we got a player that I expected to be gone by the teens or early 20s.  I don't know what we're doing with our OL but hopefully we can maybe trade up from 62 to pick someone up.

      My guess is more of a safety profile than they preferred. They clearly wanted Wiggins. They ran that pick up fast. And then when you listen to the press conference, the love for the player was obvious.
