Absolutely. I'm pretty sure that we may have seen the last of players who don't produce. McKenna, Odor, Nevin. Even Hays, Vavra and Mountcastle need to be working their arses off this offseason.

I don't think it was about being worn down. They overachieved and didn't have a playoff caliber roster. Put 2 more reliable starters in the rotation and replace a few hitters with one to two 800+ OPS players, and this team is dancing.

100%. I feel really good with a core of Bautista, Perez and Baker. But we need more. EDIT: And Tate!

True... but to upgrade the current flock, money must flow

Here's the crazy part. The O's could still get a high 2023 draft pick if the lottery gods provide a winning ticket.

Agreed. If Elias says the money spigot will open, I'm ready to see results.

I'm not sure about that. You can still pitch around the most dangerous hitter in the league even if the runner is on first instead of second. I know I would have done so.

Locate that changeup, command the fastball, throw the slider to keep hitters honest. That's the key right?

Not only that... but his fastball was 96-98 and his changeup was at 84-85. Great differential there.

LOVE his use of the changeup

Hypnotize them with the high socks DL

Big spot for DL. I'm looking forward to seeing how he handles this.

Great jump.

Bautista throwing for the Yankees fans like they wished Chapman still threw.

Gotta be a contender!

I like how the fans are still standing for Rizzo

What's the record for tallest combined height of pitcher and batter?

Yes

Perhaps. But it seems to be Hyde's M.O. down the stretch

I really don't like Hyde's reliance on the 6 out save.

I mean this is Rich freaking Hill

Yes, it came through my window here in Hartford

Odor should pay attention. That's what happens when you run hard out of the box.

Don't tell us logic and facts. You'll only confuse us.

Hey at least McKenna is available.
