  1. Highlight: Dodgers at Padres (10/08/2024) | MLB Gameday According to the announcers, Manny said that Buck Showalter taught him this.
  2. I'd rather they play Legos than play roulette at a casino until 8am. Is James McCann ready to make the jump from player to manager? He seems like a guy the others look up to. And he's obviously tough as nails.
  3. I fully expect to see McCann get equal or greater playing opportunities in the playoffs.
  4. "Jet" Johnson has an 84 arm and 81 sprint speed on Baseball Savant. I look forward to seeing him. But, according to mlb.com, Ced is in today's lineup.
  5. They are. I don't see Mayo being included on the post season rosters, barring injury.
  6. Not quite comfortable there, it seems. But, it looks like Mountcastle's return is on the horizon.
  7. MLBPA contract stipulates the Orioles must carry at least one red-headed reliever.
  8. The 4-run deficit was surmountable if we had more than one player who can hit the damn ball. Kimbrel giving up six runs in the 9th may turn out to be a blessing.
  9. Folks around town still seem excited about the Orioles. People have flags in their yards, and I see more caps, t-shirts, etc than I've seen in a long time. They are coming to the games and cheering the team. It's us diehards with our inflated expectations and assumed abilities to read tea leaves who are in the doldrums. It's baseball! Anything can still happen.
  10. Kimbrel + Rutschman = steal at will. Kimbrel can't hold the runners, Adley can't throw. I believe that proper coaching can cure what's flagging in Rutschman's game. I'm thinking Kimbrel is just done.
  11. I'm having a hard time remembering who any of our pitchers are at the moment!
  12. I was at the game today, and was amazed how cool and calm he was. If he started three batters off with a first pitch strike, I missed two of them. Yet he doesn't become flustered. Just keeps his cool and collects outs.
