I mean, of course, SG if we're playing pretend you make that trade 100% of the time. I thought you were suggesting that those players get it done so I voted no based on that.

They wouldn't make that trade. There isn't a chance in hell that they would, the proposal is so ridiculous that in good conscience I had to vote no. We're asking to trade for the best pitcher in the AL for Kjerstad and probably a bunch of nothing.

I voted no because there is no chance that Detroit will make this trade.

You shouted from the rooftops that Povich needed to be brought up and now you're doing it for McDermott. You will never be satisfied and there is absolutely nothing "telling" about this game. It's a loss and even when the Orioles were losing 108 games they managed to blowout playoff teams like the Guardians who won 93 games and got blown out by the 108 loss O's 13-0 two days in a row.

Oh he can pitch now, I guess.

They'll be fine. There is too much talent here and water always finds its level.

Did you think they wouldn't slump over the course of 162 games because the xStats look so nice on Statcast?

This must be Medina's WS game. 95 MPH average FB and he's throwing 100, good way to blow your arm out on a 36 win team.

I wonder how long that one guy there replies to himself in the game thread before just giving up and turning on the PS5.

I'm not convinced we've lost this game yet.

When we lost 108 games in 2019 we beat the 93-win Guardians 13-0 on two consecutive days. Even the worst teams run into good fortune. The Orioles won a third of their 54 games (18) by what is considered a blowout win.

Yeah they want him in a clean inning.

Death by a thousand bloops now.

Skubal for Povich, Mountcastle, Hays, and Urias. That should get it done.

Not your fault.

I haven't seen them in years outside of a random quote, which luckily doesn't happen much.

I only see them when people quote them, I wish they wouldn't.

You did fine, but if you really want to insult him, call him by his middle name.

He's no headliner but he's on par with McDermott and people always mention him in trades like they think Povich is going to turn into a solid starter.

Yet nobody wants to trade him for a guy like Crochet. Maybe they'll take Baker or Vespi instead.

He was used quite a bit last year but I don't know how Philly utilized him or if they just had a lot of 4+ run wins.

I'm sure the deception is what has allowed him to be effective for so long. It almost looks like he's shooting from the hip to me. I don't know if that makes sense.

I'd love to see what they were batting against the Cutter in his first 5 starts or so, it does not look like the same pitch, it's not cutting and just seems straight, especially up in the zone to RHB.

I mean, if we're going to send Kjerstad and Mountcastle they'd have to send back Riley Greene or it's a no from me.
