Hays makes it a ballgame!

Anyone know what the projected arb number is for Mancini?

Very nice catch. He’s got some good instincts out there. I really think the ankle has bothered him most of the year.

This kid is on. Gonna be a long night.

Struck out the side! ?

This is what hurt Harvey prior to the AS break, poor command.

Take a look at the stance of Martin on the HR. He ditched the awkward leaning thing he was doing for a more normal crouch with the bat in a familiar position to start. Looks much more comfortable. Ill-advised flip to 2B on the DP, though. Too far away from the bag to try that, but Bannon saved him with a nice turn.

I’m good in a year or so as long as they don’t test for PEDs (poster enhancing drugs).

Or, Sahn-tahn-dair

Agreed. My dad is an Angels fan, so he knows mainly about the Orioles from what I tell him. But he would have read this article and found it helpful. National writers aren’t tailoring their pieces to Orioles’ fans.

For the life of me, I can’t figure out why the Padres are playing him in RF. He’s not good there. He played a catchable ball into a double....went back, turned around looking for a carom and it hit the base off the wall scoring a run.

Biggest improvement I saw was with FB command. Majority of his strike outs were located inner third. Better CH, too, which he kept down. A lot of weak contact, pop ups. Only ball I can remember being squared up was the Ohtani HR.

And if there are no suitors?

So, you’re sitting Mancini or Mountcastle?

Not sure about the hit by Adell to Stewart, but after the 2nd the bunt hit in the 5th was the only one allowed. So, definitely not a lot of hard contact.

Pretty good outing today for the second time in a row. 7 IP 3 H (one was a bunt) 6 SO 2 BB 1 HBP 72 pitches through 4 IP and then cruised w/ 20 over the next three. Looked very comfortable.

Six run lead, I’m ok w/ the risk.

Harvey

RM is fine at 1B. He’s not. They can NT him and then make him an offer.

Lopez w/ 98 mph

Lopez in....I say it here, it comes out there.

Boy, Akin over last three innings only threw 20 pitches.

The Orioles are up 7-1.

I’d say now let Lopez finish it after Akin finishes the 7th. ?
