Tough birthday

With the money invested in him its worth a try if nothing else works. Nothing to lose.

The team should just tell him to take the rest of the season off. Get away from baseball all together to get his head straight. Come back in Jan or Feb and see if things are better.

Does he even look at the ball when he's up? Palmer keeps saying he's not seeing the ball. Seems like he isnt even looking for it.

How is he even batting .151? I watch him at the plate and am amazed he's not at .000

Maybe becuz CNN will pick up the story soon and blame Trump for CD's demise?

Should DD, Buck and whoever else really have their heads on the chopping block over bringing Tillman back this year? They took a flyer on a guy that had been good for the Orioles and gambled hoping it would pay off. We had a lotta holes on that pitching staff. Signed Cobb and Cashner and still needed another pitcher. Better to go with Wright? Its not like they chose Tillman over a lotta better sure options. Anybody they would be using in that spot is a gamble. Tillman happened to have a history that showed more potential if he could turn things around. It didnt work out.

As I was watching the Caps tonite I was thinking about how long this summer will be with the daily Buck & DD suck and Brady needs to go posts and was wondering if this team can even win 50 games this season.

Eddie was a great Oriole and adored by fans. But he got to be a sour puss, or at least came across that way. At one time he would be out in the parking lot after games signing autographs for all the fans. Likable guy, super star and fan favorite. But that changed and when he was perceived as having a poor attitude its a real turnoff to the fans.

McGwire = Jay Buhner in his 20's? No way am I buying that. Nobody would have thought that at the time.

Get to see the steal home then Donnie Iris Ah Leah

Opposite field homer looked fine to me

The Baltimore team that needed the win got it today tho. Maybe Some Ravens fans were home watching the Birds.

We may as well start the playoffs today then :2yay-thumb:

Nothing better than an Orioles win while all 4 other teams in the AL East lose. A win today will go a long way in soothing the pain of that Yankees series.

A thing of beauty no doubt. If the Rangers can hang on it will be a great nght

It will never get old.

There still stuck with him. And Skankee fans always have to tell you how they dont like the guy as if its some sorta conscience cleansing exercise.

Aroid brought that all on himself, so it didnt bother me. Actually I celebrated it!

I agree, but at the same time life isnt always fair.

Is this thread more of a discussion about PED's, or more of a bladder emptying contest?

That may apply in some cases, but it can also come from a mindset that recognizes that rules exist for a reason and to maintain order adherence to those rules is necessary realizing that there will always be someone trying to beat the system so all the responsibility goes on the one who is entrusted with the responsibility to adhere to the rules.

Yea, nothing on his twitter or anywhere else that I could find.

This was posted in the comments section, but I cant find anything to confirm that Gammons said anything chitown3118 hours ago Peter Gammons reporting Jake Arrieta’s name is involved! I hope his “protein shakes” don’t involve Sammy Sosa’s “Flintstone vitamins”

Honorable teammate doing what he could. Didn't want to let the team down.
