Matusz might be the most unlucky pitcher ever.

Yes and no. His defense has not helped but he needs to be able to put batters away. The classic example was the Justin Turner at bat after getting him 0-2 and the walking him. He has to be able to make better pitches. then the next guy lines a fastball out over the plate and Jones let's the ball bounce out of his glove.

Man if i was Buck i'd be screaming in the dugout to get some %^$$% runs... good thing i'm not the manager.

(Edited by moderators) We're more lenient in the game threads but you can't use that one, even with the one asterisk.

Cr*p sandwich. This team better figure out how to score 4+ runs. And Buck should rip a few new ones. He NEEDS to show some fire. What a bunch of stiffs.

I don't really think they aren't trying, just right now he doesn't have a ton of offensive talent to put out there right now. Look at this lineup. It's brutally bad.

I realize it was different pitching, but we had no problem scoring runs against Pittsburgh with this lineup.

How embarrassing to be losing to this lineup. Scott Hairston clean-up, Nickeas knocks in the first run (off the Adam Jones heel drop), someone named "Rottino" batting fifth hitting .188.

This short start NOT Matusz's fault. As SNY put it, the O's D looks like (a) they're in slow motion and (b) not even neutral, but first gear.

Cd blame offensive incompetence as the after-effect of facing Dickey and Santana, but what explains the D?

Call me crazy, and I have no reason to think this but I think the Orioles still win this game.

Haha, you are crazy. ;) This team's poor starting pitching and pathetic lineup is catching up. things are just snowballing for them right now unfortunately but it's not like I look at this team and wonder why it's not winning. I look at this team and wonder why it has won so much.

      Jacob Webb 2024

      By sportsfan8703 · Posted

      He’s having a start to the season like Baker had last year. Webb is very underrated. “Everyday Webby”. Gotta thank the Angels for that gift.

      Basallo for Miller y/n?

      By Bemorewins · Posted

      The A’s have an unprecedented situation, given the flux of the franchise and not having a future permanent place to call him right now. So their situation is a little different to begin with. However, you might be right, they might take the risk not to trade him. But teams NEVER build around a closer (even one who appears to be as dominant as Miller). They are going to be bad this season and next with or without Miller because their team is not strong enough to get him enough chances and to win enough games independent of him. They do not have enough hitting talent to challenge TEX for the division or make a legit run as a wildcard.  They would be better off trading him (while they can before a possible injury occurs) because they need so much help. If the Orioles were devoid of org talent like the A’s were it would have made sense to move a Mullins. But considering at the conclusion of ‘19 that we had drafted Adley and Gunnar (by then) AND we had a young Mountcastle and Hays and Grayson and Hall (who was still considered a very good prospect) and we had a very high pick coming the next year. I would say our situation is MUCH DIFFERENT than their situation is. The cupboard is pretty bare in their system.

      McKenna and Hicks.  We can go 8 LHH vs RH SP and 8 RHH vs LH SP. Actually 9 if we rested Gunnar ever. Matchups baby.

      12.2 IP 1 ER in the Yankees series. Now we get to add Suarez. Hopefully, Suarez can be another Cano. Wishful think for a guy to return to the USA and suddenly become an All Star legend reliever, I know. But it’s what we need.  Webb is also having a great year.  Besides Kimbrel, the pen’s only “con” is that only Akin and Cano have options. I like Baumman, and he’s survived, but it sure would be nice to fire up the Norfolk shuttle and always have a fresh one of Vespi, Baker, Krook, Ort, and Heasley, in the pen to rotate through on a nightly basis.

      The M & M & M Boys should be big this weekend! Monty - Mateo - Mckenna. My guy Mullins still got work to do on that swing.
