Nice job by Roberts. We got the run in. I thought that ball was gonna go off the wall ahhh. Sac Fly. Got the run in, we needed that big time.

I'm certain that wd have been a home run two-three years ago. Roberts has lost some crucial power. (Same thing with a few flyballs in other games since his return.)

This is where that mental blunder by Flaherty hurts us... If he was on 2nd he would have scored. Of course can't really talk about "could haves" never know...

He didn't run hard to 1B, then he didn't round the bag as he should have. Second day in a row he's had a brain fart. He's not good enough to be able to afford those.

No real excuse for lack of hustle esp when youre trying to prove yourself

Sorry to say this, but Flaherty does appear sometimes to be unjustiably self-satisfied. Trotted down to first on that single as if he'd hit it out of the ballpark.

I think he IS good enough... and hopefully learning lessons for all these blunders.

    • Mayo coming back from injury could have his debut in Baltimore delayed. 
    • Wasn't a huge fan of his swing for that last out today but coming in to pinch hit with 2 outs isn't easy.
    • Interpreting Malike's comment that way is theoretically possible, but I didn't take it that way--didn't feel that shade was being thrown on me at all. But thanks for the concern.
    • People are being a bit ridiculous with the holier than thou takes criticizing a little humor. I am not saying what happened couldn’t cause a significant concussion, but it would be a bit of a fluke if it did. Mullins barely hit him with the bat and he had a helmet on. The fact that it was in the back of the head did make him more vulnerable, but this wasn’t the type of thing you see and think he was lucky to be alive.  Guys have probably hit their heads harder on the top of the dugout or on the fence making catches.  And note this comes from someone whose son has suffered severe concussions and who is well aware of the dangers associated with them. In short, people need to lighten up a bit on guys like Roy.  It was a little gallows humor. 
    • Yeah, you read that wrong. LA2 is one of my favorite posters here and he knows it. No harm, no foul. If you aren't familiar with the game threads, it doesn't matter what the team is doing, people complain about it and people did make that same joke in the game thread long before Roy said it here. Game thread in summary - when the O's are not doing well, it's insufferable, when they are doing well, it's mildly less insufferable. There, that wasn't hard. I'd appreciate it if you didn't assume I'm throwing shade at people. I'll leave that up to you to do, you're really good at it.
    • Comp a. Like Gunnar, and beavers…
    • Wasn't Westburg a 2nd round draft pick?  It's a little early to judge last year's draft.
