Quick weather update for the game tomorrow. With the cold front pushing through tonight/tomorrow, look for showers to break out mid morning and carry into the early evening hours. Right now, there is a good shot of rain (70-80%) after 11am, with the heaviest rain falling from 11am-4pm. It will depend on how quickly the front progresses through the area (or stalls), but there is a chance the game does not start at the slated time of 6:07pm. I don't see the game getting cancelled entirely, as we are only talking total QPF of 0.25-0.50" throughout the duration of the rain event. Also things will quickly clear once the rain passes off to our north/east, so it shouldn't be an issue getting the game played.

The other weather factor we will have to deal with will be the chilly temperatures. Game time temps look to be right around 50 with the rain showers, and dropping in to the mid-40's throughout the game as the conditions start to clear and improve. So make sure you dress appropriately.

If anything significant changes with the 12z model run, i'll update you guys, but at that point, the system will be in the area and can be nowcasted via radar and satellite imagery.

I'm going with a meteorologist. This was his pregame email last night. He's pretty good within 24 hours of knowing the weather.

My 84 year old father told me three times last night that I should be sure to dress warmly for the game. The third time I said, "dad, you do realize that I'm 55 years old, right?"

My son's flying in for the next two days, so I hope they play even if it's gross out. He can't stay for a Tuesday game.

YES. One of my all-time favorite unheralded/B-side Beatles cuts. The bassline in this is as good as it gets.

Oh and I just jumped through all kinds of hoops to get Eutaw St. bleacher tickets for this one, so while intellectually I realize a rainout might be a huge assist to this team, I kinda still wanna see it get played ...

It was also one of Ringo's proudest moments ever in regard to his drumming in that song.

A parent never stops being a parent, and you will never stop being their baby as long as they are alive.

Those are the rules, Frankington. ;)

If only they had stuck to the 2-2-1 format. Very low chance of rain here and Monday is suppose to be beautiful. Good luck getting the game in.

It's 80% chance of rain in NY after 3 pm today, so I don't know about that. Not supposed to rain a lot, though.

      Kjerstad Joining Team

      By interloper · Posted

      I think you're basically right, probability-wise.  That said, almost no one thought Kjerstad coming up today was the move they were going to make. So... you never really know with Mike and roster moves. But I agree, it's tough to figure out how he stays if Mounty is healthy when Hays comes back.

      But he's 82nd percentile in barrel percentage and 92nd percentile in Whiff. I saw some some high EVs that were hit at 60 degree angles or more which were pop ups. I'm not saying he's a long term piece. I'd need to see it for longer than two starts, but I like the stuff overall, especially if he can get his curveball over more often to give another look to the change and cutter.

      The rookie is a #2 overall selection, now 25 years old, who battled back from missing significant time with non-baseball related illness, was called up last season but had mostly sit behind a mediocre performing veteran (Hays), and is performing better at the minor league levels than Hays ever did. But, I guess he hasn’t paid his dues and is just temporarily holding a spot for the guy who was fortunate enough to come up when he was much younger and the organization was in bad shape.

      Simmer down...  Just because you've got it all figured out doesn't mean I do.

      Bird Tapes

      By John Eisenberg · Posted

      Jumping on to make sure everyone here knows about the Orioles history project I've started this season. It's called the Bird Tapes . When I wrote my oral history book about the team a quarter-century ago, I interviewed all the major figures in franchise history and kept the microcassette tapes that I used while recording those interviews. They sat in a shoebox in my closet for years but now I've had them digitized and I'm going to be rolling them out in weekly posts along with some new writing that connects the Orioles' past to the present. The Bird Tapes is housed on the Substack media platform. The web address is birdtapes.substack.com. It's a subscription-based model and subscribers gain access to the vintage interviews for a small monthly fee. So far I have posted my quarter-century-old interviews with Brooks Robinson, Earl Weaver and Ernie Harwell, the legendary broadcaster who was the Orioles' first play-by-play man. Next up: Paul Blair. I've written articles about Mark Belanger and Brooks, and much, much more is coming. The response to the rollout of the Bird Tapes has been great so far. Please subscribe if interested at birdtapes.substack.com.

      We drafted him for his elite speed and defense. If the bat plays - he could be a star. If not, he could still be a useful piece. You don't see the same projections from Cowser, Westburg or Kjerstad because those were bat-first players. There's a reason we're having trouble finding space for guys like Kjerstad and Norby.  Also you're going to say it might be his first draft flop after 13 games at A+? Wild.
