vs. Texas Rangers, 6/5

[Lester Freamon]

At least we are still ahead of the Yankees in the standings. I hope Chen can give us 6 strong, at least, tomorrow night.

In what planet was that third pitch a strike?

The planet Theumpirewantstogohome. In a galaxy far, far away. Or, just a bit outside.

We'll take 7 strong thank you.

[Lester Freamon]

Also, 3 errors by Hardy. Kinda flukey way to lose, IMO. Not taking this particular loss too hard. But I am concerned about the pitching staff being so dinged up with some very patient lineups coming down the pike.

[Jonesy10]

Not even close to true.

Considering the Orioles went almost 3 weeks in between winning series I would say it is true. Unless you have a different meaning of the word weeks...

This is Chen we're talking about, I'm trying not to be greedy. And, I did say "at least".

Split the Astros series. Split the Indians series. Split the Pirates "series". Split the Royals series. Won the Astros series. Swept the TB series.

Your not technically wrong, but disingenuous and negative as hell.

I wasn't saying it in a negative way! There's no shame in winning a series but not sweeping it. The O's need to start winning more series. It's good that they haven't been losing many series, but since that Astros series they are 3 games under because they had not won one until this series.

The bottom line for me is this: the O's have not exactly hit their stride yet, but they haven't exactly given away the farm either. They are right at a playoff spot and they have only the Jays in front of them in the division. Perhaps the Jays scare some people. I happen to not be one of those people. Win series. Do that and the O's will be in the playoffs fighting for a World Series ring.
