vs. WHITE SOX 6/23

JJ big fly.

I'm not saying anything. Not saying a word. No sir-ee.

Not a solitary syllable...

[O's84]

Very frustrating. Those stranded base runners earlier are haunting us.

[Can_of_corn]

It seems we get a lot of hits with RISP where the runner doesn't score due to our lack of speed. Maybe it's just me though.

Probably another example of observational bias.

My guess is the O's numbers in that regard are close to league average.

In the least surprising news in the history of the planet...

The Orioles swing at the most pitches outside the strike zone in the American League.

Hold them at 4 and we win this thing.

I don't mind emotion Tony. I mind folks repeating the exact same factual inaccuracies. Just because it's a game thread doesn't mean you can't learn something.

The types of lies that I dislike are the ones that are done over and over to make it appear truthful by volume.

[scOtt]

I like Del.. I think he's a valuable guy off the bench and in spot DHing.

Me too. Like him. Altho I think he's a little redundant with Pearce.

[Can_of_corn]

It is virtually impossible to hit better than everyone else with RISP yet score less runs than them. I would think this is perception bias.

That is where the lack of OBP just kills the offense at times.

Right, but some people are who they are. I guess I just don't let them get under my skin. I use the power of ignoring and shunning.

Terrible AB by Hardy there. Just one of those "I have no idea what to do against this guy" kind of hackaways!

A real shame too.

[Teddy OBP]

I don't mind emotion Tony. I mind the same handfull of folks repeating the exact same factual inaccuracies. Just because it's a game thread doesn't mean you can't learn something.

Which is trolling plain and simple.

Hardy's AB was much worse than Manny's or Schoop's.

Shunning is powerful against an attention getter.

2nd in average, 3rd in home runs, 5th in OPS, 1st in RISP, 9th in runs. Not impossible.
