No one notices when I comment on great plays or great performances.You can look it up.I appreciate your thoughts, but Im no more a doomsayer as any passionate fan on this board. Do I overreact? Sure. But I am very quick to applaud and congratulate great plays and players(like Manny's play just now which we go overlooked if we can somehow win this game).

What am I chopped liver? :P

I just agreed with your comments on Schoop.

Did you guys see Gomes throw his helmet off like he was safe on the Machado throw?

I'm so effing sick of Boston.. a few years of winning and they're more entitled than the MFYs. Every singe pitch is an argument with the ump that it was in fact a strike, all the while they are sitting literally on top of the plate. Just so childishly entitled, play like men. No one has a boo-hoo-cry-fest like Ortiz.

Their fans are even worse, I think. The booing of their own team like A.J. in the first game was uncalled for.

Just think tomorrow we might need Gausman to win us 1 game here. Gausman 2 innings in 10 days i don't like those odds.

Don't get me wrong, I don't doubt your Orioles "fan hood" or support for one second. Never have, never will. I don't think your participation on this board is for publicity or notoriety in any way, shape, or form, so I'm sorry if that's what you got from my question.

But you have to admit, you're a doomsayer. Some fans are perpetually positive, some are negative - that's all.

This is completely untrue. He (like myself to a lesser extent) trumpets the likes of Gausman and Schoop. A doomsayer wouldn't in my opinion.

    • I don't think it is really the past 5 games.  It is the next 4 months, potential playoffs, and all of next year that has people concerned.  Remember these elbows aren't just taking guys out this year, but most of next year as well. And Burnes probably won't be around next either. 
    • It is just a real shame that the Os are going through all of these elbows.  Take away all of the elbows going back to last year with Felix and I would say the Os are a lock to get to the WS and would have a great chance to win it all. I haven't seen this many injuries from a teams top guys in such a short amount of time in maybe.....forever. I am starting to wonder if it is something the Os are doing as far as their training.   Trying to obtain too much spin, revs, and velocity. I am a big Colts fan and for years we have complained about all of the knee blowouts and hammy injuries they get when playing at home.  Finally the Colts realized that it might be turf related from their home field and replaced it this past spring.    
    • I've been a fan for a long time too but mostly remember a lot of near misses, not tailspin collapses. 2005 comes to mind (Raffygate, Sammy Sosa, Lee Mazzilli, et al.)... what other seasons are you thinking of, to create scar tissue?
    • I really like Kremer.  Seems like a good guy and a solid arm. But he is not going to be the guy to get you into the playoffs and he especially won't be a guy between a make or break WS championship. 
    • We can hope he’s back to being his #5 self, but he’ll now be a #3, and let’s all x the fingers
    • The 5 game losing streak is a 5 game losing streak.  I am not too concerned about that unless it turns into something bigger. Every team goes through it.  What I am concerned about is losing 3 starters and 2 great relievers since last August with not a lot to replace them other than Burnes.  And they won't even back for most of next year...if at all. Add in the fact that Burnes is more than likely leaving after this year?  Our cupboard pitching wise is pretty bare as it looks right now. So imo you absolutely need to trade some of your AA and AAA players to get pitching help now and for next year.  This team is too good to waste years on players like GH and AR. 
    • Trading Drew Rom for Flaherty was not a big swing. It was trading a maybe prospect for a “hope he’s ok” guy with three months before FA. I am increasingly convinced Mike won’t make any bigger move this season, and what we have is basically what we will have.
