Buddy, he's not in the bullpen. He is banished for now. He was given an opportunity to pitch mop up and he blew it. He won;t start until we clinch and he wont pitch unless we are behind by five runs.

He pitched beautifully for Norris screw up against the Cubs. Kept the O's in the game. Buck screws up and lets him sit for 8 days and it's Ubaldo's fault? He'll pitch before we clinch. In fact, he'll pitch against the Yankees comes 12th-14th.

He might. He did pitch well in that game. Buck did not screw up. Give it a break.

That is one apt comparison right there.

I am fairly sure you are just being sarcastic here regarding that beyond stupid and ridiculous comment that booing Jimenez is akin to laughing at a starving child. But I am not going to be that nice regarding the dumbest post I have ever seen here bar none! Booing a multi-million dollar ball player for stinking in his profession is EXACTLY what he deserves. What child deserves to starve? No comparison whatsoever and anyone who feels sorry for an underachieving multi-millionaire needs to get their priorities straight?!

I sure hope he isn't pitching on the 13th as I am going to that game!

I agree he is relegated to Kevin Gregg status. Only way he gets into a relevant game is if it is the 19th innning and every other available pitcher has been used.

It is a very apt comparison of the type of person that does either of those things.

I disagree nothing related to each other.

Right of course not. A starving child would bring years to the eyes of anyone with a heart. Ubaldo or any ball player being booed off the field may not be pleasant for him but he had only himself to blame. That poor child is totally helpless and not living the life of a millionaire! Just a Wrong WRONG

      I thought Chisholm missed home too. They didn’t appeal tho I don’t think.

      Inexcusable missed call in NY. Review Cleo at showed Chisholm out at 2nd. They upheld safe call.

      Elias: It's on me

      Well, good on posters who proved the SSS side of "Guards Ball." I just found it striking in terms of the narrative in that article, which was basically the same as what most around here were complaining the O's lacked: clutch hitting, passing the baton, aggressive running, getting runners in from third, etc. I guess the real bottom line is "whatever works." Which of course varies from case to case. The old Bill James postseason wisdom was that HRs are the ticket, since you face good pitching and get so few hits. So back to you, Elias, keep crunching those numbers...

      Who will pay Burnes $400M this offseason?

      By Bemorewins · Posted

      First, the had a jump in 23’ given how terrible they had been previously, which conditions many fans in the marketplace not to care. They simple weren’t relevant for years. So one very good regular season will not undue years of being bad/irrelevant and treating your customers terribly. Next, I think they missed an opportunity in the offseason by not doing enough by way of big/bold attention grabbing moves. Now I acknowledge that this was most likely due to the ownership flux/transition. I believe they got an attendance/marketplace engagement boost when they changed owners and when they traded for Burnes. However, I believe we would have seen more engagement attendance with say a big Gunnar extension and/or bringing in a big time FA.   IMO this would have created more buzz before the season (say around the time people make season tix decisions - IMO before Christmas is when some people make those bigger purchases). All of this is to say, that it will take time and effort on the organizations part because of how bad of a stain that the Angeloses left. I still have friends and colleagues who refuse to support the Orioles and attend games due to the damage that was done. Rubenstien & co are not going to be able to undo 30 years of awfulness overnight. But IMO it is not enough to simply call it “a new chapter”. They have to make new/different actions to distinguish themselves from who the Orioles were/used to be under the Angelos regime.

      Just checking in on Gameday, Yankees looking incredibly vulnerable.  Should be the Os out there.  Super lame.  Whichever team wins this series I hope gets knocked out by CLE or DET.

      If the franchise were better, the fan base would be too.  It’s been a rough 40 years.
