Potential Rain Out on Thursday

Recommended Posts

If there's a significant amount of rain, and nothing (essentially) for either team to play for, Jeter should speak up and allow the game to be called. Because the idea that the playoff bound Orioles should be inconvenienced in any way for the sake of Derek Jeter's final home game (not game, mind you, but home game) is nothing short of offensive.

---- the Yankees, and ---- their "captain."

FROM YESTERDAY'S GAME THREAD (9/23):

I'm hoping for one of 2 things.

A) Derek Jeter's final home game gets rained out on Thursday (and therefore will not made up, unless the Orioles finish the season 1/2 a game behind the Angels.)

OOOOOOOO OR

B) The Orioles beat the Yankees on Derek Jater's final home game at Yankee Stadium, and mathematically eliminate them.

Wish granted.

That's silly. You think Jeter has the ability to tell the powers that be MLB they

don't have to play a game?

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/...

AS HIGH PRESSURE SLIDES INTO THE NEW ENGLAND COAST...THE RAIN SHIELD

ASSOCIATED WITH A MID ATLANTIC COASTAL LOW IS SLOWLY PROPAGATING

NORTH THROUGH NORTHERN VIRGINIA. THEREFORE...HAVE KEPT DRY

CONDITIONS THROUGH THIS EVENING WITH INCREASE IN POPS LATE TONIGHT.

STILL LOOKING AT A GENERAL ONE TO TWO INCHES ALONG THE COAST WITH UP

TO AN INCH INLAND TONIGHT THROUGH TOMORROW...WITH THE BRUNT OF THIS

RAIN FALLING THURSDAY.

LOW TEMPERATURES TONIGHT WILL BE IN THE MID TO UPPER 50S INLAND AND

AROUND 60 DEGREES ALONG THE COAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT/...

A COASTAL SYSTEM WILL BE AFFECTING THE AREA ON THURSDAY WITH

RAINFALL AND GUSTY WINDS. THE COASTAL LOW WILL MOVE ALONG THE

COASTLINE THEN OFFSHORE DURING THE DAY ON THURSDAY. THE HEAVIEST

RAINFALL IS EXPECTED TO BE THURSDAY MORNING INTO THURSDAY AFTERNOON.

THE RAINFALL SHOULD BEGIN TO DISSIPATE LATER DURING THE DAY

AS THE STRONGER LIFT AND MOISTURE DISSIPATES. SO WE WILL HAVE POPS

LOWERING LATER IN THE DAY. WITH THE CLOUD COVER AND RAIN ACROSS THE

AREA...TEMPERATURES WILL BE IN THE LOWER 60S INLAND AND MID TO UPPER

60S ALONG THE COAST.

ON THURSDAY NIGHT...ALTHOUGH THE LOW WILL BE WELL OFFSHORE...THERE

COULD BE LINGERING SHOWERS...MAINLY ACROSS OUR FAR EASTERN

AREAS...WHICH SHOULD DIMINISH THROUGH THE NIGHT AS THE MID-LEVEL LOW

MOVES EAST AS WELL.

I feel like I'm on the Accuweather forums. Let's complain about how Upton blew the call.

    • I thought Chisholm missed home too. They didn’t appeal tho I don’t think.
    • Now run scores and Yanks take lead. 
    • Inexcusable missed call in NY. Review Cleo at showed Chisholm out at 2nd. They upheld safe call. 
    • 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...
    • 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.
