vs. RED SOX, 4/20


OFFNY

Recommended Posts

Manny's error was a tough play. Probably shouldn't have even been an error. He usually makes that play, but I'm not going to bash him for it.

No way. That was ABSOLUTELY an error. He could have waited on it and had a much easier time fielding it.. instead he charged it hoping to just step on 3rd. He looked a little lackadaisical trying to pick that hop.

If this game is suspended to be completed when the Orioles are in Boston again and in the meantime the Orioles try to send Garcia down and Boston reclaims him and then place him on their 25 man roster...can Garcia enter the game again for Boston? Just askin...

That happening would almost make this game worth it.

This is already an official game. It won't be suspended.

Yeah he made a mistake taking that step forward, ended up in no man's land trying to one-hop it as if he were a foot closer. Should have relied on his cannon for an arm and stayed back. Split second decision though, hard to get on him for it.

Which is more likely, the scenario where Boston reclaims Garcia and puts him on their 25-man roster, or the Orioles tying this game and requiring a suspension?

What if he comes in for the Sox and gives up 7 runs and gets the win and the loss? :eektf:

An unofficial game doesn't get suspended, it gets wiped away. Only tie games that have gone at least 5 innings get suspended.

It doesn't have to be a tie. The Orioles just have to tie or take the lead in the top half and have play stopped before the bottom half of the inning is complete.

    • Ding ding ding. It’s the crab pot mentality. Most will drag you back to the bottom rather than allow others to climb out to freedom. It’s the old misery loves company.   Sadly for my Orioles fans, they have used this misery as a warm blanket and have even rationalized their sorrow by way of linking up with other sorrowful fans. It’s a sort of companionship in misery. Suddenly the orioles start to do well, as if this wasn’t the plan by Elias all along, and many orioles fans are still clinging to their long held beliefs that the shoe will drop, that the end is nigh, and that success will all come crashing down.   After all, failure is what they have grown accustomed to, it’s all they know, their world is an abject failure, so when the team they love suddenly starts doing well…they have no idea what to do. They lash out. They find fault where there is none, and their extreme uncomfort becomes full display to all those who might say “yeah but we’re good now, things are good now” but that simply can not be so. There must be something wrong. The shoe will drop. The loss will happen. My life is not fulfilled without the thumping of the chest from the loser Oriole who proclaims to his tribe, “see, I told you so!” sad sacks of shit, the lot of them!
    • Another MLB player, once a teammate and friend of Ohtani, maybe tied to gambling. I didn't bother to try to understand the exact timeline or tie to Ohtani, which seems to be just as friends, but here it is for anyone interested. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/40166891/angels-david-fletcher-bet-bookie
    • Not for someone who has money riding on him winning the award.
    • Well, now that we’ve established the hitting sucks, is it a good time to complain that this pitching is obviously over performing and will crash and burn any day now?
    • The bullpen has much more depth this year than last year but it just feels like you don’t know who will be the guy each night.  Last year it was get to the 8th and you knew it was Cano and Bautista and lights out.  This year it doesn’t seem to be set roles especially with Kimberly strugggles and out as clasper for now possibly.  I also think Hyde gets a lot of grief about how he handles the bullpen but I think he has been great at looking at the game situation and with who he wants facing what guys.  Cano might come in the 6th one night then close the next, same with Webb or even Coulumbe.  I know a lot of it is analytics but as a group they make a plan and seem to stick with it instead of some managers that have 7 inning guy an 8th inning guy and closer and don’t deviate much.
