The Pirates have won 12 out of their last 14 games.

The Tigers have lost 8 in a row, and 11 out of their last 13.

Two weeks ago, both of those scenarios would have seemed unlikely ...... not necessarily "shocking", but unlikely.

It's a long season, and while this Orioles team is flawed, it is far from a bad team ........ presuming their demise is far too premature.

They didn't win 5 straight, but they went 4-1 overall.

And they did it by taking one game at a time (while simultaneously playing some good baseball.)

When weams started this thread, he asked for 5 wins in a row, but the Orioles had to settle for winning 4 out of 5.

The Orioles just did it again ...... they have won 4 out of their last 5. O:clap3:

Make that 5 out of 6, for only the second time this season.

For what it's worth and because I found basic number crunching a good way to procrastinate....

During the current "5 of last 6," O's averaged 3.67 versus giving up 1.83. Six (awful) games prior to that, O's averaged 2.33 while giving up 4.5. MW returned 6/5 (last 5 games)...O's averaged 3.8 and gave up 1.8. I am a CJ fan, but something intangible about MW's presence can't be denied. Granted, these numbers are including the White Hot Red Sox bats (wink wink)....just putting it out there. Let's go O's!

Make that 6 out of 7 ...... for the first time this season.

4 straight wins ...... for the first time this season.

A series sweep ....... for the first time this season.

Also, AJ is HITTING! Anyone think that Adam's breaking out of a slump is coincidentally coincident with our run?

Jones is crushing. He got a couple days off for his injuries to heal. David Lough made that possible. This is all because of David Lough.

Yes, but since we lost all the games David Lough started in CF, anyone could have done it. Filling in only matters if we win.

    • Baseball Reference adjusts for quality of offenses faced, park factor, and team defense. Orioles team dWAR is 1.0; White Sox is -4.7. First guess is Fedde is getting a lot of credit for achieving the same run prevention in front of inferior fielders. Burnes has faced KCx2, Was, Mil, Tam, Sea, Torx2, Bosx2, Oak, Chw, NYY, LA. Fedde has faced KCx2, Was, Mil, Tam, Sea, Tor, Bal, Min, CLEx2, Ari, STL, and Det. Doesn't seem like a huge difference there. So it's probably the fielding adjustment. Is the White Sox stadium especially hitter-friendly?
    • Rizzo just got hurt. Bad throw by 1B caused a collision at 1B. Rizzo while safe bumped into P and fell on ground.    He was grabbing his wrist/hand. Left game.    Red Sox are also in process of blowing the lead. 
    • I’ll agree and disagree. It’s not so important with this number of games left to juggle pitchers around since you are still playing the long game.     Bye teams going 3-5 in the DS have shown it’s not an impossible hill to climb. That said I think both teams still value winning the division. 
    • I totally agree. Some are still stuck in the mindset that we're a bad team. 
    • That's good.  Will give him something to do while he heals.
    • Huh? He's on pace to start under 100 games at Catcher.
    • Keith Law has him going late 1st round and doesn’t sound like a fan.   26. New York Yankees: Christian Moore, 2B, Tennessee Moore has probably performed his way into the first round, even though the underlying tools and instincts don’t support it. He’s hit 23 homers and has a .380/.446/.774 line (through Monday) as part of the Vols’ loaded lineup, where five hitters already have 15 or more homers. I could also see them on Ryan Waldschmidt or Jordan. Baseball America’s most recent mock had him going 19.  Some reservations about his defense. 19. Mets — Christian Moore, 2B, Tennessee Moore’s offensive consistency in his three years with Tennessee is impressive. He’s posted a 1.000 OPS or better in each season, has hit over .300 in each season and has managed double-digit homers in each season—with a career-best 28 homers in 2024. He did that while cutting his strikeout rate from 24-25% to 14.5%. There are real questions with how much he’ll be able to pick it at second base. Still, he has one of the more proven bats in the class and is getting tons of top-20 buzz.
