Yankees struck out 18 times last night. I've tried to find out the most they've ever struck out in a 9 inning game, but this has to be close. Rizzo 5 times. I'll pick on Rizzo again. Infield in, runner on third, O'Hearn at bat...pulling everything foul..Rizzo playing 15 feet off the line and O'Hearn screams a liner down the line. What are they thinking? Yanks may have a huge payroll, but don't play well IMO.

As an Albany Os fan, you have got to be loving this!  Redemption!  I’m from NY also and have a lot of Yankees friends.  This is so sweet!

  Beating the Yankees is always great and we can enjoy it without rubbing other people's noses in it

Speak for yourself.  

The sense of entitlement kills me.  As does having been to numerous Yankees (AND SOX) games at Camden Yards where their fans invade.  

I'm not dancing on anyone's grave prematurely here, mind you, but if the standings hold and the Yankees do wind up in last place while we're in first, there's going to be a lot of **** talking.  A LOT.

I think the ESPN guys were talking about this as Cano worked in striking out the side. I believe 17 (second out of the ninth) tied their franchise record, and the third out then broke it.

Now comes the most difficult question for an Orioles fan:   The Yankees are effectively 10 games back of us.   Do we actually root for them this week?  The very thought makes me ill, but we have to give it serious consideration.

Nah, too soon. Two months of baseball left.

Thanks. I tired of the announcers and left. That put an exclamation point on the game. Lot of pitches and pitchers, team effort, but still sweet.

We certainly root for them against the Rays these 3 days!      If we get it anytime next few days, I was thinking we could use an Orioles win; Yankees win thread for novelty's sake.

NYY already had to scratch Domingo German tonight for an emergency AAA replacement.

      The Difference between the O's and other Playoff teams

      By Warehouse · Posted

      He was allowed to face LHP.  My post wasn’t disagreeing with your post.  I was saying that not only did we let him face LHP, we let him do so despite not having much success against LHP.  I was pushing back against the narrative that we needlessly platooned Cowser.  Not only did we not platoon him, there is a reasonable argument that we should have platooned more than we did. We needed to play one of Mullins and Cowser in CF. Cowser mostly got the call vs. LHP because he was much better against LHP in the first half of the year, but this flipped in the second half.

      rWAR Year of birth leaders after 2024 - notable Orioles

      By Just Regular · Posted

      From Adley to Basallo, I think Elias has eight Bats I hope we get to see all take 600 PA simultaneously some season. Adley was born in 1998, and until he arrived Elias Orioles baseball was bad by design.    For flavor, leaders of those teams like 1994-1997 births Mullins, Santander, Hays and Mountcastle are all between 10th and 20th among bats born their year.   Your team might be drafting Jackson Holliday if they are your club's best players in a rebuild, unless you have great pitching, which...haha, we know Elias' game. MLB Baseball is mostly played by guys 24-32.    286 batters cleared 300 PA in 2024 - about 12% were 33 and up by Fangraphs seasonal age assignments, about 8% were 23 and down. This is just a once a year post, but looking at Bats born from Adley's 1998 to Basallo's 2004, here's how the Orioles achievements compare with MLB's best by rWAR. 1998 - Adley is 4th 1999 - Westburg is 9th, and Kjerstad is 33rd 2000 - Cowser is 16th 2001 - Gunnar is 1st, and Mayo is nearly last, having dug a deep hole in his initial PA.    Trivia - Darell Hernaiz one of the 3 beneath Mayo.    Noelvi Marte dead last also has a PED suspension, d'oh. 2003 - Holliday is 4th - Minnesota the last weekend he got himself out of negative WAR territory. 2004 - Basallo is n/a as Chourio alone has played MLB from that birth year.    Basallo did log the most high minors experience of the 2004 births during the 2024 season. In 2025, Gunnar enters the 24-32 range as Judge departs it.     Cowser's improvement after an off-season a story of comfort for Holliday and Mayo - can they approach his ~3.5 win contribution? Strong, young teams - doing this exercise highlighted Adley's Orioles a little younger than the Braves and all their famous contract extensions.    Acuna, Albies and Riley were all born the year before Adley.   On the AL side of the competition, Yordan and Kyle Tucker also 1997 holding up a strong competitor, though not one that is young anymore.     Judge and Gerrit hoping Soto please stays.    Soto from 1998 - you have to reach back to 1994 for Correa, Bregman and C. Seager to find anyone ahead of him.

      Offseason Trade Pondering

      By Camden_yardbird · Posted

      The Orioles have a lot of flexibility both in terms of prospects, money and potential veterans that hold value. Vets - I could see the Orioles moving on from any of Mountcastle, Mullins, Urias, or O'Hearn. These players may hold the most potential to bullpen upgrades. Money - The Orioles will certainly spend this offseason and that more flexibility than they have had.  I would like to see 1 or 2 extensions, 1 high profile FA, and maybe 1 more solid addition. Prospects - I could see any of the big 4 going somewhere.  I really think the Orioles and Pirates match up really well.  The Pirates have a plethora of young pitchers and the Orioles have young hitters.  I wouldn't be surprised to see the two match up.

      Co-hitting coach Ryan Fuller, Fredi Gonzalez and Jose Hernandez let go

      The hitting philosophy works. That’s why they have been winning the last two years.     Plenty of runs scoring off HR’s in the playoffs.

      They would probably want two of Mayo, Basallo, Holliday, and Kjerstad, plus other pieces (likely at least one good pitching prospect, so someone like Povich or McDermott), for both Crochet and Robert.

      Other teams playoffs game thread

      I hadn't digested before today that Andrew Walters, college relief prospect Elias wasn't able to sign from the '22 draft, became a '23 Cleveland selection and is in their postseason bullpen in '24. It looks like the regular season results were pretty extreme effectively wild - 6/5 K/BB in 8.2 innings, but just 1 hit. Walters taking the extra year at Miami got himself up to nearly a $1M bonus.
