Orioles win; Yankees lose


wildcard

10 up in the wildcard.  2 games ahead of our pace last year.  I will never again take winning for granted even though for 15 years in my youth (1969-1983) they had the best overall record in the majors.  This may be the most fun team they've ever had, and we are not done improving.  Enjoy this.

2 Homer night for Judge, though.  And a position player pitched for the Yanks.  

The Yankees have two guys Soto and Judge carrying their offense pretty much no one else other the Volpe is much of a threat imo.  Stanton gets hot here and there but most time he is below average.  Rizzo is shell of self, D.J. Always hurt and Torres has never lived up to hype and rookie start.

Two Yankee stadium HRs for Judge and one off a burned-out Yarborough who throws 87 and pitched multiple innings.

Extremely top heavy team.  If Soto misses any extended period of time it's going to hurt.

Yankees are 1-5 vs the Orioles and Dodgers and 44-16 vs everyone else.   

And the Orioles are 1-5 against the Cardinals and A’s and 40-15 vs. everyone else.   What of it?

    • Making some changes on the biz end of things.  Sounds like Bader is gone from his role too..which is great because he’s awful.
    • I love the wall. Love it. I think every Major League ballpark should have dimensions like that. By and large teams build parks with much smaller dimensions than a century ago, despite the players being dramatically bigger, stronger, faster athletes. It makes no sense. The game would be improved with much larger outfields. It would emphasize speed and athleticism over endless lineups of slow sluggers.
    • Yes, so hes a FA, the Discussion should now turn to what Elias or anybody else might offer next year. and it's tough because at 34 he's almost a one year wonder. But I do know this our season came back from trouble all year and Big Al was there to help many times. 
    • We all know you think you're passionate about your team and your ideas. but the way you continually insult people whose ideas you don't agree with, or who disagree with you, is incredibly childish.   It's a form of cyber-bullying.   I'd like to think you're better than that, and wonder why more people don't call you out on it.  Maybe they know it won't change anything? Is it not possible to disagree without having to insult either the person or their thoughts?  I know it's hard to self-reflect and realize that you constantly do this, and maybe make a change for the better, but I kind of expect some insults are now headed my way for trying to make this place a bit less hostile.  
    • We'll see Rubenstein talks a good game, but actions speak louder than words. Also it's on Elias to be willing to make a splash if the right (but also pricey) player become available and wants to be an Oriole. I was never big on an Adley extension even last year with the way catchers age. Gunnar is a player you absolutely lock up to an early contact extension assuming he is even open to it.
    • I think for almost all owners payroll matters more than winning. Even teams like the Yankees are careful with how they go into penalty.
    • For sure. That's why the Hyde quote implies he is a free agent.
