Just brutal. Who would have thought after that double header shutout sweep that we might be at 500 or below going into the All Star Break. With Zimmerman and Scherzer due to face us this weekend against our putrid offense it is indeed in play. I need a drink.

Folks, you are looking at the bottom of the Orioles season. I realize theres plenty of baseball to be played, but this team isn't going anywhere.

After the Orioles swept that Cleveland doubleheader many people said the Orioles were the best in the division, Things change weekly in the AL East.

Im glad you know that. Guessing you also knew we weren't going anywhere when Machado and Wieters got hurt last year too

No Scherzer and Fister and Jordan or whoever they throw on Friday are not great.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      I don’t think this matters. I think you get value where you can. The Rays have been willing trade partners in the past when it was clear they weren’t contending. Right now they are 4 games out of the last slot but have like 5 teams above them. Can they get it? Sure but it’s not that likely and in the past they’ve been realistic in their down type seasons.

      I think Norby is going to be a very good MLB offensive player. I’m ok trading him but not for 1/2 season rental types.

      6-man rotation is officially happening

      Yeah I think they need to staggar the lefties in the rotation order. R-R-L-R-L like that.

      Trading Mayo Kjerstad and Povich for one guy to become a relief pitcher is nuts.

      We don't need starting pitchers. We need Relief Pitchers. We don't need average Relief Pitchers, we need consistent high leverage/high K Relief Pitchers.

      Os claim Levi Stoudt

      If you feel comfortable putting Aiken and Baker (or even Tate) in during an elimination series, that's your prerogative. But I do not. Too inconsistent, which is the same reason why Mike Baumann pitched himself off the active roster. when spot was needed for returning starters off the IL. Currently Coulombe is on IL so we can't even count on one of our best. Cano has regressed from last season. We've also witnessed last season how Webb broke down from over use and was ineffective in the playoff series against Texas. Perez goes in streaks of either really good or concernedly bad (he loses his command). Akin's problem is he leaves the ball over the heart of the plate and he doesn't have good enough stuff to get away with it. They're meatballs. We might get some good times from Baker now that he's up, but I would only expect a month or 2 at best from him before he returns to old habits. And Suarez is a starter who wants to be a starter. Who knows if he will go back to the bullpen? He'll have to go deeper into games if he wants to stay in the rotation, otherwise, I think he should be in the bullpen. But that's not what he is right now in this moment. He's a starter with a ERA in the 1s.
