Encouraging game tonight

[weams]

Just four seasons ago, in our 14th consecutive year of losing baseball, our record was 45-69 after 114 games. How miserable this season has been is a matter of perspective. If we'd had this record in 2012 (we were three games better), we'd have been giddy with the improvement. Coming off a trip to the ALCS, not so much.

This is misery? It will be September in two weeks. And we are a game and half out! Then Buck gets to play with a 35 man roster.

Despite how miserable the season has been, we're in position to jump at a playoff spot if some guys will start playing as they're capable, especially the SP.

Miserable?

Miserable??? Really?

2010 was miserable.

2005 was miserable. Palmeiro.

One could argue this season is downright intriguing.

3 consecutive winning seasons (going on 4) has increased Orioles fans' expectations and standards.

That's a good thing.

And the 13th inning walk off didn't even make the morning summary. MLB does hate The O's.

Other than the Kemp cycle (which is meaningless), I wouldn't put a 4th place team vs a 5th place team over any of those other very meaningful events.

Took 13 innings to beat the worst team in the AL

starting the staff ace against a guy with a 2-9 record in AAA.

Coming off a full day rest with Oakland playing on Thursday and arriving late to Baltimore

Encouraged? Not

Good morning! I tried talking with you last night after you showed up after what must have been a very long and strenuous day at work, but you just hit and run. How is your morning so far?

Yeah, he was one-and-done last night in the game thread:

Well time to watch Matusz lose another game ... this should be fun.

Probably just a coincidence that he exited the thread after Matusz pitched a shutout inning, including 2 strikeouts.

Yep. Good play increases expectations. When there is a constant struggle on what should be a good team, there is a lot of frustration and can make for a miserable season. Just because 2010 was so awful doesn't mean that this year can't have misery.

I am miserably every time the team loses.

We get to enjoy it for only one day. Miguel pitches tonight against a guy who baffled us last time. Im still enjoying last night. I have low expectations for tonight.

Post a thread just make certain we know your concerns against this juggernaut squad.

I think the Orioles will be fine. Just cut the right player or wire.

I feel bad about not seeing the Farrell lymphoma thing. The way it was word wrapped, it just seemed like an incomplete sentence that I didn't pay attention to. It was only after a friend on FB mentioned it today that I went back and re-read this.

I heard that on 98 Rock on the way home tonight.
