This Oriole team has much better talent. Gunner Henderson, Jordan Westberg, Adley, Santander, Grayson, and Corbin Burnes don’t have a 4-32 streak in them. Even if they fill the rest of the positions with OH posters. I think a rotation of Burnes, Grayson, and Kremer as your top 3 is a better than 500 team the rest of the way at least. The jury is out on Povich but if he pitches as well as he has the Orioles with this offense will have a good chance to win when he starts. Is the team good enough to win it all? They need help most likely. One consistent starter and a couple of better arms in the bullpen. This team is going to the playoffs. To think they are not at this point is based on emotion and not anything else. -
It’s funny that people are wanting to bring back Tanner Scott and his 6.1 walk rate, but balking at McDermott and his 5.5 walk rate. I’m leery of McDermott too, but as they say, “any port in a storm,” so no reason not to give him a try. -
It sort of makes no sense, his GB% is much higher than last year but his HR/FB went from 10% last year to 26% this year. Walks are way up too. -

Suarez and Irvin were always going to regress. You didn’t think they would be sub 3 ERA pitchers did you? Irvin is a solid guy for the back of the rotation but that’s what he is, a back of rotation guy. They are pieces you need to eat innings and keep you in most games but these aren’t world beaters on the mound. Suarez is a good story but there is a reason he has had the career he has had. The fear that we will slowly sink is an unfounded and irrational fear. The team has to get better and they have to improve on obvious needs but we don’t need to go overboard here. All teams have holes they need to address. -
Good point. Every now and then he looks like vintage Cano from early last year but he’s no longer trustworthy. -
Speaking of scar tissue, a review of our storied/checkered past shows an uglier picture than we like to recall... St. Louis Browns 1902-1953: 52 years, 1 WS (1944), loss. Baltimore Orioles 1954-1983: 30 years, 6 WS (3-3), plus 2 more ALCS losses. Orioles 1984-2023: 40 years, 6 playoffs losses (1 WC, 2 ALDS, 3 ALCS). -
Cano is having an awful season. He's been worth -0.3 fWAR with a 4.62 FIP. I know you have to use the arms you have, but you can't utilize Cano like it's 2023, he's terrible and should be the lowest-leverage reliever out of the pen right now. He's carrying the same BABIP as last year, but his results are awful.
