Don't forget, next Friday night is our first Hangout night. Great pregame festivities at Game Bar and Grill with free parking (just 10-15 minute walk or can catch the shuttle), drink and food specials, Orioles talk round table where you can be involved and more. Get $22 tickets at www.orioles.com/tix/hangout and sit in our section with our rabid O's fans. Don't forget to wear your orange!

We'd really love to get our Hangouters out to this event. This is something new and we want to have a great showing at our pregame event. It's a great place to meet other Hangouters before the game and even if you are not sitting in our section you can still get the Hangouters experience by coming to the pregame. Plus, FREE PARKING by showing your Hangout section tickets.

We're going to give a prize out to whatever Hangouter brings the most friends and family members to GAME bar grill for our pregame. Just come and see either me or weams and tell us how many you brought. We plan on having name tags so you can put on your handles so you can now put a name to a face.

Let us know if you are coming and how many you may be bringing!

Roll Call:

Tony +4

Weams +1

Scottiebaseball +1

I'm going to that game but a friend of mine had tickets so I won't be sitting in the Hangout section. But I think my friend and I are meeting outside the ballpark shortly before the game, so I just hop to go to the pregame festivities at The Game.

And I will definitely be in Hangout seats for the next Hangout night the following weekend.

Glad to hear it Steve! So you'll come down to the pregame event?

5Pm..

Hopefully we'll see more people on here say they are coming. People always ask about these nights then they don't support our events. It's very unfortunate. It's going to be hard to justify discounted tickets, food, free parking, etc if people can't make a few nights a year.

Tremendous, which section of the OH section is everyone seated at? Will do my best to leave work early and at minimum make it to the game.

Will try to meet at the pre-game as well. Hope traffic from Fairfax won't be as tough as usual.

I will try to swing by for the pregame at Game. Picking my grandfather up from BWI at 9, so probably not worth grabbing a game ticket.

If anybody is coming to the game but not the pregame and is looking for free parking, I can offer my visitor's pass in Ridgely's Delight. Shoot me a PM and we can trade info. Please don't steal my visitor's pass.

      Any Interest in Kevin Pillar or Aaron Hicks?

      By sportsfan8703 · Posted

      I’ll take a great defender that’s lost a step over a player that has low baseball IQ. Also, you can’t tell me that Ryan McKenna has better current defensive athleticism than Pillar or Hicks.  It’s time to let the “Ferrari” go. Hicks was a bench OF for an O’s team that won 100 games last year. Pillar was a bench OF for a Braves team that won 100 games last year. McKenna blew a catch last year that cost us a game, and had blown a catch this year that has cost us a game.  What advantage does McKenna have other than being “homegrown”?

      Statcast has Pillar with ~ 3 fielding run value over ~400 innings in 2023 and McKenna with a fielding run value of ~0 last year over ~ 350 innings.  Pillar’s xwOBA was .295 and McKenna had an xwWOBA of .276.     I think it likely does not make sense to pick up Pillar for a few days before Hays’ return, but statcast does show some minor advantages over McKenna.

      Yes, I would let him walk unless he for some reason gave the club a significant discount which I think there is zero chance of. I'm not a huge fan of armchair GM-ing.  Especially with the ownership change, not knowing how that will affect payroll, extensions, etc.  It's Elias' job to figure out how to fill the spots and so far he's done pretty well at it.

      Umpire Scorecard Thread

      By DrungoHazewood · Posted

      Before the great purge in the 1990s* the umps more-or-less did whatever they wanted. They'd interview an ump and he'd say things like "the strike zone is what I say the strike zone is." There would be talk of reforming things and the umps and their union basically just said no. We're the umpires, goldang it, and we control what goes on. Wrong call? Missed something? Bullcrap, we're the best umps in the world, how dare you question us? And until HDTV and cameras everywhere, and tracking systems in the last ~20 years it was often hard to tell just how good or bad they were.  There was that famous Eric Gregg game in the 1997 NLCS where he just decided the strike zone was going to be three feet wide and Livan Hernandez (career K rate of 5.9, never struck out more than 11 in any other game in his long career) struck out 15. It just happened, no consequences, nothing. But now, with Statcast everywhere, even in the minors, and HD broadcasts of every game, it's a whole new world. Umpires have been graded on balls/strikes for many years. They just accept that the whole world knows more-or-less objectively if they were right or wrong in near real time. They can't hide. Truly terrible, belligerent, rogue umps don't exist like they did when I was a kid. That's why Angel and one or two others stand out. But they'd have been mid-pack or better in the 1990s. There can still be improvements, but umpiring is better than it's ever been. * Remember there was some kind of work stoppage and the umps resigned en masse, and the owners called their bluff and accepted the resignations. When the umps came crawling back the owners only brought back the ones they liked.)

      His command of all of his pitches is not great, but they seemed improved from last year. Some of the stuff is real good, but he still looks more like a potential bullpen guy than a starter to me.

      Why would we trade a starting pitcher prospect for a reliever?
