WGN's graphic just said that was the first triple of Roberts' career. I guess they tried to edit the caption for Torres' first career hit and forgot to change career to season.

And geez Mora is taking some chances on the basepaths today. That was CLOSE, although it didn't seem like it should have been with how hard he hit the ball.

OK I need your advice everyone, which food will help the O's the most?

I just finished the amazing shepherd's pie that I made so the main course is through. I've got...

-Utz sour cream and onion ruffle chips

-Pop secret homestyle popcorn

-Starbucks java chip coffee ice cream

Right now I'm leaning towards homestyle popcorn followed by java chip. Your thoughts? Oh wait, we just tied it up, should I hold off the eating as long as we're hot?

I would fast until the inning is over.

      Its always easier in hindsight, but letting Kyle Gibson go, could end up being a glaring error.

      Gibson signed very early in the offseason and was never really a true option of being brought back by Elias and co. If you want to go with someone they could have actually signed for depth then Michael Lorenzen would of made sense as a swingman as he had to wait forever to finally get a deal and it was a bargain for Texas at 4mill. Even then, would he have been fine signing here as a non guaranteed starter; hard to say but don’t think there was any attempt on the O’s to do so.

      Pick your 40 man roster (protect list) for Nov 20th.

      The Britton trade allowed the Yankees to trade some guys that would have been subjected to the 40 man crunch (Tate for example).

      You can get Pit/PA here. Scroll down to the Team Pitches Batting section and sort by Pit/PA. Lots of good stuff on that page.

      It will be interesting to see if a small July trade occurs in the style of the Rays or Dodgers with stuffed 40-man rosters. Michael Busch and Bryan Hudson having been guys the Dodgers moved along last winter for off 40 man types is a level  no one else is at, but if Orioles PD success rate stays high they may get closer than most of the other 29 clubs.    How many real keepers are on Delmarva right now?     How many of McDermott, Young, Johnson, Bright, De Leon, Baumeister, Forret, etc. become full time Orioles?

      It’s a good trade deadline question. It’s not super common, but looking ahead at 40-man roster crunch does affect the prospects who become available for teams with really deep 40-man rosters and strong upper level minors systems. For example, it almost certainly played a role in the Rays trading Seth Johnson. More recently, the Dodgers had some 40-man crunch this off-season and that motivated a handful of trades.  However, I don’t think the Orioles are to that point. They still have enough 40-man space for the prospects who will clearly need to be added.

      Correct.  I was never a big Mountcastle guy but I didn’t, to the best of my knowledge, say he wouldn’t make it, just that he wouldn’t be an 800-900 OPS type of guy.  Mountcastle’s hit tool (.293 minor league avg) has allowed him to overcome his chase tendencies.  Stowers (.263 minor league avg), I don’t believe, has as good a hit tool.  He’s going to have to hit 25+ homers, minimum, to be a .780 hitter.   He’s capable of it.  I’m just not as confident about it as you are.  I think he’s looked good both ways.

      Interesting.. I wonder if he could improve a bit by switching to a more aggressive approach, similar to the evolution Gunnar made last year.
