I wouldn't go that far. He did ok considering the conditions, but the BBs and lack of Ks is concerning. Still better than a DCab blowup though.

That's why I said nice outing and not outstanding. For Daniel this was a nice outing. Considering the weather conditions, and the fact that he was able to get himself out of jams several times.

God forbid Trembley makes a wrong decision. I should never question the next coming of Earl Weaver... :rolleyes:

Please, I know we want Trembley to be the greatest manager since Earl, but right now things need to be shaken up a bit. Mora and Millar aren't producing and they are in critical spots in the lineup. Bradford and Walker haven't been doing their jobs. Sarfate is being used way too often and Aquino was used far too little.

No, your problem mainly is your annoying and you share no insight other than to whine whine whine about everything. Obviously, Manny Ramirez should be hitting fourth and Micheal Young should be in the 2 hole. Mora and Millar should be in the O's starting lineup day in and day out pretty much; you can shuffle around the arangment of the hitters all you want but it really isn't going to affect the number of runs scored. Millar's still going to bat w runners in scoring position- and still make outs at least occasionally- and then we'll get to hear you whine about it. Yeah.

Bradford has an era under 2 this year; I'd say that's pretty effective. He isn't invulnerable but in the situation DT just brought him in for he is W/O A DOUBT our best option. I'm too busy to look it up right now but Sarfate's pitched what 1 or twice in the past week? That's way too much, you're right. And Aquino isn't being used because 1) he sucks and 2) hes the 13th! man on the pitching staff and we've been in a lot of close games.

DT isn't perfect and neither are any of our players. You're propensity to whine about everything is extremely annoying and sheds absolutely no light on anything under the sun other than you ridiculous nature.

I cant give you rep for this but I agree whole heartedly.

If Vasquez comes out for the 9th, this game is over. If Ozzie makes the mistake many managers make and brings in someone else when a pitcher is clearly in control, then we have a shot.

I think we've had some luck against Jenks in the past. Not sure what Vasquez's pitch count is, but I'd be surprised if he comes back out for the 9th inning.

    • I would have loved Mayo to get reps at 1B in 2023.  
    • I'd love for Mayo to get reps at 1B. 
    • I generally agree with this. However, Mayo reportedly got extra pre-game practice at first yesterday and when he entered the game he played 1B with Rivera sticking at 3B.  So those positions could be flipped in your left pitcher lineup. 
    • Forget .300, the O's don't even have somebody hitting 285. Gunnar is the closest at 282.  You look around the AL competitive teams, here are their hitters batting 280 or more: Yankees: Judge (321), Soto (285) Red Sox: Yoshida (290), Wong (287), Duran (287), Refsnyder (284) Twins: Correa (310), Miranda (292) Royals: Witt (331), Fermin (286)...Perez is close at 275 Astros: Alvarez (308), Diaz (301), Altuve (301), Pena is close at 271 The Tigers have none. The Mariners have none. The best hitters AVG wise on the O's this year:  Gunnar - 282 Westburg - 269 Mountcastle - 265 Adley - 254 O'Hearn - 254 Cowser - 242 Santander - 241 Mullins - 233 And it's not like this team is a patient team.  I think the issue here is the young guys are doing what young guys do. They struggle. Cowser was gangbusters, then bad, then gangbusters, then bad. Holliday was bad, gangbusters, now he's bad. Mayo has just been bad. And the top of the lineup rarely hits on all cylinders. It's like 1 of them hit each day and that's it. 
    • I was shocked when he wasnt claimed the first time so good news for him that he gets to continue pitching in the MLB I guess. Elias clearly only saw him as AAA depth at this point .
    • Would have much rather kept Irvin in the system over Burch Smith or Kimbrel. I hated when they DFAd him the first time, and disliked it a second time.  It wouldn't shock me to see Cole Irvin have a longer, effective career from here on out than Trevor Rogers, for example. 
    • I understand keeping Kimbrel as a face-saving move. But why Smith? Is he a guy you want to use with anything on the line? Is there a belief he can be made over to help after this year?
