Raise your hand if you thought Wilson would put pitch Tilly tonight? That said, Tilly was about 1' or a standard outfield play away from having another win. It's a humbling game.

I'm not surprised in the least.

Excellent pitches will occasionally have bad games, and marginal pitchers will occasionally have good games ...... particularly when they come into a game in which their team is already down by a lot of runs.

I swear, the Orioles must lead the league in the number of pitches in the dirt swung at. And Chris Davis must be at the top of that list.]

I know he's always been a streaky hitter, but he's really hurting this team at the plate. He definitely needs to learn to be more patient. Not one pitch in that last at bat was a strike.

    • Good post. .926 OPS since coming back from the IL. We saw this with Mullins and Mateo last year trying to play through leg injuries. It affected them at the plate big time.  Edit - I missed the part about him being banged up again. Crap. 
    • Brach was specific in his analysis he saw Vlad targeting RF all afternoon long, even though it looked like Povich was trying to get in some.     Granted Vlad is an unusual RHH.
    • Scouts and stats - those two guys have a pretty gigantic contrast though. Povich and Irvin are I think kind of similar to Santander and Kjerstad or O'Hearn and Mayo roles wise for the ballclub.
    • Cowser’s bat will come around. It’s a bonus that he’s decent enough to play CF. He must’ve worked really hard in the offseason. That’s probably why we saw Hilliard get the quick hook in ST. The FO saw. 
    • Yohan Ramirez surviving on the Dodgers.  Last 6. 6 IP, 3 H, 1 BB, 3 K, 0 runs. Mike Baumann.  Last 5 5 IP, 2 H, 1 unearned run, 1 BB, 5 K   You never know.  
    • I had a heck of a time figuring out where to post the thread even. The only reason they are even in the tournament is because they are hosting. Sounds like they have a good shot to make it to the next round. This format of Cricket is a lot more conducive to upsets.
    • Very excited about Cowser.  Kid is a player and I think the summer is going to be big for him.  My biggest take away on the season to date is how good the four young stars on this team are and that they play right up the middle: C, SS, CF and, if you wanted, 2B.  Once Holliday is here, and Westburg is at 3B, this team will only have to fill the corner OF, 1B, DH and bench spots.  There are copious options for that now and they will soon include Mayo, Kjerstad and Basallo.  And, yes, Mayo may stick at 3B and Basallo can catch.  I know there is discussion of how well, or not, Elias has done drafting after the 1st round, and that he won't have high picks going forward, but this offense is set for so long.  Just keep the pitching strong and look out.
