Sorry for coming in late, but am I the ONLY one who thought Abreu should've been struck out? The 2-0 pitch was a strike...and so was the 3-1 pitch. :cussing:

Yeah they were all in the same spot. Even abreu yelled when the one pitch was a ball, then the exact same pitch was a strike. Ramon and abreu were giving the umpire hell.

Did Girardi stay out there long enough to throw Jhonson off his game ? Why the he!! did the upm allow that ?

It was just your basic I'm-getting-tossed fit. Nothing special about it.

What's the ump supposed to do, call the cops and get him locked up?

Compared to Earl or Billy Martin, it was just a little flash in the pan. NBFD.

      This.  I brought this up before. Sure he has some bad 0-1 calls go against him and next thing you know he is 0-2 just swinging away. But look at the pitches thrown to him at #9 and then go look at the pitches thrown to Gunnar, and it's a joke.  He is getting painted on every corner.

      This is the same conversation we had last year about Gunner. People wanting to send him down, he’s not ready, etc. Yes he is struggling, but he is also not getting much to hit and the umpires have had an expanded strike zone on him for whatever reason. He needs to be more aggressive early, like Gunnar early last year, he is seeing too many pitches. When Gunnar got aggressive, he took off.  He will figure it out and I’m sure there are hitting coaches and tape with advanced data he is going over things with. I’m sure the coaches are seeing the bad calls and are telling him not to get frustrated and stick to the process. I don’t know another 9 hitter that has been beared down on like he has been. He has really had some tough pitching and bad calls.  He is going to be fine, just let him work through it.

      Holliday 2024 fWAR expectations

      The Orioles are favorites to win the AL this season. It is their best shot to win a WS they've had this century. I'm excited Holliday is getting a shot. I think they should stick with it. But if he needs to be sent back down after another month, then so be it. He's 20 years old. It's not the end of the world.

      I took the under. I would have said something in the 2.5 range prior to the last week, but I think it's going to be a tall order to get there(2.5 or 3.0+) now.    He's as talented as they come, but I've never felt like he would outperform Gunnar in regards to WAR. They'll be an excellent 1-2 punch though.

      It sort of feels like it's setting in for these hitters that, oh right, we're probably down here for the long haul again this season. Holliday called up, everyone healthy on the ML team, Cowser and Westburg playing well...  Time for these guys to mentally adjust to the grind of AAA ball again.

      These are just scrambled letters characters and numbers. What do they all mean? Is it from a computer programmer also the earlier post too?
