True to form......

I didn't want to disappoint you... ;)

Seriously though, not sure why they are so tired with all the off days but maybe somebody at a certain NY female performing establishment might know...

These guys need a forced day or a couple days off apparently because they couldn't hit the broadside of a barn right now, if they decided to even swing...

Sigh.

Do you ever look at the big picture before going reactionary?

It's one thing to swing and miss because of timing. It's another thing to watch three strikes sail by you that were all in the zone and not even attempt to swing...

Roberts last AB was inexcusable and pathetic...

And I thought the dumbest reactionary thread of the night would be bashing Trembley for not going to Sherrill after the Abreu walk.

Always expect the absurd!

Give it time Mackus, someone could still start a Trembley needs to be Fired thread.

Seriously, who cares? IT IS A SLUMP!!!!

THEY AREN'T SEEING THE BALL WELL!!!!

Are you freaking kidding me?

After every loss, i say JTrea should be banned from the board for 12 hours. This is just ridiculous.

SLUMP SLUMP SLUMP SLUMP SLUMP SLUMP SLUMP SLUMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I almost agree with Jtrea here, but we could say that about the whole team over the last two games.

This loss hurts...a lot more than last night's game.

I'm actually encouraged. The O's went into Yankees Stadium and went toe to toe with the evil empire. The difference between taking the series and dropping the series was a 1-run loss on a bad throw to home after a weak line drive to left.

    • Kjerstad does not have to play every day for him to be here.  He should be able to start 3+ times a week. He’s hitting right now so I would get him in the lineup immediately and see if there is any carry over from AAA.  
    • They needed to replace Hays and he's already on the 40. I don't think it goes much deeper.
    • A lot of people didn’t like this signing.  It was a few bad outings last year but otherwise, he was very good. He will have some bumps in the road but he’s a very capable guy still.
    • I agree. It has to be anticipating Mountcastle being out a little longer, maybe they will IL him too if his knee doesn’t improve quickly. But if Hays is out the minimum 10 days (one of which already passed), maybe Kjerstad gets 3 starts from Mountcastle and 1-2 from rest days for others, available to pinch hit the rest. That wouldn’t be so bad. 
    • I trust the O’s and Elias’ handling of him.  Similar to Decosta and the Ravens, they seem to make more good decisions than other clubs do.     I think he can work it out at the major league level if they do.  Wouldn’t be worried if he got sent down to regain some confidence.
    • I don’t see Wells coming back to the rotation. That was never the plan to begin with. Also, I’m not sure it’s a given that Means can make effective starts at the Bug League level right now. He’s been legit terrible against AAA hitters on a pretty consistent basis so far this season. Now Bradish on the other hand, if he can return, he will probably bump one of Suarez or Irvin to the pen (the one who is pitching the worse).  If Suarez keeps performing (I don’t think his current level is realistic to expect) but at a good level for a back end starter, he stays.
    • Remove Bradish and I will maybe agree. To me this guy is destined for the pen, where hopefully his swing and miss stuff plays up even more. Could be an important piece, but I’m not getting my hopes up too far after two appearances.
