Games like this just reinforces my desire to get rid of Showalter. This club wasn't ready to play today. His message is not resonating in this clubhouse. Absolutely pathetic.

My lord. It's Buck's fault Miley sucks.

This club was not ready to play. It didn't come to play Saturday either or a week ago Friday. Too many instances to pin it on a lousy pitcher.

They were down 7 runs by the bottom of the 2nd and the starter was gone. Trying to figure out how that is the entire teams fault.  Put Max Scherzer out there today and we would have been "ready to play".

Miley didn't even give the Orioles a chance to compete today.  Miley needs to go to the bullpen, his ERA was 7.48 in June and today he was Ubaldo level bad.  Miley's replacement could be even worse, but I've seen enough.  

Lee has been terrible in Norfolk, but I might call him up to see what he's got.  There is no help on the way from the farm system and that is all on Duquette.

If they weren't ready to play why did thy bother to turn that great DP just now? It's hard to grind it out when the SP puts you down 7 runs in 2 innings.

    • Westburg shouldn’t be, where are you seeing that?
    • So since Westburg is apparently still ROY eligible, Cowser and Westburg may project to be the best rookie combination since Fred Lynn and Jim Rice in 1975?  
    • There were several and I was one them. I'm  on record as saying I was one of his biggest Apologists . You should feel good about yourself as you were able to see that Means would be imploding before our very eyes( which was an opinion or a guess, which is what I did) as far as feeling bad for me? Dont I'm plenty good enough to know I wont be able to guess right every time 
    • Fantastic pickup by Elias and big kudos to O’Hearn for taking advantage of the resources to improve. He’s a great story. 
    • Given his injury history and what’s happening right now, Means may make more money as an Oriole next year than as a free agent. He may have to settle for league minimum as a FA but would do better than that in arbitration. Heck, unless he’s effective at least a little this year then the orioles might release him after the season to avoid paying more than league minimum. I hope Means recovers, very much so, but this scenario is possible imo.    ps. I guess I ignored the part where you said if Means thinks he is healthy. 
    • What I'd like to see in the next game Holliday plays, is for him to keep his eyes following through on the ball when he swings. In the last game I saw, he was yanking his head off the zone when he swung and couldn't see the bat to the ball. He was missing wildly and it wasn't even competitive. So, keep your eye on the ball! Follow all the way through! If your swing is so violent that it's yanking your head off the sight of the ball, then adjust your mechanics because you can't hit what you can't see!
    • What a great example of pedantic! Please tell us you meant to do that. I honestly can’t tell these days.
