Minnesota loss puts us just 3 back in loss column.   Nobody wants to win the 2nd wild card.  The Rangers who we clobbered are now the hot team making a move.  Twins beat up on dbacks then fall back after series with the White Sox.

My opportunity is today. I guess I am going to go ahead and buy them. I have done the pay 50/50 deal in the past. Email states you have until Friday the 8th but the earlier the better the tickets. My first year I was assigned a location in 2014.  

Not only do we have to get the 2nd WC then have to win WC game. Who knows. I hate spending money early on anything.

I believe that the emails with the guy I split my partial season plan with deciding to forego purchasing tickets during our opportunity was leaked to the Orioles and hung in the locker room.  It is the only thing that explains the seemingly anger-driven run barrage.

Hope they don't find out that I just bought tickets then....

Hope this doesn't derail our momentum.

Wife got lower level. She said club level was available as well. I bet many people haven't bought yet and are waiting. 

 

I'm a big LF lower box fan. Best bang for your buck.

Regular 13 game seats are in Sec 82, row 10. Got 84, row 2 for playoffs. There were row 1 available, but I went for the aisle seats in row 2.

They are a good value. 

Well after we beat the Yanks in the WC game Tu Oct 3 we play in Houston on Th/Fr  Oct 5,6. Home game Sunday the 8th-Ravens on road, if we don't sweep the 9th-Columbus Day. 

Then we play Boston or Cleveland in ALCS. Starts Fr Oct 13, our 3 home games M,Tu,W 16-17-18. If we haven't already won... finish 20, 21st. 

World Series we head to LA Tu Oct 24. Home F, Sa, Sun 27-29. Back to LA if needed which I doubt Tu Oct 31, Game 7 Wed Nov 1. 

So everyone needs to plan accordingly.

Indians have tiebreaker head to head. They have to pick up 5 games with 32 left. 

Astros always beat us but they look vulnerable. Sale will have to carry Sox to some extent. I think Indians are the best team.

      The Difference between the O's and other Playoff teams

      By bpilktree67 · Posted

      I honestly think there is very little difference in most the teams that made the playoffs.  The most wins was 98 wins and there was 12 teams with 86 wins or more.  It also seems that many of the teams are on the same page with scouting and analytics now hitting wise.  Years back you had moneyball which the A’s used before anyone else.  Then the Astros and few teams started with analytics and seemed to be ahead of the rest of the league but they have caught up now imo.  Now the move seems to be on launch angle and hitting homers by getting the ball in the air but that seems to be across the league.  Obviously some teams have more money and more talented players but the strategy seems about the same.  The main differences I see is in pitching in the playoffs which is bullpen games and using openers rather then a starter to go 7 innings and carry your team to win now a slight sign of trouble they are taking them out.  With all these short inning guys and pitching them in certain pockets we are seeing very little offense and the hitting with runners in scoring position has been awful.  It all comes down to RISP at bats and getting 1 or 2 big base hits in those situations.  We just haven’t been able to get those hits so far in short series.

      And we've seen similar with Kjerstad. Kjerstad might be the best pure hitting prospect in the Orioles system of recent years besides Gunnar. I want to see him playing everyday next year is possible none of this sitting him versus LHP more often than not. These prospects need to get their reps and stop treating them like John Lowenstein and Benny Ayala.

      Offseason Trade Pondering

      By bpilktree67 · Posted

      I don’t see Elias trading off prospects anymore at least top guys.  We have moved a few guys in last year and I expect they try to build that back up.  They should have money to use if they want to add talent.

      Blah, well Rob Manfred has to be happy along with Fox network. A Yankees-Mets World Series match up is still on the table and the Dodgers as well if they win tomorrow. I knew the Royals would get jettisoned by the Yankees without too much of a fight.

      For Mountcastle …Maybe Chase Petty and Tristan Smith?

      I’m guessing they ask for Mayo or Basallo of Kjerstad. For me …I’d give them Kjerstad since he’s defensively challenged IMO. Maybe Kjerstad, McDermott, Beavers, and O’Ferrall?

      192 wins in two seasons is a pretty strong argument to stay the course.  That said, I wonder if the young players wouldn't be better off long-term if the scientific matchups took a back seat to the raw talent a little more than we've seen.  Overthinking something can be a thing you know.
