Just gotta win the next two to get the series win. Then our chances of making the playoffs will go all the way to 1.4%.

Winning the next 2 games will guarantee at least a split.

It's a 4-game series.

I wonder if the O's will shut Bundy down entirely once they are eliminated.   We'll have 12 games to go after this weekend.     Assuming Bundy starts on Monday, he'd get at most 2 starts after that, and possibly only one.   But perhaps it will be zero.   

Makes sense. For sure he will not start in Tampa to end the season. So basically a question of whether he starts around the 24th or not.  Only 6 games left in season starting on that date.

The best that the Orioles can do now is win tomorrow, and salvage the final game of the series.

In 18 games so far this season, the Yankees have scored 150 runs against the Orioles, for an average of 8.33 runs per game.

You can't win one, when you are going through the motions (including Buck). This team is busy booking their post season plans. I wasted 10 + hours today and went to the game...It was ridiculous. I don't recall any pitcher imploding the second time through a line up like Hellickson does. How he got a QO, I'll never know. But good for him. He's set and has plenty of retirement dough. I'm ready for new faces on this team with a few  remaining vets that care.

It's been the single worst thing about this season.   I hate losing to the Yankees, and so many of these games have been jokes.

      The Difference between the O's and other Playoff teams

      ???. Cowser took more swings against LF than any other LH hitter on the team ( not named  Henderson). He was one of the guys they did not platoon.

      Kevin Seitzer hitting coach?

      By Big O · Posted

      I think Kevin Seiyltzer was the fall guy for a team that thought they were a championship team.  This guy has overseen more a decade of hitting in Atlanta, has been through developing and helping young batters succeed when the league adjusts.  Most importantly, he has a ring!

      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.
