June 8th Vs. Toronto


Palmer Esque

If this was a game they should've won, then Friday was a game they should've lost. It all evens out in the end.

Yeah it does, just a little moreso with better teams. Teams make their own breaks by playing hard and doing the little things.

I am just happy the Orioles have a manager who believes in this philosphy(even if he cannot get through to some of the knuckleheads we have runnign the bases)

I didn't see the start of the game but Davis and Dempsey were just talking about a "steal" of home that with the run coming across on that play could be viewed as the winning run. It sounded like Ramon Hernandez made a mental error on that play that according to Dempsey was inexcusable. I sure will be glad when they upgrade and get a smarter backstop.

But we are strong and will bounce back. DT will demand it or else heads will roll :)

I don't think DT is big on the guillotine. That's more of a message-board thing.

I think DT's more interested in getting guys to play hard because they want to.

    • People keep talking about Norby's flawed defense, meanwhile Holliday is looking pretty bad out there. Small sample size, I guess! But how long is the leash?
    • the Royals gave us the business tonight...except for the slam by Adley...we stunk to high hell tonight...especially the pen...Akin and  Tate...they both came up small.
    • I know this isn’t the question that you asked, but my recollection is that you worked on the business side for the Orioles at some point, so I think you might be able to weigh in on this idea: do you think there are business reasons to extend a Gunnar or an Adley? I know you’re view is generally that extensions are overrated by the fanbase, but that largely seems related to the idea that you are paying for past-peak years (if I’m off base here, it wasn’t intentional—just my recollection). I tend to think that from a business standpoint, an extension for a young player would not make a material difference concerning the amount of tickets sold, revenue generated, etc. and would really just make some people on X happy, but I don’t really have anything to support that opinion.
    • The way he is pitching that's like throwing gas on a fire.
    • I don't think Elias will seriously entertain bringing back Santander.
    • Left the game with 1 run in and 2 on ,2 outs in the 6th and Akin gave up both runs. Bad luck tonight in my opinion but I'm sure there are many on here will say he sucks and should be replaced. 
    • Yeah, we're kind of getting off track here since this is a Jackson Holliday thread, but I will say I don't see how Mountcastle gets traded -- and even if he did it would be to unblock Mayo and not Kjerstad.  Both Mounty and Mayo are righties, and it doesn't look like Mayo will play third base anytime soon.  I think two of the prospects need to get traded -- maybe in the offseason or next season -- unless Hays, O'Hearn or Mounty are dealt.  I think there's a chance the O's bring back Santander, but that's a big wildcard too.
