If you want to see low attendance wait until next year when no one renews their season ticket packages.  

Including me.   But I’ll still probably go to about the same number of games as before.

The Orioles actually drew more fans against the Marlins than they did against the Red Sox, albeit with an extra promotion day (Dylan Bundy Bobblehead for one game of the Red Sox series, and Floppy Hat Day and Neck Tie Day for two games of the Marlins series.)

 

However, the 2nd largest draw in the entire 6-game homestand was a non-promotional game (23,948 for Saturday afternoon's game against the Marlins) ........ and that was exceeded by only 20 fans on Floppy Hat day (23,968 for Friday night's game against the Marlins.)

Weekend games with good weather are going to outdraw weekday games, no matter who is playing.

In most cases, yes.

Not necessarily when the Yankees or the Red Sox are involved as the opponent.

Attendance isn't based on  how many games you go to. All that matters is how many tickets you buy. 

That's why selling season tickets -- not just season ticket plans, but season tickets for all 81 home games -- is critical to attendance. The attendance of teams like the NYYs, RS and Cubs doesn't suffer much even when there are small crowds due to declining fan interest, goofy scheduling, bad weather, etc.: they've already sold most of those empty seats.

The O's are averaging 20,223 fans per home game so far this year.  As far as I can tell this is the lowest attendance rate in the history of Camden Yards.

 

The previous low was in 2010 when they averaged 21,662 fans per game.   After 12 years of losing.

You think the Orioles would be in a hurry to get rid of salary at this point with the attendance dropping to historical lows.  

Be careful what you wish for when you see our team salary in 2019.   ?

Really the team can't be any worse than this year. The Rays jettisoned most of their salaries and they have won 16 more games than us.

      RHH Outfield Targets

      By wildcard · Posted

      Let  Westy  play 3B vs right handed pitching and LF vs left-handed pitching.    Urias can play 3B vs lefties.   This is only needed if Cowser can't hit lefties. Mateo and Westy can be platoon in the outfield IMO.

      O'Neil seems like a perfect fit if he doesn't cost too much in years or dollars.

      Still think this team didn't choke under pressure?

      By sportsfan8703 · Posted

      I don’t think we choked. Stubborn as hell. We literally went down with the same sinking ship philosophy that we had the entire 2nd half of the season.  The young guys just have to adjust. I mean getting completely shut down for 5 post season games has to wear on them. If it doesn’t, then we were never built to win.

      RHH Outfield Targets

      By sportsfan8703 · Posted

      Right now the 2025 OF has three LHH OF in Cowser, Mullins, and Kjerstad. I’m not sure what the bench makeup of this team will be, but it looks like we’ll need 1-2 RHH options.  We could bring Slater back on a small “Tony Kemp” like 1 year deal or a milb deal.  With Santander leaving, and Mateo back to being in the CF mix once healthy, do we go with a more COF RHH type? Trades are a possibility as well, but here is a list of upcoming RHH OF Free Agents,

      Offseason Trade Pondering

      By Jagwar · Posted

      I actually didn't suggest a reliever as the return, that was SG. I was thinking more about trading veterans to acquire pitching prospects, probably lower level lottery tickets. I'd rather pick up ML roster pieces through free agency (assuming of course that Rubenstein will allow a significant payroll boost.).

      Co-hitting coach Ryan Fuller, Fredi Gonzalez and Jose Hernandez let go

      By Jammer7 · Posted

      Each player is different. Each player may have a somewhat different hitting philosophy, based on their strengths and weaknesses. Not everyone is a “power hitter.” I would not coach a Tony Santander the same as a Jordan Westburg, or a Jorge Mateo, or a Cedric Mullins. Some should be more selective, while others may need to do more damage and it’s ok for them to K more because the power payoff is worth it. Some should have a more oppo approach, while others may need to try to pull the ball more. The Waltimore certainly has messed with many of our RH bats.  Being a hitting coach is a lot of work, and it is usually not often a position held for many years. They seem to often be a scapegoat when the players do not hit. I wonder what drove the players to swing more at pitches they probably should not have. I seriously doubt it was Ryan Fuller. Hitting coaches have a general philosophical approach, like Fuller would have hitters learn to take pitches they cannot hit well, with less than 2 strikes.. He wanted them to swing only at pitches they can do damage with. They do not dramatically change. For the Orioles to become much more free swinging, that must have driven Fuller to leave. So be it. Going forward, they probably need to be somewhere in between the previous two years. In the playoffs, they get pitched to differently. It’s higher intensity. You have to be proficient in putting the ball in play. You have to be able to take what the game gives you, and execute. There is no excuse for repeatedly having runners in scoring position with less than two outs and repeatedly not being able to get them home. Bases loaded, no outs, hitters 2,3 and 4 coming up…we have to score there. The approach was to hit a grand slam. Awful baseball. A ton of talent on this roster, and something has to change.

      Do we agree that developing Kjerstad RF, Holliday 2B and Mayo 1B/DH.......

      By wildcard · Posted

      I have been pretty happy with Kjerstad's defense in the outfield corners.   Not that I want him in left at home.     I agree with what Elias said about Mayo's body type being more suited for 1B.
