37 strikeouts in 3 games; 15 today, and that was with Davis on the bench.

Yeah, its just not good.  

Only hope is to get some young guys up to infuse the team with some energy.  But that's not a plan.

This team is going to lose 120 games. I can't see them having 15 more wins in them. Brach is useless. He would have brought a decent prospect last year. Oh well.

40-45 wins.  I think we're seeing the effects of not having Manny already.  Would have been nice to have had him yesterday and today.  Offense was terrible with him, it will be worse without him.

They were up 4-1 going into the bottom of the 8th.  Bad offense or not, a 3-run lead should be enough that late in the game against another bad opponent.  Today, blame Brach....not the offense.

We've only won 11 more games this season than we did in all of Spring Training

Yup, watched it.  Terrible pitching, terrible offense.  Today doesn't really matter.

Honestly, who cares. You're either in contention or you're note. It's almost better if we lose more because we'll get a higher draft pick. 

Except for the black mark on history books.

Buck is not trying to win games when he brings Tanner Scott in the 8th with a one run lead.  

Scott was pitching for the 2nd time in two days with a 6.43 ERA while Castro with a 3.49 ERA sits in the pen rested.

I  think the Orioles realistically can only catch two teams White Sox and Royals.They play each other nine times.So I think the Orioles get the first or second draft pick.

I don't much care how many games the Orioles win the rest of the way. (When I'm watching a game, I do still root for them to win.)

I care a lot who plays in those games. I really want to see a few new faces in August and a bunch more in September. And I want to see them playing whole games, not going in as pinch runners or defensive replacements
