The fact that they played their B squad was utterly predictable, even before Game 1 was played.   

To be fair, I think we should note that the O's pitched their B squad in Game 1--Meisinger, who hasn't been effective yet; Hart, who most OHers want off the team; Means after three weeks sitting at home; and Carroll, who must be hiding some quality somewhere but I haven't seen it.  We didn't pitch anyone we'd want in a tight game.

One last chance to flaunt our pitching depth, and try to hold the Astros to < 1 dozen. Go, Birds!

How about holding them to 2 touchdowns and a field goal?

Since the games don’t count for anyone it would nice if they were only seven innings.

For the O's benefit, a mercy rule should be instituted.  If the O's are down by 10 runs in the 5th inning or later, the game ends early.

An elite pitcher that I feel like we do well against.

You're being too much of an optimist.

I think they only person who would feel cheated would be the lucky fan who gets $500 for each Oriole home run. Could we throw in $1,000 for him or her?

But the whole team still gets ice cream after, right?

And a participation trophy at the end of the season.

The Astros will be resting starters today, so there's your "mercy."
