We catch a couple breaks.   Charlie Blackmon  is one of Colarado's better hitters and he is out of the lineup tonight with a sore calf, day to day.

And Rockies closer Wade Davis just went in the IL, you might remember him as a 2014 ALCS nemesis.

 Rockies starter is Jeff Hoffman, a former Blue Jay 1st round pick out of East Carolina who went to Colorado in the Tulowitzki deal.   At 26, he has never lived up to his 1st round billing due to a combination of injuries and not being very good (-1.0 career MLB WAR).

The O's offense has a way of making guys with a 7.20 ERA look like Cy Young

If we cant win this game we might never win.

Question for you guys. Was looking at Gameday pregame. They had the lineup and then a button for "Stacast". Had AEV, ADIS, LA and then there was "Events". What are Events?

The O's winning a game would count as an event in my book.

I'm guessing it's this.

Quote

A Batted Ball Event represents any batted ball that produces a result. This includes outs, hits and errors. Any fair ball is a Batted Ball Event. So, too, are foul balls that result in an out or an error.

Batted Ball Events are a fundamental part of Statcast data. They are used as the denominator when determining batting metrics such as average Exit Velocity and average Launch Angle. All Batted Ball Events by a given hitter are used to determine these averages.

Wasn't that. The numbers were too high.

 

DSJ 141

Villar 135

Trey 134

Ruiz 110

Alberto 100

etc.

Can't be that really. " any batted ball that produces a result. This includes outs, hits and errors. "

They've all got more ABs than those numbers.

/shrug.

Best I got.

 Do the Rockies still need a first baseman? For the longest time I was begging the Orioles to shuffle Mark Trumbo to Colorado, but they wouldn’t take my calls. 

 The National League West is pretty stacked, and I’m not sure what playoff possibilities Colorado has, but boy I’d sure like to talk him into giving us something meaningful for Trey

Harsh CF camera angle...

Yeah, it's bizarre.

On pace for a 27 K perfect game.

Just a perfect game now. Slacker!
