Hmm..I am not sure:eektf:I will be happy to try to get some info for you:)

Why are you comming to Bel Air? You should go see My Ironbirds:):clap3:

Yep. Coming to see the Ironbirds. I've been doing the tour this summer. Keys, home and away, Shorebirds, home and away, Baysox, Tides.

This weekend. The Ironbirds. Section 100. Row A. Really lookiing forward to that.

I grew up in Bel Air, usually find myself up that way every couple of years.

Not in Maine Cindy. I just saw a guy wearing an O's hat last night in the parking lot of our Barnes and Noble here.

You might get a funny look if you are wearing O's gear, but that's about it...

Thanks Jtrea:)

My son will wear his Kevin Millar hat:D

We will wear only O clothing at all times:)

BRob with three straight full counts against Silva, resulting in a homer, a single and a fairly well hit fly out. Also 3 homers and 16 hits off him career. He :hearts: Silva more than Cindy and I :hearts: him.

I guess I'm either invisible or not fangirly enough here anymore to be counted in that paragraph, LOL :laughlol: :eektf: :rofl:

You are invisible. You had what, one post in this thread prior to this? ;) Plus usually you are a bit more calm and rational about your fangirlyness... which is NOT a bad thing!

That and I LOVE BRIAN MORE THAN YOU DO! :mwahaha::laughlol:

Wow great managing by Trembely. Lets see, in the last 3 days, bullpen has been used for a whopping 2/3 of an inning. So why even let Cabrera come out for the 7th. The minute he walked the first guy, he should have been pulled. Without a major miracle, the Sunday blues are going to be back.

    • There’s a good chance McCann starts game one with Burnes. Big roster. We can always move Adley from DH to C late in the game. Lose the DH, but have a big enough bench to just pinch hit and double switch to hide the pitcher’s spot coming up.  So really we’d only be sacrificing 2 ABs from O’Hearn/Mounty/Kjerstad but we get Burnes throwing to his boy every pitch. 
    • We would have lost last night regardless due to zero runs scored by the offense. It is worrisome that Cano looked awful in back to back games. After talk about arm soreness. He has been the one reliable guy. Once we fell behind I don't really care how bad Bowman and Baker are. Hopefully they don't even make the roster for the playoffs. 
    • Don’t sleep on Povich getting a chance to eliminate the team that traded him away. That kind of stuff matters. The little extra…
    • I do worry about the McCann start although he has been hitting lately, so maybe you can justify it.
    • It’s the 7th inning with Burnes or Eflin on the bump. A tough lefty is coming up. Who you bringing in?  Perez or Coloumbe?  
    • My thoughts: - I agree that the Achilles heel is the bullpen and not the offense (especially with Westburg, Mountcastle, Urias, and Kjerstad back). - I also agree that Perez is overused in high leverage situations. This is going to come down to the degree you expect his “clutch” performance to be predictive going forward.  - I second the notion that most good bullpens are built with some degree of dumpster diving.  If you go back to offseason threads, there were not many desired bullpen FA targets (outside of unrealistic ones like Hader) that would have worked out well.  Maybe we haven’t “dumpster dived” well enough as evidenced by the success of Kaleb Ort in Houston. - Jacob Webb hasn’t been sharp since returning from the IL and Bowman has looked shaky his last few times out. - We don’t have a true closer, only a group of mostly effective set-up men in Dominguez, Cano, and Coulombe. - Part of me wishes they would be more aggressive with G-Rod and the Mountain. While we expect the team to continue to contend, you never really know how many times you’ll be back in the playoffs. However, I know in my head they are probably making the right decision. - I also feel like they should be auditioning McDermot, Selby, Young, or Strowd (who has been very good since August after rough Norfolk start). They could option Baker who I think is unlikely to have a path to trusted status after last year’s ALDS performance. This feeling may be mostly driven by dissatisfaction with the current state and wanting something better.  It might be unrealistic to expect options unproven at the MLB level to suddenly step in and be key playoff pieces.
    • Oh if we’re talking about what they will do, I can see it being something stupid like McCann at C and Adley at DH. I do think Mullins has enough veteranosity to outweigh Hyde’s obsession with L/R matchups.
