Damn! 2 games tomorrow and MASN is showing the Gnats replay at 11:30.

smh

Don't know much about the replays, but in terms of whether they are on MASN or MASN2, it's split right down the middle.   I try to guess when a new series starts which team will be on MASN and which will be on MASN 2 for that midweek or weekend, and I'm usually able to guess correctly and got to the correct station without looking it up.

Games with big rivals (NYY/Bos, or Phi/Atl/NYM) take top priority.   Then games vs good teams, then games vs bad teams.   Home games take precedence over road games.   West coast games are at the bottom of the priority list.

So if O's are playing Yankees and Nats are playing Dodgers at home, O's will be on MASN because it's a rival game vs a "just-a-good-team" game.   If O's are playing Cleveland and Nats are playing Cardinals, whichever of the O's/Nats is at home will be on MASN and the other on MASN2.   If they are both home or both on the road, that's the only time it becomes difficult to guess.

They do split them pretty even. With no prejudice. Pretty much one week O's, one week Gnats.

    • After a really dumb day at work, this was an absolutely delightful read. Seeing a diamond expert and a can of corn detonate a yoked PBA pro was absolutely wonderful. I love this website. 
    • If you pitch Bradish on 5 days rest you'd pitch Rodriguez on 3 days rest?
    • I think if you look at it draft by draft most years Elias did not have a chance to take a pitcher early. 2019 was Adley/Witt, 2020 everyone wanted Austin Martin SS over Kjerstad, 2021 it was Cowser or a few high school SS, and 2022 it was 5 position players at the top of the draft. I think Asa Lacy or Max Meyer were the only pitchers we could have possibly taken up until last year. 
    • Damn I wish I was that guy
    • Crochet had a monstrous game tonight. 7 IP 2 H 1 ER 2 BB 13 Ks I would love to have him even if it meant moving him to the bullpen for the final stretch but someone is gonna drastically overpay for him with top of rotation potential and 2x additional seasons of club control.    assuming it starts with Mayo, Kjerstad, Povich etc 
    • I would like to see the O's have more success drafting and developing their own pitchers under Elias.  But I must concede that so far Elias has an excellent track record of getting good young controllable pitching from other teams farm systems  (Bradish, Povich, McDermott, Cano) or the waiver wire (Suarez, Webb, Perez).   The development of these pitchers suggests that we have excellent coaching in the high minors and in the majors.  There's more than one way to skin a cat. At this point I don't see a need to trade farm system capital for a top-line starting pitcher like Luzardo.  If the season ended today I'd feel really good about going into a playoff series with Burnes, Rodriguez and Bradish as our big three starters.   I also see no point in getting Crochet midseason as he's not going to be able to carry a starters' load into October.  It's more likely that we trade for bullpen help now, and then address starting pitching in the offseason if Burnes moves on.
