Wow, pretty big change and break with tradition there.  I'm old enough the remember when the games started at 7:35 on weeknights, but they've been 7:05 for a long time, maybe around the last few years of Memorial Stadium?  I'm good with it, might make it a bit tougher to get there in time for first pitch for some folks, but it is what it is.  Now if they're just start the playoff and WS games earlier than 8pm.

It's time that you start cutting back on that work schedule anyway.

There will certainly be more people awake at 10pm to catch every single commercial rather than ducking out for bed during the 7th.

I didn't have any chance at making it to a weekday game when they were at 7 anyway so this doesn't change much for me.  It sort of stinks that the games will be even further along by the time I get home to watch, but hopefully this makes it easier for some folks to get there.

Guess my buddies and I will no longer be driving down from Philly after work for any of those games... We we're already showing up around the bottom of the 2nd/top of the 3rd as it was...  But good for the kiddos, I guess.

Come during the summer.

      Re-visiting Luzardo

      I don’t see Eovaldi being dealt, doubt we deal in division and don’t want Anderson or Lorenzen for free. Scherzer yes but he also has to be ok to waive his NTC.

      Pitching This Week

      By Spy Fox · Posted

      They didn't do any of our imagined rotation reshuffling for the previous Yankees series. I'm guessing they won't this time either. I think Burnes will start Wednesday, get his ASG inning, and then they'll use the break as a chance to skip/delay Suarez and Povich. Burnes/Rodriguez/Kremer in some order start in Texas weekend after the break.

      Pitching This Week

      If they didn't set-up Burnes to pitch vs NY when they were trailing them a couple of weeks ago, I don't think they're going to do it with, probably, a lead this weekend. By the way, Burnes could be in line for an all-star game start. I know this is an exhibition game but still quite a honor that he would probably like to be available for.

      O's Getting Hosed, All Star Reserves

      Cowser worries me late in games. He's got the absolute worst clutch stats in MLB and he's one of the absolute worst players in WPA. He's the last guy I want at the plate if we need something to happen in a big spot.

      As a backup plan and for the next two years, ok.  As his big deal for a starter for the stretch run and playoffs.  No.

      Outfield PA the rest of the way

      By Frobby · Posted

      So far this year, the Orioles’ OF PA (1,078) have been allocated as follows: Santander (302) 28.0% Mullins (272) 25.2% Cowser (268) 24.9% Hays (136) 12.6% O’Hearn (45) 4.2% Kjerstad (29) 2.7%  Stowers (26) 2.4% Note that Santander (55 PA) and Kjerstad (17 PA) have also seen time at DH, while O’Hearn gets most of his time (225 PA) at 1B/DH. My question is, what do you think the mix will look like over the final 72 games?   Personally, I’d like to see something like: Santander 27% Mullins 25% Cowser 16% Hays 16% Kjerstad 16% With Santander and Kjerstad continuing to get some PA at DH, as they have been.   Kjerstad since his recall has started 8 of 12 games, 4 in the OF and 4 as DH, and pinch hit in two other games.    I think it’s time to play Cowser less, unless his bat picks up.  16% basically means he’s still playing half the time, split evenly between CF and a corner spot.
