Tanaka just took a shot directly off a liner by Stanton May be ou awhile with concussion.  You can hear it hit him from camera up in press box.  Hopefully it was glancing blow but sounded real bad.

I’m surprised they aren’t using pitching screens for now.

I bet they do now.  I guess they want as normal as possible situations.  Plus when you usually taking BP the pitcher not throwing that had so little follow through.  If you want normal pitching it makes the screen a bit harder as pitchers come down the mound pretty far on follow through.

What a wonderful first day of camp. Pushing 100. Humidity around 50%.  Like playing baseball in a sauna. 

Look at all the pitchers on the Orioles' roster.  They all show up at camp and they all need somebody to throw the ball to, whatever the heat index may be.

How would you like to be a catcher at this camp?

I have not read that the following international players are working out with the team.  They seem to be held out of workouts so far while testing is occurring or I have just not read anything about them.   These O's international players include:

Dominicans:  Castro

Mexico: Hector Velazquez, Valdez

Venezuela: Santander

(Nunez, Severino, Alberto. Iglesias, Herrera I have read are working out on the field which means they tested negative.)

    • Mullins is in the lineup today. It was just posted.
    • Mike Elias has irritated Adley Rutschman in all 3 of his MLB seasons trying to extract "more retained value" for his boss's bottom line, and wonders why Adley isn't excited to sign away club options on his entire career.    Gunnar Henderson too. It might be a nice gesture to work Basallo in a little earlier next year because adjusting to MLB competition is very hard. James McCann is pretty cool, and I hope he can find more opportunity to further his career next season than playing backup for the league's best starter. EBJ isn't as promising as Basallo, but he is good enough to have a fair chance for 2026 Rookie of the Year in the final season of this CBA, especially with the counting stats boost the 2026 Orioles lineup will give. After that who knows what the rules will be, but definitely top athletes will love geeks figuring stuff out to determine how their careers should progress.
    • Yes, he was unavailable for last night's game because of neck discomfort.
    • I am pretty sure we are in with a win and Mariners loss.  I have seen 2 Mariners losses because if we have to go up against Astros in head to head, if Mariners win division but that doesn’t make sense since a loss gives them 76 which we can’t get too.   The # 1 WC depends on if the West is won by the Mariners or Astros but it most likely is 3 if one of the wins is vs the Tigers or Twins. 
    • Now that Roy is hopeful, there is no hope. The curse is in.
    • Right. 1. Rivera consistently plays over Mayo.  Whether justified or not, he’s clearly higher in the pecking order right now. You don’t cut the second-string player to keep the third-string player.  (Obviously Mayo will be the better long term player and has the better pedigree but we’re talking specifically about the next two weeks). 2. Mayo has an option and Rivera doesn’t. Rivera provides depth going into next year, provides some flexibility to trade Urias if the right offer presents itself, and does several things well as a role player (even if perceived by fans with stigma of waiver wire scrub).
    • I agree. Nothing to lose by trying to claim him.
