He wouldn't even have tried to catch it.

Surprised Stewart didn't come up injured on that one.

They're not missing on Means here.  Everything they're hitting has been hard hit.

Sure would be nice, at this point in the supposed rebuild, to have one guy on the ML roster that we could look at and say, That is an above average ML ballplayer, and not be lying to ourselves.

That's depressing as ****.

Nothing like getting off to a good start with your "ace" on the mound. And this is nothing like that!

[Moose Milligan]

I would say Mountcastle has been the biggest disappointment thus far.  I know, small sample size and all that...just hoped he'd start off better than he has.

Can Mustard win a friggin hot dog race?  Come on Orioles, give me SOMETHING.

I missed it was it ketchup today?

Let's have our slowest guys try to bunt. That'll fool em.

Yes.  Who even puts ketchup on a hotdog?

Who puts ketchup on anything?

Taylor Trammell and Justus Sheffield.  It's like the Mariners have the 2018 best prospects.

I'll put it on fries, though it's not my #1 choice (I can go with malt vinegar, or even dip in spicy mustard or mayo).

But I actually put ketchup on mac'n'cheese sometimes.   

So I usually keep a small ketchup bottle in the fridge.

Mancini and Means are candidates. But that doesn't change your point. 

I fear more and more that Elias is building a .500 team rather than a contender. I hope that's wrong, but I think a lot of the burden for that being wrong will fall on the starting pitchers who haven't yet reached the big leagues.

Means coming around...

 

Seve gets his mask knocked off TWICE in one AB. "Be a catcher!" they said. "It'll be fun!" they said.
