So who came up to replace Lakins and Harvey?

Please no more Akin. But O's staff being decimated by injuries....

We'll probably see at least one of the 3 guys who have come up from Norfolk in the last 3 days tonight.

[Gurgi]

We are going to need to score a lot more runs tonight.

I think Santander catches that if his ankle wasn't bothering him.  Awful play - either way.

Perfect throw by Hays!  Severino... is so bad at applying tags.  

That was my thought as well. Glad I’m not the only guy who saw that.

On Wednesday Lakins went on the IL and Alexander Wells was sent to Norfolk, and Isaac Mattson and Spenser Watkins came up.

Today Hunter Harvey went on the IL and Zac Lowther came up.

Tate coming off the best outing of his career Tuesday.  He was gassed at the end.

Yes he was.

Gotcha, thanks for the update. I didn’t know about Lowther.

Meanwhile Tate is not doing as well as one would like.

What was the error--bad throw? Dropped it?

[Ruzious]

Are our pitchers purposely throwing right in the middle of the plate?  What's going on???

[O's84]

That didn't take long.  What an awful team.

Tried to short hop it, it went off his glove or his person and got behind him, not far, but he had to spin around and go a couple steps and pick it up, which was enough for the batter to get 2nd.

Letting the batter go to second - he had trouble picking it up off the bounce.

To be fair--Ohtani has been invincible at the plate. 30 bombs already.

The sweep of Houston was fun but now the real Orioles show up.  Playing cripples in the outfield.   We need all guys on defense to be healthy because our pitching needs a lot of help.
