"Hey look Boss its DiPlan DiPlan"   

Kid is trying to find a role here in Baltimore.  He keeps getting outs.

Means starts are supposed to the the one day during the week we look forward to as O's fans.

Maybe the Orioles will have a dramatic comeback today? 

Why should we have something to look forward to? 

We're just supposed to be patient, according to Elias.

Well, I have a break from work and I turn on the game first thing I think of is, “John is not a very good second half pitcher.”

Watching DiPlan his arm doesn't wow you, but he's doing a good job at getting batters out so far.

DJ need to keep hitting to make me forget his mega suck in the field.

What's gotten into Dj Stewart and how hot would he have to get to assure himself of a spot on next year's team.

Jeez! What entity has possessed DJ Stewart's body today???

[Ruzious]

Oh great, another lame solo homer by DJ.  

[spiritof66]

Too bad the Tigers can't bring Chamberlain in.

DJ with the HR! Good for him. He definitely needs its.

It's totally his fault the other guys didn't get on base in front of him.  If he was a better player he could have willed baserunners.

Yup, and he screwed up again!

Pretty hot I think. He's still only an... adequate OFer.

Same-old Department: O's are 0 for 6 with RISP.

Not being a team player I'm guessing he's attempting to make sure his career doesn't end with him below replacement level.

Same thinking on DJ because all he can offer a team is his hitting tool as a ballplayer.
