Fangraphs (which factors in strength of schedule) projects us at 56 wins, meaning 18 the rest of the way.  I’m a bit more pessimistic than that, so I’ll say 14-17.

It’s always fun to ask questions like this in the middle of a bad losing streak.

I don't see this group coming together to reel off a strong finish.  I mean, it's baseball, it can get weird, but right now they don't look like they could beat the Bad News Bears.  There's obviously no help coming outside of some IL cases like Zimmerman I guess and I don't know if I'm missing any others because I'm completely checked out.  Is Zimmerman even coming back?

I guess they could win a few Means starts.

The 2010 Orioles were 32-73 when Buck was hired and they finished the year on a 34-23 run. I don't see the Orioles getting a jumpstart similar to Buck's hire, so they should be in contention until the final series to get that 2022 #1 draft pick.

At this point I just want one win now to break this losing streak.  This is becoming a national embarrassment and I don't care about getting the number one pick this way.  

The 2021 Orioles won't break the 1962 Mets record for losses if they can just break this darn losing streak at least they won't go down in history. I don't know what the longest losing streak in history is but it's getting close to 1988 Orioles 0-21 streak.

Gotta admire the fervency the O's have shown for the #1 pick. 

Dbacks last 16 games. 
 

3 @Dodgers 

3 @Houston

4 ATL

3 LAD

3 @SF 

 

Now it’s entirely possible last 3 games are meaningless for SF, have to see how it plays out

It's an embarrassment if they break the streak or not.

    • First, the had a jump in 23’ given how terrible they had been previously, which conditions many fans in the marketplace not to care. They simple weren’t relevant for years. So one very good regular season will not undue years of being bad/irrelevant and treating your customers terribly. Next, I think they missed an opportunity in the offseason by not doing enough by way of big/bold attention grabbing moves. Now I acknowledge that this was most likely due to the ownership flux/transition. I believe they got an attendance/marketplace engagement boost when they changed owners and when they traded for Burnes. However, I believe we would have seen more engagement attendance with say a big Gunnar extension and/or bringing in a big time FA.   IMO this would have created more buzz before the season (say around the time people make season tix decisions - IMO before Christmas is when some people make those bigger purchases). All of this is to say, that it will take time and effort on the organizations part because of how bad of a stain that the Angeloses left. I still have friends and colleagues who refuse to support the Orioles and attend games due to the damage that was done. Rubenstien & co are not going to be able to undo 30 years of awfulness overnight. But IMO it is not enough to simply call it “a new chapter”. They have to make new/different actions to distinguish themselves from who the Orioles were/used to be under the Angelos regime.
    • Just checking in on Gameday, Yankees looking incredibly vulnerable.  Should be the Os out there.  Super lame.  Whichever team wins this series I hope gets knocked out by CLE or DET.
    • If the franchise were better, the fan base would be too.  It’s been a rough 40 years.
    • It also means we don’t have to trade our prospect capital to acquire him 
    • Machado just hit a 2 run home run off of Yamamoto.  I hope the Orioles young players are taking notes.
    • Yeah it was priced initially the same as the ALDS games, same as last year. Nobody was rushing to pay those prices. And by the time the tickets reached appropriate levels, by the Orioles lowering their prices or the secondary market coming down in price, fans have like 24 hours to figure out their plans to attend a mid afternoon game. It’s just not worth getting upset about — we still had an awesome crowd and the only thing missing was an offense to ignite it.
