Wow, a 6 pitch inning for Akin!!!

Hahaha yeah I was making my comment at the same time, ha ha Ha.

Yeah, I would have said give Lopez the 7th and 8th to get to Wells.

[Il BuonO]

I’d say now let Lopez finish it after Akin finishes the 7th.

MLB Gameday is FED UP! Still showing the game 1-1, Akin responsible for the 1.

But their score says 7-1. MASN says 7-1. Did Akin give up all those runs?

He had 6 SO in 5 IP. His FB can be plus at time w a higher spin rate. 

I’m not a big believer in CERA, but I’d love to see if a catcher who's a better receiver and better at sequencing than Severino would help. 

I don’t necessarily think he’s destined for the BP either. He could be a serviceable back end guy.

Well I kind of gave up on him a while back, although I keep insisting that we should try him as a piggyback starter with Lopez, but given the fact that everybody’s terrible, I don’t have any problem with letting him finish the year and seeing what he can do.

I feel my other comment deserved a laughing emoji.

How the mighty have fallen.  5 years ago Quintana was an All Star and top 10 Cy Young votegetter.

Now he's pitching mopup  while 6 runs down to a 39-86 team.

We are AHEAD 7-1.  Akin gave up a HR to Ohtani in the first and that is it.

The Orioles are up 7-1.

Petricka's ERA actually went down today - from 54.00 to 45.00.  And he's below Pegero's 67.50.  Ouch.

“The problem is not with your set.”

The Orioles really ARE up 7-1.

Could Mountcastle have taken third on it? It looked like it was missed played in right field, but the stupid cameramen and the stupid video Director don’t give us enough wide views so we can’t judge for ourselves

I've tried adjusting the horizontal and the vertical.  It still says 7-1 O's.
