Your timing is odd.  We had 3 pitchers who did terribly today, but you chose Tate to pick on when he did nothing wrong.  

I made that comment as he was coming in, because I was expecting him to be terrible, because he’s usually terrible. The fact that he wasn’t terrible doesn’t really change the question although I agree that it could’ve been better timed.

By the way, the question could also be addressed to the other pitchers.

Among the three, I think Sulser will probably be back, But that’s not necessarily carved in stone

Agreed.  And I guess Wells was too easy to target, while Greene had some good games recently.

I love how passive she is about everything.

Fun video and an interesting artist.

Why are they picking at their food when there's a gorgeous ham with pineapples on the table that she took the time and care to make for them?  Kind of ungrateful for the family to bury her alive at the end.  She didn't mean to be cruel... like the O's didn't mean to be bad.

    • There is no question in my mind that the coaching staff and analytics staff is doing everything in their power to make sure that Holliday is as well prepared as possible before every game.  And he's been in few enough games at this point to where I wonder if there's enough data yet to start drawing up an effective strategy anyway.  Now that the decision has been made to bring him up, Holliday is owed a long enough window to show he can't make the adjustment even with the benefit of the best support.  If that means he has to be sent down, I'm not going to stress about it.  I'm also not going to hold my breath that he'll turn the corner even so.  Adley made it, Gunnar made it, so did Westburg and Cowser and Mountcastle and Grayson...  If Holliday doesn't make it I'll be surprised and disappointed, but the Orioles under Elias are still way ahead of the game and Norby is looking for an opportunity and time marches on.
    • We have 5 guys on pace for 117 RBI. 
    • If a good defensive SS hits 54 HR and is only worth 8.1 WAR I’m gonna have some serious questions on their methodology. 
    • It’s not the same …. Henderson was batting just under .200. Holliday is batting .040. So about 20 % as good as Henderson was at his worst. And he’s striking out in more than 1 out of 2 trips to the plate.   There is no sense panicking either way. But, there is nothing wrong with sending him down. I think too many of you guys are acting like not sticking with him is some kind of sin. As a fan, I’m worried about damaging his confidence too much.    Plus after all the bullshit from his father, hopefully now he will keep his mouth shut.
    • Pedantic is an adjective. Your definition has it as a noun.
    • There's a difference between being patient at the plate as opposed to comatose.
