Wednesday: O's vs Rays on MASN


SteveA

Recommended Posts

Looks like our possible opening day lineup on the field today:

Mullins
Mountcastle
Santander
Mancini (DH)
Hays
Odor
Urias (3B)
Mateo
Chirinos

Bruce Zimmerman on the mound, he retired the first 5 before a runner reached 2nd on an error by Mateo (I assume a throwing error because the runner got to 2nd?   I'm at work so I can't watch).

Back to back doubles by Santander and Mancini in the bottom of the first gave the O's a run vs TB P Fleming.

A double by a guy named Mead off Zimmerman tied the game, unearned due to the Mateo error.

I really wish they had statcast installed at Ed Smith Stadium. It really gives a wealth of information to the fans and analysts.

I did not see Mateo's error either but I believe that's his second at SS this spring. He has all the tools to be good there but I think he's always going to be a little error prone.

Elias is going to have to make pitching decisions based on very small spring training samples.  But, Ellis is making it way to easy for the O's to say "buh, bye."

Ellis is on a minor league contract and this effort makes it look like that is where he belongs.

The "error" was off his glove with the wind blowing pretty fiercely.  He would not have had that issue any other day or ballpark, in my opinion.  The wind was really, really whipping today.

It was great, wasn't it? 

 

When I get home from work tonight I'm going to fire up the replay on MASN.

Watching a preseason game where you already know the result isn't a sign of mental illness, is it?

    • @Moose Milligan  Vinnie Boom Bats.   Nice.  Rodney.  
    • They're 2-5 against teams over .500. I find that hard to believe but that's what the MLB.com says. They've also allowed the least amount of runs in all of MLB at 52. That's kind of nuts. Gonna be a tough weekend but our boys are different these days. They didn't see much of Colton Fred Cowser Lynn in the first series, either.
    • You have to respect that they made an effort in free agency. Signing Lugo and Wacha, Will Smith, Renfroe. Their pitching additions would fit in well on this team right now. Should be a good series. 
    • The Orioles are in sweet and tangy bbq land to play the Fightin' Bob Hamelins for a three game set starting tonight. Fri:  7:40 EST start:  Dean Kremer vs. Alec Marsh Sat:  7:10 EST start:  Corbin Burnes vs. Cole Ragans Sun:  2:10 EST start:  Cole Irvin vs. Seth Lugo KC enters the series 1 game back of the Cleveland Thomes and they're 7-3 over their last 10.  Despite their recent history of ineptitude, they look to be improved this year in the poverty stricken AL Central and they can still give us a hard time.  Lefty Ragans is off to a good start which means we'll be down Ryan O'Hearn for Austin Hays as is Sunday starter Lugo. Bobby Witt 2.0 has an OPS of .997 and already at 1.6 WAR, Old Man Perez is at .943 and Vinnie Boom Bats is .853.  
    • This would be fine by me.I know some people said they don't want a bigger scoreboard  Also Nationals Park is upgrading the speaker system but didn't finish the whole upgrade for this  season.         The offseason upgrades (off-the-field variety) that could have the biggest effect on fan experience are to the scoreboard displays in the ballpark. The Nationals replaced their main scoreboard, their out-of-town scoreboard in right-center field and their ribbon boards with state-of-the-art LED displays that feature much higher resolution than the previous models. The size of the main scoreboard is unchanged, but the difference in quality is noticeable, and the clearer and brighter display will feature enhanced statistics and graphics.
    • However you wanna calculate it, he’s a diaper dandy. 
    • Westburg exceeded rookie eligibility limits last year exceeding 130 at bats and more than 45 days on the active roster. On the plus side he might qualify as a super sophomore or at the very least avoid the sophomore slump.
