Ah there's the O's I know. Bases loaded no outs and nobody puts the ball in play.

Owings is terrible. Guy can;t field and he certainly can't hit major league pitching. Somehow this guy made the team. Gotta love that computer program indentfying those diamonds in the rough!

I trust your judgement. That’s my initial reaction.

Such a legend!

I mean you have 2 on none out, you get nothing.  You have bases loaded none out, you get nothing.  You give 3 unearned runs (Mostly on Watkins), one of them on a bad throw where the guy wasn't halfway to 1st.  Heck, he could of read the entire works of Shakespeare and still would have had time to throw the guy out. 

Bottom line, it's hard to win a Baseball game when you do all of that.

I really don't need to see another AB from him to know that he can't hit.

Didn’t swing at a strike,  4 batters.

pathetic, never even fouled a ball off.

Frustrating but Williams is a really, really good pitcher. And Odor probably strikes out too.

But lefties hit him better. So even though Odor and Stewart are bad, they c=give you a better opportunity then Owings, Mateo and McKenna (Who cant hit righties or over 94 MPH)

Hey, at least none of the orioles did that

I did not like the signing and absolutely hated him making the team.

Owings has a career OPS+ of 73. What computer program would say he was good, a golf simulator?

In 599 plate appearances between 2018 to 2021 Owings has put up a .583 OPS (and a 53 OPS+)!

Why was he signed to begin with?

Sig's "smarter than all of you program" that has produced jack and squat for the Orioles.

Not to mention... I've seen enough of McKenna too. How many sub-600 OPS games are going to be enough for Elias to give up on him?

He's a changeup pitcher. .194/.540 vs RHB, .168/.598 vs LHB. Odor and Stewart are pretty much guaranteed K's.
