Bautista slams barn door, odor of missing horse still lingers.

Odor needs to be the first one to go at the deadline 

Deadline?  He needs to have his locker cleaned out before tomorrow's game.

Well, I'm sure Watkins will pitch a complete game tomorrow and get these guys some rest, right?

100%, the second Odor f'd up that play the Rangers were going to score. The runner took Bautista out of his rhythm. 

If the Orioles lose this game, this is on Odor. I don't give a rat's ass how much of a clubhouse guy he is, he can't stay on this team.

Oh, And Kevin Brown sucks. He used about 9 announcer jinxes on Bautista before he made a pitch.

Hah, it’s on Brown!

Odor’s play was huge.   Bautista was totally thrown off his game by that.   Great pitch by Bautista there too. 

[Yardball85]

Vespi, Odor, and Hyde for bringing Vespi in, costing us this game.  Incredibly frustrating, yet so typical of this team.

[Moshagge3]

Can't wait for Odor to ground into a double play to end it.

Sorry I was channeling my inner Mike Elias

Nah, he'll just flail at three straight pithces to end it.

Obviously the Brown part was tongue and cheek, but damn, he was filling up the jinxes even mentioning how he hadn't given up an earned run in 20 some innings after an error was given to Mountcastle.

Adley just missed a cookie.  

[Yossarian]

This loss will not sit well

[Tony-OH]

Honestly, it's really my fault. I haven't watched a full Orioles game in a bout three weeks and as soon as a sit down to do so, this game! lol

Not that my opinions mean anything, but I thought Santander was safe in the bottom of the eighth and Semien was out in the top of the ninth.

I know - orange-colored glasses.

I know what you meant.  I hate that stuff too.  Very superstitious.

Yup Odor whiffing on 3 pitches to end it would be fitting
