Friday, August 26: Orioles begin 6 game road trip vs division leaders in Houston

[WillyM]

Bradish has had three games where he was pulled with two outs in the fifth inning while the Orioles held the lead in a game they would go on to win.

Give him those three wins, and his record would look a lot better than the 1-5 with which he entered this game.

I've been listening to the Astros announcers on mlb.com. Who's doing the game for the O's broadcast?

Yes, true. I guess I was using MLB in the "royal" sense—including all franchises—as opposed to the actual entity that is Major League Baseball legally. I live in DC. I would happily pay $100 dollars a year to easily watch the orioles on my laptop. And I'm not alone in this. Just seems dumb to leave money on the table. 

They want to make money off their RSN. Curious how the streaming stuff locally will play out. I think MLB should have a deal with YouTube, sling etc. 

 

I know people who have DISH and no MASN. DISH basically got out of the RSN business.

Living in Connecticut  I get Red  Sox Yankees and Mets games blacked out. That’s like a 4th of the season. Not cool. I’m debating getting rid of the package and stealing all the games. 

I grew up in Iowa.  In my hometown the Cardinals, Royals, Cubs, White Sox, Brewers, and Twins are all blacked out. The Brewers are 8 hours away, Chicago teams and the Twins are all 6 hours away, and the Cardinals 4 hours away.  Still all blacked out.  As other have said, MLB desperately needs to increase exposure to gain fans from the younger generations.

TV Arnold, Palmer

radio Garceau and Newman.

Disappointed that Santander swung at that very high pitch.

Aren't the "bars" in Georgetown just senior centers?  Don't they close at 6pm?

Haha, no, that’s Sun City (part of Georgetown) There’s quite a few places that are open until midnight and a couple are sports bars.

I'm sure in 10 years, things will be much better than they are now. Or Ted Leonis will have bought us and I'll have to spend $70 dollars a month on Monumental Sports+ to watch them.

That swing actually made me laugh because it was so high.

Bradish probably has a little more leash then he normally would with top bullpen guys maybe not available.
