Ok the converse side, 4-6 vs Tor and we have to make up 3.5 games elsewhere which would be very difficult to do. So as we’ve known for a while, the Toronto ten are key to say the least.

You know you've arrived, when you show up under the "toughest opponents" column for the competition.

Boston is a big concern to me.  Not worried about them snatching a wild card spot, but they are going to be a very tough opponent down the stretch.  Their lineup is just loaded and it is almost as if

17 of our next 22 at home; 20 of our final 32 at home.  I don’t think it’s out of the question that we could get to 88 wins which “should” get us a wildcard spot.  My thinking:

Oakland - win 2/3

Toronto - win 3/4

Boston - win 2/3

@ Washington - win 2/2

@ Toronto - win 1/3

Detroit - win 2/3

Houston - win 2/4

@ Boston - win 2/4

@ NY - win 1/3

Toronto - win 2/3

remainder - 19-13

Overall - 88-74

Thoughts?

So far, we’re keeping pace!  😁

We might need to watch out for the White Sox again.   Tony LaRussa is out indefinitely while looking into a health issue, and they have gone 3-1 since he left.   With that albatross no longer around their necks, they could get hot and get back into the wild card race.

Boston is a big concern to me.  Not worried about them snatching a wild card spot, but they are going to be a very tough opponent down the stretch.  Their lineup is just loaded and it is almost as if they have just now realized that they should be much better than their record.  Thankfully they play Tampa 6 times, NY 6 times, and Toronto 3 times so they aren't just going to be a problem for us.  But our 7 games against them could be a real challenge for us.

We lose the doubleheader tomorrow, the race is effectively over.  Making up 4.5 games having only 8 remaining games with the Blue Jays would be extremely difficult. 

Absolutely need at least a split w  the Blue Jays tomorrow and in the series with them.  Tomorrow the Jays throw Manoah and Gausman.  The O's have done surprisingly good against both I believe.

God, I hope Hyde's lineups are bearable tomorrow 

I don’t get the usage of Adley this past series with the doubleheader tomorrow. Catcher’s won-loss record isn’t a stat that is always reliable, but the Orioles are a better team when Adley catches.

So why did Adley only start one game against A’s instead of two as catcher. We know Adley is only catching one game tomorrow the Blue Jays and there’s an off day this Thursday.

Maybe Adley is banged up, but outside of normal rest he should be playing catcher as often as possible. The team plays worse when Chirinos is catching even if Adley is in the lineup as a DH.

I understand not wanting to wear out Adley, but it’s the last month of the season.

It's Gausman and Berrios, my bad.  Berrios has been the weak link in their rotation for the Jays.  Much better matchup.

Kevin will hopefully be overthinking it today which he has had a tendency towards..a loud Camden Yards hopefully will bring back personal past traumas lol

These are HUGE games no doubt. But there are 25 games remaining after this series. Every game going forward is equally important. If we were to take 3 out 4 or even get the 4 game sweep, it doesn't mean much in the grand scheme. Gotta play well in those last 25 or it won't matter. Take it day by day... gonna be a fun month of baseball!

      Hyde: No Idea if Suarez Will Be Back

      By Tony-OH · Posted

      I think at $5 million he's an insurance policy that can go to the pen if need be. I'd rather not go into spring training with him penciled into the rotation. But I also don't want Trevor Rogers penciled in either.  He also could be a bridge until Bradish is ready.

      Hyde: No Idea if Suarez Will Be Back

      By Sports Guy · Posted

      So to all of you saying you would bring him back…. GRod, Eflin, Kremer, Felix, DC, Webb, Soto, Dominguez, Akin and Cano That leaves room for 3 more pitchers and this doesn’t include McDermott, Rogers or Povich. 3 spots left, 1 high end reliever and 2 starters. Which of those 3 spots do you want him at or, who do you take off the above list and keep Suarez over?

      ALWC Game 1 Attendance

      By interloper · Posted

      I went to a few games this year, but here are the reasons I didn't go to the WC games: The team had been an absolute bummer to watch for 3 entire months out of the season and to be honest by the time the playoffs got here I was exhausted and annoyed. The brand of baseball they had been employing for half the season (over-reliance on the home run, terrible ABs, iffy defense) frankly sucked to watch, even on TV, and I'm already spending money to watch them on TV. I wanted them to prove they could get past the WC round before I shelled out more money. I imagine a lot of people share these reasons with me.

      ALWC Game 1 Attendance

      By LookitsPuck · Posted

      People whining about 41k attendance and blaming it on the city have no idea what they're talking about.  Why were there 47k+ of Game 1 against the Rangers last year? Did the city all of a sudden not matter then? It was also a day game. Alas, it was on a Saturday. And they had that locked up for awhile. Why has attendance went up YoY? Look at the Astros and the Brewers. They had *less* people at their G1 games. Is Milwaukee not a nice city? Is Houston not a nice city?  This is pretty simple. It was a day game during a weekday with crappy weather coming off a pretty lackluster performance going into the playoffs. And folks didn't know if there'd even be a home game until, what, barely a week before?  People like winners. Miami is an awesome city. They got a new stadium when it first opened. But guess what? That team stunk in fairly short order upon stadium opening and attendance tanked.

      Hyde: No Idea if Suarez Will Be Back

      By LookitsPuck · Posted

      Would love to bring him back on a 1 year deal for anywhere from $3-$7m.  Great depth arm. Don't pencil him into the 5th starter role. This club needs to pickup two starters: a TOR arm and a BOR arm. Have an open competition for the 5th spot. If Suarez doesn't make it, he'd be a great middle reliever arm. Open competition between Free Agent, Suarez, Povich, McDermott, and Rogers. Do not just go into 2025 penciling Rogers into any role.

      What's Your Top Priority

      By Orioles West · Posted

      It's really tough to set a top priority when I don't know what the budget is. I think the new ownership group will be investing more than the previous regime, I just don't know by how much. I highly doubt the O's will ever be in the "spend whatever it takes mode" like the Mets a couple years ago or the standard yearly overspending by the Dodgers or Yanks. It's still tough to make my Christmas list without knowing the balance sheet. If we're the Dodgers, we keep Burnes and Tony Taters. Hopes and wishes it is then: Even if we sign Burnes, which I wouldn't mind at least making a run at him, I think we need another starter, because injuries and how this year went. Even if the Mountain returns healthy, we need high leverage help in the pen. Veteran bat - no idea who, but if Mullins and Santander leave, we will have to add someone -- I don't know that our prospects will be stepping up or stepping back next year.

      Who Stays and Who Goes Early Guess

      By Aristotelian · Posted

      What I like about Webb is he has an excellent changeup and can get LHB's out. Besides Felix, everyone else in the bullpen needs to be matched up. I think it is important to have another reliable guy who can be brought in to any situation. He is also cheap. I think he is too valuable to just give him away to another team. I like him better than Perez for sure.
