Lyles probably thinking “there goes my 2023 option”

Nice job looking on the bright side.

30 pitches already and Lyles hasn't even gotten an out yet.

Yay, he got an out on a challenge, he's so good... not!

[CynBeth]

With him sick and not pitching for 10 days wondered if it would have been better to have someone else start and give him an inning or 2 of relief.

This is one of the ugliest starts I have ever seen. 

Might not even be the worst start of the day.

Corey Kluber's final line: 0.2 IP, 8 H, 6 ER, 0 BB, 0 K.

Thanks Jordan.. you look like a Single A pitcher out there… he has zero clue where the pitch is going 

[tntoriole]

37 pitch first inning … I wish he had just stayed throwing up in the toilet lol

Velocity of everything is down. Except the changeup. He's not healthy.

Or he was sick and had a layoff.

4 runs shouldn't be too hard with Aguilar in the lineup.

[terpoh]

I keep hearing announcers over and over during our games talking about how the opposing pitcher "has it all working" ... Maybe our offense just sucks? 

in this game alone… OBP:
Mountcastle .293
Augilar .281
Urias .301
Hays .302
Mateo .275

We make other pitchers look like theyve got it all going. And with OBP like that, its no wonder we very rarely get long extended innings and manufactured runs and have so many empty innings and solo homeruns. Outside of Adley, Santander, Mullins and Gunnar we really have no one that works a count to any extent. 

Adrian Martinez for the A's who shut us down gave up 14 hits today. We need some MAJOR upgrades on O. 

4-0 seems like 10-0 with our offense.

I have faith that Our pitching will get the job done.

I’m more concerned that our offense will not perform.

Just now tuned in. Wonder if there might be some angry Orioles after Devers showboated and slow trotted that grand salami?

They have to produce at least 5 runs so I can't fault them.

Angry at the Devers or Lyles?

[Moose Milligan]

Does anyone outside of Baltimore know who Josh Charles is?

Yeah, I noticed he was taking awhile to get around the bases.
