It appears Cowser has played himself out of serious consideration for the time being. This would have been the perfect chance to get him in a game, and it speaks volumes he's on the bench against a RHP. Not that Cowser has been a defensive standout himself.

Agreed.  Seems very clear that Cowser's PT will probably be very limited for the rest of the season.  He'll get another good crack at it next year.

I've griped about the lineup a few times this year only to have the Orioles come out and put up a good amount of runs. But I am not trying for a reverse lock here when I say that this is a dog***

LOL. Don’t let 64-41 stop you guys from criticizing every single lineup. If Mateo batting ninth is our biggest issue we’re in great shape.

Kinda hoping that’s our starting lineup in 2024, if not sooner.

This would be my favorite lineup of the year if Hicks was swapped for Hays. 

Hays has been one of the worst hitters in baseball the last month and a half of the season.  His Ops since the all star break is .460, even Mateo is at .533.

It is odd how much they sit Westburg. He is one of the best defenders on the team. He is one of the fastest players on the team. He is hitting reasonably well but they just have to play their vets.

Westburg is on a 4.6 bWAR pace over 162 games played compared to 2.0 bWAR for Frazier. The Orioles are a better team when Westburg plays and at this point he should be an everyday player who sits one game a week.

      It would be foolish to discount Burnes value to this team. He needs to be brought back unless the cost becomes absurd.

      Bradish likely misses most of 2025

      Goodbye Brandon Hyde!

      By gtman55 · Posted

      I do get tired of his post game press conferences where he praises the other team's pitching profusely. He definitely isn't fiery, that's for sure. But having said that, he likely isn't getting fired. But, his seat is getting pretty warm and if we don't take the next step in the playoffs next year, he's likely gone.  As much as some of his in game decisions drive me crazy, he isn't the one taking the feeble at bats. The three pitching coaches ( I think they call one guy the offensively coordinator or something) need to go.

      One thing I noticed and don’t care for is…….” We have Bautista coming back so we don’t need to sign All-star FA closer “  and “ since we have Elfin coming back we dont need resign Burnes “ and “ we have Bradish returning from injury so why we need another FA starter ? “  My point is that we can’t count on Bautista , Bradish , Wells , Means & others to return and pick up where they left off .  I advocate Elias to strike hard and fast during upcoming Free Agency season .

      Hey man, It breaks my heart that the O’s destroyed our season of hope. Hyde’s got to go. Watching those post-game excuses and lack of fire is not good for inspiration - club house or fans!. Pathetic. Call out stuff, not play victim. Apparently every team had amazing pitching! (Eye roll). A re-set is going to happen. A few more guys getting experience, a few guys going away, and revamping that horrible bullpen. Easy moves: let Santander walk, don’t waste money on LT contracts for SP - even Burnes, get Alex Bregman! , get more speed!

      Where are the pollyannas?

      By Emory Eagle · Posted

      Division is going to be tough next year.  Rays have reloaded, Red Sox have a new core in place and will likely supplement with a big Fa splash or two, and the Yankees will continue to be the Yankees. Ultimately O’s success or lack thereof will rest on the improvement of their young positional talent, but seems like we need to add some kind of weapon vs left handed pitching.  And will need to either replace or resign Burnes, not something easy to do without significant financial investment.
