Man, we'll always have that pre-injury Bowie Baumann. He was quite the prospect. 

[Tony-OH]

Lol, walked the guy before Devers to load the bases. Just no command.

No...it was sarcasm.

No it wasn't.

Unless you think the bullpen isn't blown out.

Sarcasm would be, "At least the bullpen is killin' it!"

I'm trying to come up with a game I've enjoyed watching less than this one and coming up empty.

I really don't believe they're blown out. Just lack talent. However going into Texas tomorrow they may actually be blown out in the first week .

I'm sure there was at least 30 from 2018 alone.

Ahh OK.  I think they aren't that talented and in trouble.

Good for him, but that guy would never ever ever had come here. He rejected Atlanta for being too small-time for him.

Same. Even with Tate and Givens there's a lot of room for regression.

Nick Vespi and Yennier Cano to the rescue(?)

The 1st two once the Orioles got big leads? 

The Orioles better keep hitting because this pen is awful. Losing Tate and Givens was worse than we thought, but honestly, Hyde tends to use everyone for an inning here and there instead of having someone try and eat three innings and fully resting a guy. 

Gotta give the Red Sox some credit though. They went out and spent and got some more impact talent.. Elias said it was "lift off" then basically stood pat. Now whether that was because he got a budget that made him do that, or his risk aversion, but it's clear what team improved more this offseason.

Sure, it was just the one guy I would have liked even if I knew it wouldn't happen.
