Has anyone noticed how much better the Oriole's pitchers ERA is this year when Benboom is catching vs. Rutschman?

 

 

..........I'm just kidding, but someone was bound to say it and actually mean it..... 😀

Benboom did have a 3.40 CERA last year.   The pitchers seem to like him.

That was a great performance last night, especially when the chips were down early and they could have folded after Bradish got knocked out. 

Not only did we deal with Bradish, but I think that win fully erases the tough loss in Boston. Now it’s time for Gibson to get some revenge against a former team tonight. Then Weds will seem just like last year. Next man up. 
 

Let’s get this sweep and come home.

I think seeing Wells and Bradish (I know it wasn't for long) pitch really well was nice to see after the starting pitching in Boston.  There is still reason for optimism this year.  Hopefully Bradish isn't out long and comes back pitching like he did to start that game.

Bautista looked DOMINANT.   Great job by Wells.   We got plenty of breaks on hard hit balls too.

We have to remember that he didn’t have a normal ST. Not surprising that he was shaky his first couple of outings although normal defense behind him and he looks much better.

Orioles showing a little moxie that has been missing here at OH.  Every win is a good one.  Getting back to .500 after an underwhelming showing in Boston is a good feel.  

Orioles will need to get their pitching under control.  This team will be as successful as pitching allows.  Last night was a gusty performance and kudos all around.

I think Opening Day was gustier

Frankly, he looked just fine on Saturday.    Every once in a while someone is going to turn around one his fastballs or a hanging split.   Like you said, with good defense he's 3 for 3 in saves and the bottom line is better.

      Hurricane Milton is looking scarier by the minute

      Just did a bit of a walk. Some decently large braches down, one segment of privacy fence missing and standing water on the property in a low spot.

      Do the Orioles need someone like Machado?

      By EddeeEddee · Posted

      Not that I am in any way full agreement, but this is a classic post.  Doesn't Machado play chess?  Maybe we could get some chess boards in the clubhouse and junk all the legos.  Not all great baseball men are John McGraw bad asses.  Some can be Christy Mathewsons as well, I suppose.  Not that I imagine today's young players much resembling McGraw or Mathewson, but they are the first two contrasting old school types that come to mind.  I will say just based on his postseason alone I'd much rather have Tatis over Machado.

      Hurricane Milton has apparently ripped the roof of the Tropicana Dome to shreds

      Wow, that was so strange to see.  Eerie.

      What's Your Top Priority

      By OriolesMagic83 · Posted

      Well I refuse to believe that only the O's have no players that want extensions.

      Will MASN be among these soon ? MLB taking over TV broadcasts of 3 teams

      By EddeeEddee · Posted

      Customer advocate groups have tried for decades to force the cable companies to allow channel by channel (a la carte) subscriptions, but the cable companies fought this because it would result in far less revenue (than forcing us to pay for a hundred channels we don't watch).  The government refused to intervene, so we've been stuck with the existing business model for all this time.  Streaming is forcing the change because streaming -- for now -- is an a la carte model.   MLB's fear must be this: if the regional sports network cable channel model goes away, will most users pay anywhere close to what these channels made as part of a cable bundle for just one streaming channel where all you watch are Orioles games (or maybe Orioles and Nats games -- whatever the case may be)?  So if you pay $100/month for cable with MASN, you are probably watching at least a few other channels too.  But will you pay $15/month (or whatever the price may be) just to watch the Orioles -- even during the months when there is no baseball?  The existing basic cable model has been quite stable because people tend to watch at least 5 or 6 channels.  They're reluctant to cancel their whole cable package just because baseball season is over -- or they've been too busy to watch many games this season.  But with a single streaming channel of just baseball there is bound to be a far more unstable revenue base.  All the streaming channels are already dealing with this problem.  I think MLB is maybe reluctant to go all in on streaming for this reason.  Perhaps they're looking for new different model that could allow them to bundle individual team channels with Netflix, or Prime, or maybe with your cell phone plan or something else.  This could give them some stability, but it could also be a turn off for the more hardcore fans who just want the Orioles and little else.  It will be interesting to see how this all shakes out and if MLB, and the Orioles, will prosper or suffer as a result.
