Is it that you don't like ERod? His contract? Or that you love Westburg that much?

I like Westburg that much. There's no reason that he's not in Baltimore right now. None. 

 

I'll probably turn out to be wrong, but I thought he was every bit of the prospect that Gunnar was when I first saw them both. Obviously Gunnar went wild up the lists last year but I'm still pretty strong on Westburg.

Well, at least we didn't get a perfect game thrown against us. 

At least we're not losing.

Mateo's wild dash ties it up!

I was wondering why Mateo didn’t swipe 2nd.  I guess it didn’t matter

So are you saying if the Orioles were winning 4-1, you would not use Bautista today for the ninth? 

It is more important for him to pitch with runners on in my opinion to "save" the game than to get a statistical save in a three run game. 

I get your point. I just disagree. Yes he's a closer and that's his role. So yes in the 9th but not the 8th in the regular season.

Even if he preserves the lead and we take a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the 8th, we would then need someone else to close the game and Cano is supposedly unavailable today. So there's that to consider.

If we are in a pennant race in September/October and there's "no tomorrow" I'm all with your approach. Just not in April against DET.

Wow what a send!! Hyde actually pushed the right buttons PH Santander there. Credit where credit is due.

Tony's got a pair on him, boy.
