Saturday, May 6: Orioles in Atlanta, try to win 8th consecutive series

[Alasdaire]

Sean Murphy is awesome.

[Moose Milligan]

I'd love to know if Frazier went on his own on that steal attempt or Hyde called for it.  Especially with Mateo up, that wasn't a good call.

I had a lot of confidence that even if he got out, Frazier would get the runner in from 3rd.

I don't know when the last time I felt that confident about an Oriole getting a runner in from 3rd with one out.  A long, long time.

And he did.

Eddie Murray?

[Bemorewins]

Perez.... WHY?

[Jagwar]

Can we get one clean inning out of Perez?

[Moose Milligan]

Cionel Perez.

To be honest @Moose Milligan I would be good with Alcantara. But I think that would be asking a little too much. Don't want to get greedy...lol

A guy like Lance Lynn would be interesting.  He’d probably cost nothing prospect-wise because the results haven’t been there this year and he’s making a decent amount of money.  The peripherals look good besides the homers.  Seems like he still has something in the tank.

I can't take it. Too much pressure.

[Moose Milligan]

That's Bautista's job right there.  Sheesh.

Yes. Have you been to Camden lately?

No, regrettably haven't been back sincing leaving Bel Air in 1978. Plan on visiting this summer, though, and looking forward to going to some O's games. 

[Gurgi]

Wow how bad was that pitch from Perez?   LOL

[SteveA]

Had to laugh at Stowers calling for that fly ball.  There wasn't another fielder within 60 feet of him.  I don't know who he thought he was calling off.

Remember how violently Bud Norris used to point up in the air on every fly ball or popup.  I know the pitcher usually does that, but Bud really put effort into it.  We get it Bud, it's a shallow fly ball.

[Moose Milligan]

Goddamit Perez!

[Moose Milligan]

Look at Gunnar!

I  don't want to clog up the game thread with this type of discussion, but why would that be a concern in terms of giving up prospects? We are loaded, have more than anyone else, and have redundancy. 

Lance Lynn is no better than what we have now and in all likelihood actually worse.
