I had to look up what cromulent meant.

I knew someone would have to.

Geez people.  Bradish gave up a run this inning to the heart of the order to one of the best offenses in baseball and everyone in this thread is talking about like he's garbage.  Pathetic bunch of fans.

He's got probably the second best arsenal of pitches of anyone in the rotation, he's barely been in the majors a year, he's even with Spencer Strider through 4 innings, and there's nothing but negative talk on this game thread about him.

Why would you expect people who watch almost every game to be the calm type?  You know the word Fan comes from FANATIC?  We cant help it.  You really expect total sane calm debate?  

[FlaO'sFan]

Man, that was a quick inning.

[NCRaven]

Cedric having a heck of a game.

It's a perfectly cromulent word.

[Moose Milligan]

Dammit.

Still not over Stowers giving a one pitch out.  Had he been a bit more patient, maybe Strider hits 100 pitches in that inning.

The game threads are always 90% negative unless the O’s have a big lead.  It’s a place to vent.  There’s not much rational discussion going on here.

[SteveA]

Now they're going to get 6 out of Strider.

A game thread is for useless venting...I dont apologize for mood swings with my team...

If you're negative in the game thread you can never be disappointed, only pleasantly surprised.

Try this. Understand that the Orioles are not going to run the table the rest of the season and they are, in fact, going to lose some games. It makes watching the games much more enjoyable when you have reasonable expectations that they aren't going to be perfect every night.

I feel like I need to give these announcers some tidbits to mention:

Urias was a Gold Glove third baseman last year

Cedric Mullins was a 30-30 guy two years ago

96 pitches... might come back out.
