That double was slightly below replacement level.

Never realized how important those graphics were. Don’t know what you got til it’s gone.

We all hate to lose to the Yankees or blow leads to the Yankees, but to do it on an 0-2 pitch after getting ahead with two 100 MPH fastballs?  The next pitch is either another 100 MPH fastball or

Maybe its because he throw between 89-90 mph?

Yeah, Givens used to be 95-96 when we had him originally.  This is not the same animal.  I think I did see him around 93 during his first appearance this year.  Hopefully that will be the norm.

No, no. You're totally irrational. Just not about a guy scaring you that throw 90-91. :D

He throwing a sinker and look a  little like  a right-handed Bleire.

I've been the voice of reason in this thread, brother haha.

      Elias: It's on me

      This is a really good post and I very much appreciate the optimism.  I am hoping to spend the offseason working on more effective ways to enjoy the team and to hopefully remember why I have loved them more than any other sports team for over 40 years. While the loss on Wednesday is not anywhere near my top 5 of worst Orioles losses ever (especially since 1997 and 2014 don't leave much room for anything else), I can genuinely say that I got less enjoyment out of this particular team and season than any that I can ever remember. From an entertainment standpoint, it just wasn't there at all for me this year. And even though it is probably immature, I don't know of a better word than resentment for how I felt towards these guys as these last three and a half months have played out. The two images that I will always have of this season are Cowser whiffing on the pitch that broke his hand and Adley looking at that 2-0 meatball with the bases loaded in Game 2. Those pictures captured the 2024 Orioles perfectly. Hoping my now much lower expectations bring more enjoyment in 2025.

      O's target? Roki Sasaki

      They bid on anyone with a posting fee yet? Only one team didn't even bother to make an offer for Ohtani.

      Hasn't this narrative been retired yet?  It should be.

      I’ve been in a mild state of sports depression since Wednesday. Angry and disappointed at what felt like, for me personally, the worst Orioles loss of my life time. But as I drove up to my house today, I looked at my Orioles flag, and I felt love. Love for the Orioles and love for the guys on this team. I remember getting a little emotional in 2018 when the previous core got blown up. I wondered if I’d be as invested with a new cropping of players. Well dammit, I ride with these dudes. They’ve ripped my heart out, but I believe in them. They’re young, they’re talented, and they play for each other. Growth is often not linear. Maybe Hyde can adjust, maybe he can’t. There’s plenty of questions now. It’s going to be long wait. And I have no idea if this team capitalizes on their potential. But I’ll be rooting for it. Because I love Baltimore, I love the Orioles, and I love these guys. I still don’t want to take down my flag just yet…. Go O’s!
