Looks like Gunnar has turned the tables for us, we are now a much better team.

He's an 0 for 25 away from people wanting him back in AAA.

Imagine when Mullins returns....

That’s like 2 people. And one of them suddenly should go on a missing person list cause he hasn’t been posting curiously.

Kremer needed a quick 1 2 3 inning. Might be able to go 6 now

[86this]

So we know Kremer is not going the distance.  Who comes in?  Voth?  Please save Cano and Bautista for the crucial innings.

Triple-A Update.  Zimmermann tosses 9-inning shutout.  Tides win 3-0,

Holy crap, nice!

Last time I was at a minor league game, I watched Bowie pitch a combined no-hitter earlier this year.

I’m glad we didn’t get him.  3/63 for maybe a slightly better Kyle Gibson. 

Yup. Some fans want to bust on the front office for sticking to a budget and being careful with their investments, but based on the results if the big money 2023 free agent class this far, Mike Ellas's front office has proven to be right to stick to their guns with team friendly offers and be strategic in their signings. 

It's about the results, not the big splash.

The Orioles are on their way to a 43-24 record if they can hold the Blue Jays off right now.  And that's in spite of injuries and 2 starting pitchers having to be demoted.

A pitcher threw 9 innings in a game?!?!?

At some point they need work. I don't know if it's Voth, but another laugher would be nice, so just get outs whoever it is.

Decent chance we won't need Cano and Bautista at all tonight (I hope).

[Gurgi]

Can anyone give me a logical reason why the Orioles are so much better this year?

Still, with Hyde, you never know.  They needed work is what they'll say.

Because they are a talented team. That's about as logical as I can get.

About Gunnar “anything he hits… he destroys!”
