Not suffering from vertigo helps.

Oh look! Here's a thread where SG made the same joke and not only did you not call him out, you made another joke in response.

Clearly your issue is with me personally and not what I said.

I think it was Tony that said Denoyer would be the next player off the island.   He said he had regressed.

Mounty may have had this coming on for a while and be the reason they promoted Lester.  Now they have OHearn and Lester at 1B.

Really wish someone in the media would push for better answers on the call up thing.A third catcher again is just stupid. 

I really don't get this organization. We lose a bat, and we replace it with... another third catcher.

You're right. This makes your comment so much better.

I took a shot at the owner.

I didn't make light of an illness or injury.

It's very likely that Kolosvary was already in the locker room on the taxi squad and they didn't have time to get another guy here before the game once they decided to IL Mounty. He's probably just here for the day and I'll go ahead and hope he's cut tomorrow for Westburg, Cowser, or Ortiz.

I mean who else would they replace him with? Something drastic must have changed for Mounty to go from doing “better” to being placed on the IL in a matter of a few hours. Norfolk had a 6:35pm game at home, there was no way they would be able to get a player up that quickly to fill the 26 man spot.

Expect a quick stay by Kolozsvary who will likely be DFA’d and pass through waivers. DFA’ing Denoyer opened a 40 man spot for Kolozsvary to come up quickly who must have been on the taxi squad with the team. Likely will see another move tomorrow, which will hopefully be one of the young prospects.

I think the "better" was spin.

It seems like they view the 26th roster spot as a place to rot and mainly use it for players they don't care about.

This is my hope as well.

Although tbf I'm not really sure if Westburg came up where he'd play, O'hearn has clearly earned playing time at this point, Frazier is playing well, maybe put Mateo on the bench

I severely doubt Westburg or Cowser gets here until the Orioles are committed to playing them at least most days. They have made it fairly clear they aren’t doing that, yet.

I think it’s pretty obvious Cowser & Westburg will not be up until the date that was decided well before the season started.  I don’t think an injury, great play, or any other occurrence is going to expedite their call up.   Not that I agree with what they are doing, but not gonna hold my breath and get bent out of shape that they aren’t here yet.

It would be significantly more difficult to stomach if they were struggling offensively, like they were a couple weeks ago.

    • The Achilles heel for this team is going to be the unit that doesn't step up in the postseason. I can easily see scenarios where: the bullpen is hot and provides good performances but the offense sputters and isn't clutch the offense comes up big but the bullpen blows games late starting pitching tosses some clunkers (not really likely with Burnes and Eflin) and they can't recover the defense sucks and gives opponents extra outs to work with, blowing games open when the bullpen or SP would have been able to escape and continue We've seen all of these units falter at one point or another during this season.  We've also seen all of these units perform very well at different times throughout the season.  So, we'll see what turns out to be the Achilles heel for the Orioles in the playoffs starting next week.
    • I agree I missed the mark on a correct forum, and ask a moderator to please relocate to Rants as that game annoyed me yesterday. I appreciate the strong moderators here and know I'm not one of them.     Sorry for making it worse at a tough moment.
    • Nail hit on head. It really comes down to the offense in the playoffs for us. I think our pitching is good enough overall especially the starters. Shaky sometimes sure, but they can hold their own most of the time. If we don't bring our "A" hitting game in the playoffs we won't go far.
    • The bullpen has warts for sure, but if this offense doesn't figure out how to hit good pitching in the playoffs, the bullpen won't matter. Even I got a little excited when they put 5 and 9 up on the board Tues and Wed, and then it crashed back to reality last night when I remembered they were facing Schmidt and Stroman. When facing a real ace like Cole they were completely shut down. What's gonna happen next week when they face Skubal, Reagins, and/or Lugo? The mediocre bullpen won't matter if they can't figure out how to score some runs off pitchers like that...
    • Why carry four 1 inning guys over a LH long option? Cionel stinks and should not be on the roster over Povich when you still have Akin, Coulombe and Soto.
    • Really would be nice to win tonight OR have DET lose so then they can play around Sat/Sun when the games would have no bearing on the seeding. Dont want this to come down to Sunday and having to win to get the 4 seed or then there will be some tough decisions that have to be made.
    • Looking for a big performance from him next week. This is why he’s here.
