Wednesday Afternoon June 21: Orioles send the MLB WHIP leader to the mound to try to sweep the Rays

Mateo depreciation thread? 

[Spakman]

Mateo can simply not play anymore

Instant K Mateo!

[Billy F-Face3]

I had a feeling that was an out as soon as Mateo walked to the plate before any pitch was thrown. Frustrating.

[Moose Milligan]

This game is far from over, but it sure is ugly.  It sucks to have the Mariners next, they always seem to have our number.  Two weeks ago I would have said that the Reds would be a welcome respite, but now all of a sudden they're the Elly De La Cruz show and have won 10 straight.  

Figuring out a way to come back and win this game would be huge.

Mateo K. Rinse & repeat

Why does Mateo even come to the plate? How much longer does this go on??

Wells is somewhere far,  far away from Florida, mentally.   His attention is somewhere other than this game.  I wonder if he has something going on in his personal life?

So is the IF defense.   E on Wells, Mateo forgets cutoff (had a throwback to first), Gunnar breaks on the grounder instead of covering third.  What an awful inning!!

[Hank Scorpio]

Uh... good effort boys.

One Mountcastle not enough,right Jorge?

[Billy F-Face3]

I think Gunnar might be a night owl. He looks tired during early day games.

WilL be interesting to see if Wells can settle down and get through 5 like Glasnow did last night.

On the bright side, Urias closed the gap. We're only 3 runs from tying it up in the 3rd inning. Still 6 innings to play.

And we are facing a rookie pitcher.

He’s got some heavy bags under those eyes
