Friday, June 30: Orioles vs Twins with Floppy Hats, Smog, and Shaq

[O's84]

Kremer might not make it through 4 at this rate.

[Tony-OH]

5-0, with the Orioles putting up 1-hit and the announcers are playing around with hats? 

It's all garbage. This team has not played well for awhile now. But hey, keep running out a bunch of 5th starters and hope Wells continues to over achieve!

The wins have owned the Orioles ever since I’ve been watching baseball

Can't argue with that.  I only have followed the O's closely 25 years.  I just thought it was a joke to say the Twins don't have anything

[Moose Milligan]

Someone just stop Kevin Brown.

Kremer... take a seat

I mean yeah.  We did nothing to upgrade the pitching.  2023 Gibson vs 2022 Lyles is a wash.  Irvin trade I liked but even if he gets right it's still a back of the rotation starter.  That's the pitching upgrade of the offseason.  A back of the rotation starter.... that's it.

This is so painful to watch.

Kremer made sure to pitch his worst in front of 40.000 fans.

I think the broadcast guys wearing "rally" floppy hats will be a keeper clip for a montage on a good day when the team is playing better and they want good vibes to remember the season by.

Why?  He's not stinking out the stadium.  It's the guys in the softball uniforms.

[ArtVanDelay]

I would like to never see Kremer throw another pitch as an Oriole but unfortunately we have no one better.

Nope, he shat his pants as well. Seems to be the thing to do of late for Orioles starters. Embarrassing effort. This team is so bad need of starting pitching and it was just a matter of time until that was apparent. Well, it's apparent and we knew this coming into this year but Elias passed on acquiring a good starter this offseason.

[justD]

Well, Zimmermann looked pretty good his last time out.  So maybe if we can just get some shut-down pitching for a bit, the guys can rally and get us back into it. 

[Tony-OH]

This is why I refuse to buy tickets to go see the Orioles still. Until Elias goes out and acquires true impact starting pitching you have to worry about these guys just imploding on any night. But yeah, Norfolk is really good like that matters.

[Billy F-Face3]

Good tracking by Hays to catch that.
