Wednesday, July 5: Colton Cowser makes major league debut as O's try to right the ship in NY

[Gofannon]

I am not superstitious, just a little bit stitious.  About a half an hour ago, I realized that I changed from WBAL to 98 Rock about a month ago and things have been an uphill battle since.  I changed back to WBAL when Gunnar threw a ball off the cameraman's face, and we immediately scored 4 runs.  I'm not saying, I'm just saying.

If we lose this game, please pretend I never posted this.

Come on Dean…

Kremer is very intense on and off the mound during his game day starts. I doubt there was anything Hyde was going to say to him. I think everyone knew that was Kremer's last batter regardless of the result.

[Sydnor]

Dean is really good when he can command the ball. I wish he could do it consistently.

This lineup is really getting some depth to it.

Ok. Maybe gets moved now. There were people on here who wanted Hays/Santander/Mullins moved. I even thought depending on return you could justify it. Elias let things play out. This idea the kids were “blocked” was all noise. 

I swear I saw a DFA Santander post. Trades are mercurial things, but strictly from the standpoint of trading my young position player haul for MLB pitching at the deadline, I think I would rather have shiny new in box prospects instead of opened guys perhaps trying to figure out the show.  

[Mooreisbetter27]

What a great eye. I love having another guy that can see the ball so well.

Should only get better.

Man, love his patience at the plate.

[justD]

Lead-off walk.  I'll take it.

The Tides have become the Orioles.  It’s a beautiful thing.

Really nice bounce back start for Kremer. I was worried in the 5th when he kept looking at his finger like he had a blister, but he really settled in. Great job Dean!

I thought the delay might mess with him too. Solid effort.

You may have. Not sure I recall that. I don’t think it was crazy to move any of them. I have just thought all along Elias wanted his depth and over time things would work out.
