Saturday afternoon July 22: Orioles send Greyson Rodriguez to the mound vs Rays

Good lord Mateo. Tough hop but that just can't happen 

This all goes back to the inability to tack on runs vs their worst relivers

[Gurgi]

Big Fuji isnt really an improvement.

That’s been a strike for the Rays all night too.

Maybe the Rays' catcher is doing a better job of framing?

But really the biggest issue is reading your BP arms better.  Danny struggling,  Cano arm slot, Fuji new.   You can’t just run people out there and hope it works.  At least go yell at the ump!

Danny struggling?   DIdn't he pitch 2.1 perfect innings in his last outing?

That was basically the "Ryan McKenna" moment for Mateo that will seal his fate.

[Moshagge3]

Sickening.

[baltfan]

Hyde should have pitched Fuji the first time he warmed him up.  He is used to being a starter. And Mateo has to make that play.  I think Fuji will be ok, but he needs some easier opportunities to settle in. 

[Mooreisbetter27]

Gunnar prob makes that play.

Ballgame 

[TopGunnar]

#@$% this team. #@$% Mateo and #@$% this bullpen. 

[purplepittabread88]

That felt like the game right there. We haven’t been able to hit anything outside the 4th 

[eddie83]

Should have been ruled an error. 

[Roy Firestone]

That was a PLAYABLE ball for Mateo...this is another time his glove DINT come through...

[Aristotelian]

One too many FB. Tough play but Mateo is supposed to be our defense guy, he has to make that.

Mateo shouldn’t be on the roster if he’s not making that play. 

It’s time to make a trade…
