Kevin Brown

I don’t get the complaining about random stories and jokes occasionally. It’s complaining just to complain. Listen to a few other local broadcasts on MLB TV. They all have a similar dynamic and all have silly sidetracks, from the PBP guy and a sideline reporter. Nothing unusual. And Kevin and Ben are far better than most, though there are some good tandems out there. 
 

Watching other teams play a little also puts the Os in perspective from several angles. All the issues you think the Os have (fifth starter, last guy on the bench, bullpen issues, whatever) I guarantee you fans of every team feel the same way about their team.

Tonight’s exchange was a complete nothing burger in my opinion.  It came up because the pitcher on the mound had a wedding at some fancy ski resort and the wedding was covered by Vogue.  It’s not like Brown just brought up fancy ski resort weddings for no reason.  

Agreed. I thought it was just really funny. I like their dynamic, it makes it so much more fun that they are polar opposites and rib each other. Plus, Kevin Brown is hilarious!

I have a relative that complains about something in every email they send. It must be some sort of therapy for them. Maybe OH is a Therapy Board for some. 😀 Plus, I really don't think Ben needs anyone defending him! Particularly with KB who I really like.

Feels like every time KB makes me laugh, I can almost guarantee that Moose will be complaining about it in the game thread 🤣

Dude, c’mon. When he made the wildly astute assessment that we used three relievers in a row that had four letter last names, you can’t tell me that wasn’t worth a giant eye roll.

I didn't have an inclination to do so, but I knew you would 🤷‍♂️

I just imagine trying to fill three hours while coming off as entertaining, and I tip my cap.

Unfortunately, your posts complaining about Kevin Brown are worth giant eye rolls.  😄

Just down 2-3 shots before the first inning like Gary would, and see where the night would take you.

And here I was thinking his Hays-Holliday-Henderson Triple H mention was the moment of the night.

    • The very concept is baffling  You are supposed to hit a round ball with an oblong bat and hit it Square.  That is very hard to do  No wonder only a very small % of people on the planet can do it very good.
    • I know the Brewers are in 1st, but I wonder if they'd be interested in trading Devin Williams if it was primarily MLB pieces being swapped. Looking at their roster, I feel they could use an OF and maybe a 1B/DH lefty bat.  When the time comes, I wonder if something built around around Williams for Ohearn, Santander could come into play? Depends on performance and need closer to All Star Break.  If Milwaukee thinks they can make a run and Williams was healthy, Id probably not trade him
    • I have long said that baseball is the ultimate reality show because you just never know what will happen, what personalities will emerge, what fresh talent will shine through.    Very curious to see the show Netflix is doing with the Red Sox this year. I don’t think it will be the last of its kind because behind the scenes of a MLB team for a season is endless drama. 
    • And it really goes hand in hand. He is hanging in there more this year in ABs, getting into deeper counts so he gets a chance to hit some mistakes. That AB last night was the perfect example of it. If my memory serves he laid off one, and fouled off one prior to the hanger.
    • He is having a better year statistically. He doesn’t have a better arm. 
    • One thing I love about baseball is its constant capacity to surprise you.   I feel like in other sports, players kind of are who they are.   You don’t see basketball players score 15 points per game one year and 27 the next, dropping back to 21 the following year.  You don’t see healthy wide receivers go from 60 catches to 100, then back to 70.   Hockey players don’t score 25 goals one season and 50 the next, then 35.    But in baseball, crazy fluctuation and guys coming out of nowhere is kind of par for the course.  Sure, there are some players who are very consistent from year to year, but it feels like team success is built largely on having several guys suddenly have career years, or players popping out of nowhere.    For the Orioles, nobody had Mateo doing what he’s doing.  Maybe 5% of fans (if that) could have even told you that Albert Suarez was on our roster when spring training started.  By the same token, I’m sure nobody foresaw Hays and Mullins being as awful as they’ve been.   Watching Tampa, last year a whole bunch of their hitters had career years.  This year, most of those same guys are crapping the bed.  But will it continue?  Stay tuned! Anyway, I love the unpredictable nature of the game and can’t wait to see what will happen next.
