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.

    • Now overall I notice 29 K's in 17 innings. That ratio of 1.7 is top of the line for a starter!
    • Urias looks pretty cooked too though, and he's not providing the kind of defensive flexibility that Mateo is, and he doesn't have very good splits for platooning.  At least for 2023 and 2024 Mateo has had good platoon splits.
    • SSS but Holliday was playing incredible defense after like the first game or two when he seemed to have some jitters.  He had +3 OAA in a very short span.  Mateo has looked a little awkward at 2nd to be honest, and he's not the best at making the double play turn.
    • Hoping for a speedy recovery. That all happened fast. Not my initial impression reading the write up.
    • McCann looks cooked but he's in his last year and our options at backup C aren't great unless we're willing to trade for one.  But I'm not giving up a lot for a backup C.   I'd like to find a replacement for Urias.  He didn't look great last year and he's being thrust into a role that he's not really cut out for right now.  I don't think he's getting the 2022 magic back.  Maybe Westburg can go to 3rd full time and one of our 5 AAA 2nd basemen can work in with Mateo at 2nd.
    • I quoted myself, because I wanted to share something with you all.  I have memory issues.  Nothing full blown or anything, but I don't recall things nearly as well as I once did.  I mention this because it occurred to me that I posted a very similar thing about McCann last year, and he performed notably better in the 2nd half.  At least I believe so.   It's not that I feel I'm exactly wrong about McCann, but rather that he showed himself to be better just last season and could do so again.  I hope so. Memory issues are nothing to be ashamed of, though I'd be pretending if it didn't bother me.  I've been dealing with this for maybe five years or so, though it gets worse every year.  At 59, that's younger than most that have such issues.   I'm sure in a forum as populated as this one, there could be others going through what I am.  It is what it is... it's life, and I hope you're all doing your best with it. 
    • Estrada and Tejada both continued their recent surges today.  Estrada was 2 for 4 with a double, while Tejada was 3 for 3  with a homer.  Tejada has his OPS up to .737, not bad for a league where .654 is average.  Estrada is at .628 and climbing.
