Thursday afternoon August 3: new Oriole Jack Flaherty takes on old Oriole Kevin Gausman

[FlaO'sFan]

Nice.

Alright Jack.. nice way to work out of that.

Now let's pound Gausman around a bit

[Moose Milligan]

Not knowing how many outs there are is embarrassing.  Who are these cheesedicks?

He had Chapman down 0-2 in a big spot and actually finished him off. Maybe he's not such a good fit for the clubhouse culture.

[Malike]

I expect an adjustment period with Flaherty and our catchers.

Interesting thing about Matt Chapman is, he's been a Blue Jay for a couple years now, and he's a good player, and I haven't yet started hating him the way I do must guys who put on that uniform.

All it took was different pitching coach.

Looked like a late strike call and Adley threw down right away and by that time nobody was looking at the ump but the plays in front of them.

Umps almost never call a strike when the catcher comes up throwing, no matter how center-cut the pitch is. I think it was sensible to play through.

Anyone actually know much about what to expect from Flaherty?  I hate to admit it but I am not really up on what he does.

Springer is slumping bad.  Thank god.

Your saying he’s an east out  ?

Anyone would look like a great guy replacing Josh Donaldson.
