Checking in from section 122.  Weather is sunny without a cloud in the sky.   Let’s Go O’s!

Bring Vespi out. Do not bring Fuji in.

So you would be happier if he had had a clean 3rd, then given up a run this inning when it isn't a "give-back" run?

It would still be 1-1.  

I mean, I root for our pitcher to have a shutout inning every inning.   But we are facing MLB hitters, on a potential playoff team.   They are going to score once in a while.  If it happens to come the inning after we scored, it isn't any worse.

You’re right.  And yet, it still pisses me off when it happens.

Did you get tested for Covid?

It's really making the rounds around here again.

Yes, after 5 days I finally broke down and went to urgent care.   Tested negative for Covid and strep.   So it was truly just a bad cold.   They usually don't take so long to go away.

Started coming on last Saturday.   I went to the O's game anyway because I already had tickets.  Was really bad Sun/Mon/Tue, took Mon & Tue off work.  Went to work all day Wednesday, it wiped me out and the sore throat and congestion came back as bad as ever Wednesday night so I went to urgent care Thursday, figured it was time to see if it was really just a cold.   And it was.

Worked Friday, went out for lunch and a few beers with a friend from Tampa who was in DC on business yesterday afternoon (but was pretty worn out and didn't bother with dinner once home last nigh t).   Feel the best today than I have in our a week.

Every since I started using one of these a few years ago (dust allergy) I've not had any cold last more than a few days.

Of course getting my sinus cavity scooped out might be more of a factor.

He has more RBIs than Santander, who leads the O's.

You do know that has nothing to do with anything, right? Tell us how many chances Suarez has had with RISP and then do the same for Santander if you want to make the argument he's better in that situation. Ah, I'll do it for you. Suarez has had 156 with RISP and Santander 102. .279 for Suarez, .287 for Santander.

It doesn't matter. He's the best they have. Play the odds with the catcher hitting .226 behind him.

      Yeah I'm all for sportsmanship but seeing 'Congratulations Yankees' at or near the top of the board is sickening, not gonna lie.  There is no high road when it comes to these clowns.  Boone's constant whining, the well-documented HP ump favoritism (I don't care if its framing or whatever, its happening, and its annoying AF), the whining about Judge getting hit on the hand while their guys constantly pitch inside including of course the Kjerstad play where they were literally cutting up on the bench as he lay prone on home plate, the ginormous payroll, the incredibly entitled fan base booing at pitches being called balls that are three inches off the plate, that stupid roll call, that stupid whistle after strikeouts, the stupid national media drooling over a Judge v Ohtani WS possibility, Nestor Cortes and his dumb mustache, the mediocre stadium that is revered simply because its called Yankee Stadium, the ridiculously short RF porch, the Soto Shuffle or whatever the hell it is. Congratulations my ass.  Screw those dudes.

      Here's the deal. I doubt anyone on the Yankee's board congradulated us last year. This year they won the East. Whippie for them. It's like saying the IRS won tax season. IF, we do anything in the playoffs, we may meet again. But there are some significant hurdles before that. And they could easily lose along the way. Cleveland, Houston, Detroit, and KC are no walk in the park. I'll root for the O's to go as far as they can and that the Yankees are one and done. We are in. I hope we win one more so we play the opening round in Oriole Park. If not, we are still in and have to do what we got to do to go anywhere. Two years in a row. While the Red Sox, Blue Jays, and Tampa sleep. Year two with a heck of a lot more obstacles. This may not be a WS year but we are competitive, young, and a hell of a lot classier than that bunch in the Bronx.

      The Achilles heel for this team is the bullpen

      The usage of Cano last night was poor, I don't even blame him really.  Yankees had 9-1-2 coming up, and Torres is well known (based on the telecast) to hit Cano well, and hit sinkers well.  He laced that hit to RF off him on Tuesday where the Yanks screwed up the baserunning.  And Soto got a hit off him that same inning.  So it was pretty predictable that these guys were going to tee off when he came in, and that's exactly what happened. Not to mention he's pitched a lot recently, and Burnes should have pitched another inning anyway.  Just baffling decisions by Hyde last night, and I'm not one to generally question those types of things.  Even if the Burnes thing was pre-ordained, the choice of Cano for that moment was terrible.

      Why is this thread on the Oriole Talk section.    It probably does not belong on the OriolesHangout  at all but if it stays it should be on the MLB section.

      If there's two outs and its not Judge in the hole, I'm probably going with Perez, crossing my fingers he gets the lefty, and then starting fresh the next inning with Coulombe or someone else.  If there's one out, I'm going w/ Coulombe.
