WTF, I did not think that was a HR.

Ball might be jumping today. We shall see.

At the beginning of the season, I would have certainly disagreed (as some know I was advocated for the O's to try to acquire him). But I'm going to have to take the L and say I was completely wrong on that one! By the time June came and went, I did a 180 and changed my mind. Cease has had a really bad year, terrible when compared to last season,

There is no way the CHI SOX could get anything close to a top 20 prospect for him now, let alone #1.

Props to you for admitting you were incorrect...at least incorrect in the moment.  No one around here likes to say they were wrong about something.

I will say there's a lot to like about Cease and it's puzzling as to why he's so bad.  He has the tools to be much better.

Why can't we have nice things on a workday afternoon?

[Roy Firestone]

give back runs and suddenly Gibson looks vulnerable..

I know I'm over reacting, but man it seems like every time we have a big inning, we always give up a run in the next 1/2 inning.

Cease is less scary every time I see him.

Cease's 2022 season is the outlier in his body of work.

Still no outs.

[justD]

Didn't this happen in his last outing?  Everyone was saying he was just having a bad game or a bad inning or whatever. 

Please don't let Westburg be injured on top of Gibson collapsing so early. (Sorry Jagwar for the negativity.../s)

You are, but, I will say it happens enough that it seems like it's every time.

[Roy Firestone]

lots of pitches...poor inning..now another 3-2 count...

Gibson got 4 outs on 33 ptches already.  $ runs is not enough.

[Roy Firestone]

TOO MANY PITCHES

[oriolediehard]

4 runs

[O's84]

Gibson is utter trash.  Against an awful offense to boot.

[clapdiddy]

Hopefully, this will be Gibson's bad inning.   He seems to have one just about every game where he totally loses command.
