He's terrible.  When the O's braintrust and players came out to talk to him I believe in the 4th?  Everyone was talking except the for pitcher.  He looked down and then walked away.

 

Get rid of the guy.  Bad mojo.

He wasn't good -- he gave up 8 hits, 5 runs, a homer and a walk, and 3 strikeouts over 3.1 innings. BUT, just look at how poorly the other pitchers we sent tonight performed. In context, maybe it was just that the Sux were hitting really well.

Perez: 1 IP, 3 hits, 1 run, 1 strikeout (lousy)

Fuji: 1.2 IP, 1 strikeout (the best pitching performance from either team in this game tbh)

Webb: 0.2 IP, 3 hits, 3 runs, 1 strikeout (putrid)

Coulombe: 0.2 IP, 3 hits (bad)

Lopez: 0.2 IP, 2 hits, 2 strikeouts (bad)

Cano: 1 IP, 4 hits, 3 runs, 1 walk (terrible)

We're just lucky that more of those hits weren't doubles and home runs, or strung together in the same inning, or this game would have looked more like 20-13 Sux.

Is "putrid" worse than "terrible" on this scale?  😄

Other than Fuji, all the pitching was bad... and that's on both sides.  I think because the BoSux have had a marginal year, many forget how good a hitting team they are.  Especially when they're on, as they clearly were last night with an historic 23 hit 12 run performance. 

What's amazing to me is how our pitchers kept the ball in the park.  Maybe it wasn't ALL them, but they certainly deserve some credit.  The fielders, after a shaky start, rallied to tighten themselves up keeping hitters to singles and the occasional true double not allowing many advances on fly outs.  All of that was important for this W.

I thought it was interesting that the 3B coach decided not to test Hays on the Red Sox’s final hit.   Could’ve been the game-tying run, but the coach had too much respect for Hays’ arm.  The runner looked like he had a decent chance rounding 3B.

Looked to me like he would have been out by a couple of steps.  The throw was right online.  Only issue would have been if would hit runner.

The word has been out,  don't run on Hays. Run on Mullins.

    • Mayo coming back from injury could have his debut in Baltimore delayed. 
    • Wasn't a huge fan of his swing for that last out today but coming in to pinch hit with 2 outs isn't easy.
    • Interpreting Malike's comment that way is theoretically possible, but I didn't take it that way--didn't feel that shade was being thrown on me at all. But thanks for the concern.
    • People are being a bit ridiculous with the holier than thou takes criticizing a little humor. I am not saying what happened couldn’t cause a significant concussion, but it would be a bit of a fluke if it did. Mullins barely hit him with the bat and he had a helmet on. The fact that it was in the back of the head did make him more vulnerable, but this wasn’t the type of thing you see and think he was lucky to be alive.  Guys have probably hit their heads harder on the top of the dugout or on the fence making catches.  And note this comes from someone whose son has suffered severe concussions and who is well aware of the dangers associated with them. In short, people need to lighten up a bit on guys like Roy.  It was a little gallows humor. 
    • Yeah, you read that wrong. LA2 is one of my favorite posters here and he knows it. No harm, no foul. If you aren't familiar with the game threads, it doesn't matter what the team is doing, people complain about it and people did make that same joke in the game thread long before Roy said it here. Game thread in summary - when the O's are not doing well, it's insufferable, when they are doing well, it's mildly less insufferable. There, that wasn't hard. I'd appreciate it if you didn't assume I'm throwing shade at people. I'll leave that up to you to do, you're really good at it.
    • Comp a. Like Gunnar, and beavers…
    • Wasn't Westburg a 2nd round draft pick?  It's a little early to judge last year's draft.
