HUH??????? Why would you pull the most effective pitcher we've had on the mound in about 3 games?

Yeah, no, I don't agree with pulling DL Hall there. When you find a reliever who can locate the strikezone more often than not, keep them out there until their arm falls off. I don't care. Don't keep switching relievers every 3 batters. Drives me nuts!

Cardinals will have their first non-winning season since the George W. Bush administration. Orioles 40 games over .500 for the first time since the Jimmy Carter administration. And we aren't

Im the King of anxiety...anyone on the thread knows it..

I think it's interesting that Roy Freaking Firestone is somewhere in comfortable clothes sitting on his couch, drinking a beer, watching the O's and panicking on the Hangout night after night

Pretty sure she married Bruce Willis.

At age 16, Johnson began doing fashion print work and was soon signed by the Wilhelmina agency in New York City.[1] Director Stanley Donen spotted her in a photograph in the fashion biweekly W,[1] and just as her modeling career was beginning, chose her to act in his feature film Blame It on Rio,

Personal life[edit]

From January 1999 until July 2002, Johnson was married to Major League Baseball player Matt Williams

I agree that was dumb. Overmanaging and killing the already overworked pen.

      Where are the pollyannas?

      Hard to argue with a lot of your points. He's had two 1-1 and should have taken Witt over Rutschman and has a poor defensive second baseman with hitting issues with his other one.  He gets one more offseason with bigger pocketbooks. He gets one more year to put up or shutup.

      Sometimes I regret being an Oriole fan

      Baseball is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall all alone. You count on it, rely on it to buffer the passage of time, to keep the memory of sunshine and high skies alive, and then just when the days are all twilight, when you need it most, it stops. A.

      Offer Anthony Santander 3 year 60 million contract

      Let him walk. That pop up with the bases loaded and no outs sort of encapsulates the entire postseason for us. It was a pathetic effort and we ended up with squat in a clutch situation.  The HRs are cool but he doesn't hit for average and is only getting older. And he sucks in the playoffs. Goodbye.

      10/2 Orioles vs Royals Wild Card Game #2

      Is Brandon Hyde going to pull out the “ we just need to do a better job” boilerplate or is he coming up with another way to say the same thing?    It’s easy to be snarky right now. There’s choking under pressure and there’s whatever the team has done over the last couple months. “Choke” doesn’t begin to cover the gag they threw up the last two nights when the season was on the line. Fans leaving the stadium right now aren’t just disappointed, many of them feel betrayed. Hard to blame them. I wonder if Elias might feel the same way.

      Season in a microcosm

      I just can't comprehend how the 2023 team PLUS Corbin Burnes devolved into this pile of excrement. This may be a .500, non-playoff team next year. I didn't expect any sort of magical run this playoff season, but I didn't think they'd get embarrassed AGAIN on the national stage.

      Better yet, where was Adam Frazier when we needed him most.....oh, wait, in the other dugout.    Bases loaded, no one out....sure could have used that guy that Hangouters had to jettison out of here favor of Jackson Holliday.
