It might not be so bad if the top five can do some damage. The bottom four have done jack lately. So that might not be quite fair to Mateo. -
Fun Fact. In 2018 at the age of 21 in his first 67 games at Frederick (A+), McKenna did this: 301 PA .377 BA .467 OBP .556 SLG 37 walks 45 strikeouts One of the most impressive runs an O’s minor leaguer has ever had. -

Gotta give Adley a full day off, though I bet he makes a pinch hitting appearance late in this game. This isn’t a terrible Sunday lineup, but they’ve gotta score some runs for Burnes who they’ve let down in a big way lately. -

Fun Fact(s): The word "oriole" comes from the Latin word aureolus, which means "golden". Orioles are part of the Icteridae family, which also includes meadowlarks, bobolinks, grackles, and blackbirds. Baltimore orioles can live up to 11 years in the wild, and 14 years in human care. Bobolinks and grackles? Aren't they from a Dr. Suess book? 😁 -

That’s right. But there’s that old adage that gets attributed to different people throughout baseball history with different numbers; every team wins 40 games and loses 40 games, it’s what you do with the remaining 82 that counts. Or 60/60 remaining 42. But the point stands. There are games where you’re just out of it from the early innings and you get beat. There are games where you coast to a win, having jumped out to a big lead and the other team never fights back. But the there are the games you could have won, maybe even should have won and you didn’t. Last night was certainly one of those games. That’s kind of how I view a season, I get less worked up about blowout losses and more upset about losses that could have gone our way. I’ve always wanted to do some sort of a tracker about that, how many games in a season come down to losses that could’ve gone our way had we not blown a lead, perhaps done something different with a bullpen/pinch hit move, someone made an error, etc. But I’m too lazy. -
I think Ceddy will break out today. Love the confidence from Hyde in him.
