The O's management. Good luck convincing them on the OH that it's a bad idea. You could however, send an angry letter to the warehouse.

I text them all the time about players to go for. They said repeatedly they are only interested in players who are free or minimum wage .

Awesomely. He was International League Pitcher of the Month.

Saw Wells tonight, he was unimpressive. A lot of the guys in Norfolk that have been up and down don't even look that great in AAA. Vespi was meh tonight. Brian Baker was downright awful, nearly blew a

Who says we keep bringing in Fuji to ruin games like today. Instead of trying Wells? 

Speak now or forever hold your peace.

We lost today because the offense didn't score more than 2 runs. I expect the offense to score more than 2 runs before I expect the pitching staff to give up less than 1 run against the Astros.

We lost today because we brought in a pitcher who had just pitched 1/3 of an inning and gave up 3 runs. 

So we tried him again in another very important game.  

Is anyone listening or is everyone blind?

I think you're the one ignoring the facts. You can't pitch your best arms every. single. day. They have to use what they are given to use and sometimes, the results are bad. You thought this was a must win game, I suspect?

So...I'm trying to follow your narrative.  Let me simplify what everyone else is saying:

Yes, Wells was fantastic the first half.  A true bulldog for us.  We all love him and surely he will be a huge contributer for us next year.  He hit a wall mid-season from fatigue.  Rest and a recuperation period didn't help.  He's struggled in AAA with very little workload, thus clearly not ready for the majors.

You have to realize that he had several years of injury in the minors and has never truly been able to build up to a starter's annual workload.  Next year we should be able to build on his innings even further...but he hit his max for this season.

If anyone does not know what one single win or loss can mean in the playoff scheme of things is not  important...They are not good at math.

If anyone doesn't know that if one single win or loss can mean the difference in the playoff scheme of things it means than they are all equally important...They are not good at English.

You are contradicting your own words... you said... "It also wasn't a "very important" game."

      Good stuff. The bullpen does do a good job of getting groundballs and Bradish, GRod and Burnes are not flyball heavy pitchers although obviously GROd and Bradish have only been out there so much since the start of 2023 and Burnes is just 2024.  Still, they have kept those numbers down.

      12 Questions for the Offseason

      By foxfield · Posted

      I twisted something and included Cohen.  That's my bad.  And I agree with almost all of this.  My post was more on tying the uber wealth of current ownership to simply having the ability to spend to any level.  The Orioles ownership group is one of the most powerful in all of sports.  I think they will make the Orioles more profitable and I think those profits will be reinvested in a way previous ownership did not. I do not anticipate, but would wildly applaud, ownership funding talent/salary increases out of pocket.  Thanks for the well articulated response.

      Or another drop-off. Which is more likely at 37?

      12 Questions for the Offseason

      By Sports Guy · Posted

      I don’t think we have heard that at all. I believe Elias said that Mateo should be a full go for ST. If what you are saying is accurate, I would agree it’s not worth keeping him around. I just don’t think it’s accurate.

      Mateo is going to llikely miss the first part of the year and then be limited for much of the year d/t his elbow injury.  I think he won't be able to do much more than DH the early part of the year.  Is he worth signing just for 2025.  Imo, if the O's bring him back, it should be for 2 years.  It could be that Mateo is the backup 1B to Mayo, don't laugh.

      His statcast page is really good though. He could be a candidate for a bounce back and will likely be a relatively cheap signing. I don’t love the fit but I can see the justification for doing it.

      Mathematically I'm sure they will get better just because they have been so bad against the pass so far this year I can't imagine it getting much worse. I'm not so sure they will take a step forward against the team that has scored the most points in the whole NFL next Sunday though.   😬 Our best defensive game so far was against Josh Allen and the Bills though so I guess anything is possible.  You would think we would be able to come up with some schemes to confuse a rookie QB.
