We went 4-2 against Seattle this year

As long as Kyle Gibson is nowhere near the roster if we play them.

If we can clinch the division sooner, we can rest our guys in the Boston series!

Flaherty & Irvin start the last two games

Okay, this is going to sound weird, but I'd rather they clinch later. It forces Tampa to still play games like they have to win and they don't get the days off.

That might be best overall, but it won't be best for our blood pressures!

I was off his bandwagon way before many on this board.

Is Mountcastle coming back at any point?

From yesterday's MLB Trade Rumors:

Orioles manager Brandon Hyde indicated to reporters (including MASN’s Roch Kubatko) yesterday that first baseman Ryan Mountcastle is progressing well in his rehab from a shoulder injury that sidelined him just over a week ago. Mountcastle hasn’t returned to hitting yet but stood in the batter’s box to track pitches during injured closer Felix Bautista’s most recent bullpen session. Though Bautista’s timetable for return still appears to be up in the air, Mountcastle is expected to be ready to come off the injured list in time for Wednesday’s game against the Nationals.

Chin up Ceddy, you’ll break out of this 2 month long slump. I know it

That's a fair point.

I will take a deep breath once the Orioles clinch this Division because I think it's a huge difference because of the time off for the pen.

Clinching gives the whole team a chance to take deep breath and to reflect on their accomplishment.

Good Lord, that still may be one of the worse base running gaffs in Orioles history. Pretty sure that's when the Orioles were like, "Yeah, that's not a major league player!"

Switching from the Ravens game.

O'Hearn has been very good, but in this series he's struggling mightily at the plate.

Gibson doing a good job so far.

Toronto is going to blow their lead, 100%. Orioles need to win this.

It's remarkable how consistent the Guardians are at being pesky sonofabitches every year, even when they aren't good.

There was a huge fight on the board as to whether he was out of shape.  A ton of people claimed he was actually ripped.  It was quite entertaining.

Kwan is basically the AL's new Brett Gardner.

You'd think with Adley being his teammate in college, Adley would know his weakness!
