Hays hammers high velocity….better sit Cowser.

Hays ain't hammering anything right now....

He's currently striking out 30% of his AB's and he's currently 0-14 over the past 3 games with 4 K's.  Yes, I know. It's a SSS but even in ST he was struggling.

It was sarcasm…..anyway the only reason Hays isn’t in the lineup is due to an illness.

Gotcha!  Figured that.

Maybe they should be really cautious with Hays... that illness may be serious  Maybe a trip to the 60 day IL just to be sure he'll be ok.

Was there ever a resolution for Trade Angelos?

Yes … a statement that said handle changes are a benefit of the plus membership.

I strongly advocate for people to $2 or $3 bucks a months. The exception to that belief would be a little kid

I think the O's should try Adley at leadoff and Gunnar batting behind him or in the 3 spot.  Don't know if anyone else has brought this up yet.

I know Gunnar has more speed, but since last season Adley has been the top OBP guy on the team, of the starters anyway.  He just gets on base, while Gunnar appears to have the bigger bat.

Hyde doesn't like Adley rushing to get catcher gear off when batting leadoff at least at home.

Hmm, makes sense.  Well then maybe they can try it on the road or when he's DHing.

After Holliday is promoted and adjusted to mlb pitching, I would prefer he bat leadoff.  Not really interested in seeing Adley in hit and runs, much less stolen bases.

Lefties kill this guy we are facing today. I assume we will not take that into account and start some whacky lineup, forcing in ice cold right handed bats.

Almost guaranteed Hays and his .100 BA start over Cowser.

I was in a 7.3 in Alaska in 2002 I think? I was working at a resort in Denali and they had a bunch of cabins that all almost fell off the mountain they were on. Pretty freaky.

Apparently, it was a 7.9, my memory is shot.

Maybe you need to start adhering to a pretty strict, uh, drug regimen to, uh, you know, like, keep your mind limber.

    • I disagree Mayo is one of the reasons the Orioles have not hit well.  Emmanuel Rivera, who has hit well with an .879 OPS since he joined the O's, has gotten the playing time over Mayo.  
    • I was sort taking that as a fait accompli. Signing expensive long-term free agent deals for one dimensional sluggers heading into their 30s definitely does not seem like Elias's style, especially when an extra high draft pick (and accompanying extra bonus pool money) is the reward for not doing so.
    • Game 153, Sept. 19 Lots of notable defensive plays today.   Kjerstad made two excellent catches, one going back and towards the RCF alley that (per Kevin Brown) was a 50% probability catch, and another going back to the wall near the corner and making the catch at close to full speed.   Holliday snared a line drive at the top of his leap, and also made a nice backhand running catch of a soft fly into medium RF. Mullins made a diving catch in the 7th on a sinking liner that he got a great jump on.   In the 9th, with runners on 1st and 2nd, Heliot hit a liner in the RCF gap that carried much further than it first appeared it would.   Mullins and Slater dove for it simultaneously and Slater actually gloved it for a second before it popped out while Slater landed on Mullins.  Luckily, the two base runners totally misread the play, and after Slater quickly scrambled to his feet and threw the ball in, the runner originally on 2B scored but the runner on 1st only advanced to 2B, and the batter had to stop at first.  The O’s were able to keep any further runs from scoring. One thing I’ve noticed about Manny Rivera is that he’s very slow charging bunts and slow rollers/choppers. He handled one bunt and one chopper in front of him today and both times the runner beat his throw rather easily, something that has happened a lot when Rivera has manned 3B.   I’m more than ready to have Urias -and/or Westburg back at the hot corner.    
    • Don’t know what happened to him on here but I did meet him and some others from The Sun forums at the park on Matt Wieters first game as an Oriole. If I recall correctly his name was Patrick.  He seemed like a good dude but he did have his face painted and was wearing those big hulk hands…which did strike me as a little odd for a grown man but to each his own. 
    • ….as long as it’s not us 
    • Is it just me or did they sound the HR / walk-off siren before the ball actually went out?
