It's almost game time and I'm kind of intrigued to see Mateo play. How many more times can I legit say that with a strait face this season?

Well, there are now 8 days left in April, so 8 days based on last year.  After that, if I recall correctly, he turns into a pumpkin until October.

Ah, another year of second guessing the lineup every single day!

I don’t know why people keep lumping O’Hearn in on posts like this. The guy had one of the few over .800 OPS on the team last year. He’s not remotely the problem.

I heard that he was initially scheduled to be DH, but told Hyde, “if Burnes doesn’t want me to catch him, then I don’t wanna play!”  Then he was seen softly sobbing in a corner of the locker room.

I’ll go with:

Adley C

O’Hearn 1B

Tony RF

Westburg 3B

Mullins CF

Cowser LF

Kjerstad DH

Holliday 2B

 

Actually move Westburg to 7th so there’s not so many lefties in a row.

Actually, if you think about it, as long as there is a right handed pitcher with this lineup, once Westburg bats, there will always be 8 lefties in a row after that. 🤔

But not if they bring in lefty and Rutchman and Santander switch sides. That being said, their only lefty relief options are Jose Suarez, who has thrown 53 pitches between yesterday and Saturday and also isn’t very good, and Matt Moore, who is a bona fide reverse splits guy.  

Still, I think Westburg bats 6th so he isn’t back-to-back with Tony. Cowser or Mullins would bat 5th, with the other batting 7th.

Based on production and results in a small sample size this year and ignoring veteran status I would change the standard lineup a good bit for today:

Adley - C

Gunnar - SS

Cowser - LF

Westburg - 3B

O'Hearn - 1B

Mullins - CF

Santander - DH

Kjerstad - RF

Holliday - 2B

I am also assuming Montcastle will sit again tonight.

Is Mountcastle most likely resting again?  If Tony is playing, I'd hope with this lineup Hyde starts moving him down.  O'Hearn, Westburg, and Cowser are better hitters for the 3/4/5 spots.

If Mountcastle is available - O'Hearn / Kjerstad should be RF/DH.  Sit Tony.

Nice HR McCann breaking the ice against Detmers.

From the elite draftee angle, tonight's presumed Adley, Kjerstad, Cowser and Holliday lineup is a bit of a milestone for the organization.    Griffin Canning gets to be the first RH SP to work through it...Yankees look like they will have Clarke Schmidt and Luis Gil next week.

yea McCann has been hot but eventually I would hope to see a better lineup vs lefties. I don't think they will DH Adley all year against them and have Cowser and Mullins play and use a different DH

Stupid. Lol. 

 

Flip Mullins and Cowser's spots in the order and then I think you've got it spot on.

      Yeah I'm all for sportsmanship but seeing 'Congratulations Yankees' at or near the top of the board is sickening, not gonna lie.  There is no high road when it comes to these clowns.  Boone's constant whining, the well-documented HP ump favoritism (I don't care if its framing or whatever, its happening, and its annoying AF), the whining about Judge getting hit on the hand while their guys constantly pitch inside including of course the Kjerstad play where they were literally cutting up on the bench as he lay prone on home plate, the ginormous payroll, the incredibly entitled fan base booing at pitches being called balls that are three inches off the plate, that stupid roll call, that stupid whistle after strikeouts, the stupid national media drooling over a Judge v Ohtani WS possibility, Nestor Cortes and his dumb mustache, the mediocre stadium that is revered simply because its called Yankee Stadium, the ridiculously short RF porch, the Soto Shuffle or whatever the hell it is. Congratulations my ass.  Screw those dudes.

      Here's the deal. I doubt anyone on the Yankee's board congradulated us last year. This year they won the East. Whippie for them. It's like saying the IRS won tax season. IF, we do anything in the playoffs, we may meet again. But there are some significant hurdles before that. And they could easily lose along the way. Cleveland, Houston, Detroit, and KC are no walk in the park. I'll root for the O's to go as far as they can and that the Yankees are one and done. We are in. I hope we win one more so we play the opening round in Oriole Park. If not, we are still in and have to do what we got to do to go anywhere. Two years in a row. While the Red Sox, Blue Jays, and Tampa sleep. Year two with a heck of a lot more obstacles. This may not be a WS year but we are competitive, young, and a hell of a lot classier than that bunch in the Bronx.

      The Achilles heel for this team is the bullpen

      By Fiver6565 · Posted

      The usage of Cano last night was poor, I don't even blame him really.  Yankees had 9-1-2 coming up, and Torres is well known (based on the telecast) to hit Cano well, and hit sinkers well.  He laced that hit to RF off him on Tuesday where the Yanks screwed up the baserunning.  And Soto got a hit off him that same inning.  So it was pretty predictable that these guys were going to tee off when he came in, and that's exactly what happened. Not to mention he's pitched a lot recently, and Burnes should have pitched another inning anyway.  Just baffling decisions by Hyde last night, and I'm not one to generally question those types of things.  Even if the Burnes thing was pre-ordained, the choice of Cano for that moment was terrible.

      Why is this thread on the Oriole Talk section.    It probably does not belong on the OriolesHangout  at all but if it stays it should be on the MLB section.

      If there's two outs and its not Judge in the hole, I'm probably going with Perez, crossing my fingers he gets the lefty, and then starting fresh the next inning with Coulombe or someone else.  If there's one out, I'm going w/ Coulombe.
