4/2 Vs. Royals

[OriolesMagic83]

That's what happens when you have a 1B/DH playing in the OF.

Baseball, gotta love it. Everybody hitting Irvin but Witt! lol

And that is why Ryan O'Hearn should not be in the outfield unless all the other OFers have their arms fall off. 

I said it earlier.

Obviously defense doesn't always matter.

Was thinking the same thing.

Geez.  O'Hearn shouldn't ever see the outfield again.   That looked as awkward as could be. 

O’Hearn in the outfield is a Buck Showalter like lineup move.

Shades of Trumbo defense.

[O's84]

Grant Hill in the booth.

Wow this is quite the Twilight Zone experience seeing Grant Hill in an Orioles broadcast.

Duck Fuke!

Holliday and Norby went back to back to start Norfolks game.

I am not at all an advocate for sticking O'hearn in the outfield.

Nobody should. He is slow, has a noodle for an arm, and struggles on anything that isn't hit right at him. Not sure why the a contending team like the Orioles should be playing him the outfield. 1B or DH. That's it. You wanna give Santander a break, keep Hays in the lineup and put Cowser at there. 

It's just dumb, but apparently the SIGBOT computer doesn't take outfield defense into consideration.

That's what carrying a guy like Kemp does, you have to give someone like O'Hearn an occasional day in the outfield.

From my untrained eye what I see from Irvin tonight is 91 (bp) fastball, 84 change, good curveball, and not very good command.

Recipe for getting the results that we’ve seen tonight.

Grant is the man.

He might play better defense than O'Hearn.
