Kinda blame Hyde for that.  Baumann should not be pitching in the bottom of the 10th in a tie game.  Not his role.

Lol Why didn’t we walk Cruz?

Terrible decision by Hyde. You have to know your players better than this. Why not Coulombe to start the inning? Even if you can't go to Cano again, Baumann is not high on my list of relievers I

Oh, great!  A soft- throwing lefty on the mound for the Pirates.  I'm predicting a 4-hit shutout for the Pirates.  The O's can't hit guys like this. 

We'll see how they adjust, but yeah, we've seen this movie before.

Kevin and Ben working themselves into knots trying to explain why Westburg can't hit 91 right down the middle. Was anybody saying Falter "hides it well" when he gave up 5 runs in 4 innings to the godawful Marlins in his first start?

      Yennier Cano 2024

      By Just Regular · Posted

      Its one of the byproducts of playing .600+ ball for a month. Here are AL relievers by games pitched so far (holy cow what is Oakland doing with TJ McFarland!) https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders/major-league?pos=all&lg=al&qual=y&type=8&season=2024&month=0&season1=2024&ind=0&stats=rel&sortcol=5&sortdir=default&pagenum=1 CLE - Barlow, Sandlin, Gaddis, Clase BAL - Cano, Coulombe, Webb, Kimbrel NYY is leaning on Holmes. Certainly the next 3 games could shift heavily if Yennier or Holmes gets attrited more quickly. If SP returns are friendly to the Orioles in the coming months, Elias can really focus on the RP market.    Is it too early Eduardo style to start thinking about what RP rentals he would give up Cade Povich for?     Cade Povich for Ryan Pressly, Cade Povich for Ryan Helsley.    David Bednar with a bunch of years is more. The reward if you can lock up your division is everyone can go to the spa for September.

      Austin Hays 2024

      I agree with what you said about Hays. It minimizes Cowser’s exposure/limitations.  However, I cannot agree with your Cedric Mullins’ take. We don’t have another OF we can cover CF anywhere as well. For whatever we would be loosing in defensive value, the offensive uptick would have to be considerable in order to do that. Mullins is that good in CF IMO.

      Corbin Burnes 2024

      I don’t think a solid plan exists with seeing Gunnar and Adley as short term assets. They are your franchise/cornerstone players. Irreplaceable/superstar talents that every franchise would love to have. I don’t care how good the development system is and how much you believe in it, the chances of finding/developing equivalent talent is very low. But I get what you are saying in regards to the acquisition and retention of upper end pitching talent. With the injury probabilities being so high, it makes sense to view them through a shorter term lens.

      He's had his good stuff the last few appearances. Also had a terrific play on a swinging bunt by Stanton (helped out by Stanton's ridiculous speed--Yanks announcers went on about how he was hustling, this is just what he is capable of, etc).

      I take it to mean that Girardi doesn’t know how to read Baseball Savant.

      Sounds like you are in the camp for letting Burnes walk at season’s end? Any thoughts on a plan to replace him next year? Another trade? Different FA signing? Something else?

      Austin Hays 2024

      By interloper · Posted

      Maybe it's just me, but I'm kind of looking forward to Hays being back, whether it's a straight swap of McKenna or at the expense of Kjerstad. I want a steady defense-oriented RH outfielder on this team, and McKenna just isn't good enough. Yeah Hays lacks speed, but he's steady and gets good jumps. He will hit better than he has so far.  I've been as critical of Hays as the next guy but I think objectively the roster feels a bit wonky without him. Cowser gets pretty exposed facing lefties, Kjerstad is useless on this team right now, and McKenna isn't much more useful either. Hays helps smooth out the rough edges of this 26-man, IMO, even if his playing time is significantly cut.  I also think a straight CF platoon with Mullins is absolutely in the cards with how terrible Ced has been against LHP this year.
