Slave to the save rule. I hate to say I hope the O's lose but at some point they have to realize this isn't a good thing. Ever.

I’m so tired of the save mindset.

First, let me apologize. The entire network that is our provider went down. Just so happens it goes down during one of the craziest games ever. And yes, I was losing my Sh!t while it was down.  A

Yeah too bad he can’t just jump from the 6th to the 9th without anybody pitching. That Hyde guy is a real dummy.

Hope they tee off on Hunter Harvey’s civil war general lookin ass and put this out of reach for the Nats half

Is anyone ready to accept the notion that it’s not the back to back outings that are the problem for Kimbrel and accept that maybe he’s just not that good any more?

Yeah I think he is at the end.  Very little in the tank as far as his career.

Time to end this Kimbrel as closer situation. Just like last year, he got taken out of the role. Maybe he'll put it together later in the year, but he just can't command anything right now.

      How does Povich fit into your 2025 plans?

      Povich has better stuff than Matusz.

      Elias: It's on me

      By Orioles West · Posted

      I don’t feel picked on — I didn’t offer much detail regarding the changes I am hoping for. If my initial post didn’t sound like it, I do have more patience (at least a little more) than most. It may take more than a minute to get depth in the bullpen or an offense that can adjust in crunch time. I get that. I’m not in the torches and pitchforks crowd, but the O’s can’t sit on their hands either. That’s closer to where I’m at.

      I kept hoping, for the sake of my own enjoyment, that I'd eventually come around after having to look at it often enough, but, no, I still think it's ugly as sin. And I hate how it plays.

      Yeah, but after he was called back up and changed his pitch mix, in his last 8 starts he had a 9.4 SO/9.

      I certainly wouldn’t be surprised if he changed nothing in terms of strategy.  Look at what he traded recently right handed batters. I feel like it is more important to him to be innovative, and develop players that have been forgotten or have failed in the major leagues than it is to actually win a World Series. Obviously, that’s the end goal of all the things he’s doing, but he wants to do it in a way that looks innovative, and it looks like he knows more about the players that failed and how to fix them than any other person. I honestly believe that is why Hyde has been here so long. He does everything that he’s told and they don’t want to bring in a manager that won’t do that. I wouldn’t be surprised if he has a lineup made up for him every day and I also wouldn’t be surprised if the whole game plan was planned out for him. What do you do when and where.. Obviously the numbers mean a lot in baseball and are extremely  helpful but they’re not everything.

      Who will pay Burnes $400M this offseason?

      By Just Regular · Posted

      I'll celebrate whoever we get in a high echelon of MLB talent, but unfortunately unpacking this season too soon I think I don't even really want to win the Burnes bidding. Elias will value the next half season of information on Felix, Grayson and Bradish to figure out who goes with Eflin.     The growth he showed this year winning the Burnes and Eflin trade markets adds confidence he'll staff the top of the pitching roster appropriately in July 2025. If he is very risk averse with Kremer, Povich and Suarez, people would flip out but people like Kyle Gibson, Patrick Corbin and Jose Quintana hit me as safe innings he might actually pursue.

      The team's valuation only matters at time of sale. The owner's wealth in an uncapped sport like MLB determines how much the team can spend. Steve Cohen by any metric available has tons more millions to SPEND than Hal Steinbrenner. Steve Cohen has even operated at a deficit over 100 million before which I believe was in 2023. And most importantly he has the WILL to get into the deepest of pools when it comes to FA as he has already shown in his short time owning the Mets.
