I'm so glad we have Gunnar. Now everyone is energized and amped up.

Adley swings at the first pitch.   Again.

Right, that's why I said he only had his fastball.

Oops *slams hand to forehead*.

[Roy Firestone]

Adley on the ground today...he gets into those streaks when he puts it on the ground...

That kind of power part of the reason that Westburg is great but Gunnar is greater

Tough day for Means against a team that destroys LHP and he really only had his 90 MPH fastball.

Wasn't his fastball higher velocity last time out?

92ish, I think.

I hope we dont see that Martinez guy again today

[Moshagge3]

How many pitches has Adley seen today? Six?

I don't think anyone is arguing otherwise. It's clear that Gunnar is the best player on the team. But we have several other awesome players as well.

We shouldn't.   1.2 innings / 27 pitches last night.

This could be a triple for Mounty !

Overreacting a bit here.   He had a great start last week, today he had one poor start vs the best lineup vs LH in MLB.  

Meanwhile, Cole Irvin who started the season with 3 starts and a 6.75 ERA, is untouchable all of a sudden?

Seems like Irvin has figured things out.  He hasn't had a stretch like this with the O's that I can remember.
