No, I was hoping at some point it would stop raining.  Is there going to be another worldwide flood?

Not a worldwide flood, but not a good day for baseball.   They'll be lucky to get one game in.   Scheduling two makes no sense when Toronto will be coming into town again in July.

I want the streak to end as much as anyone bc I am sick of hearing about it.

That said, I thought if we lose tomorrow then we have been swept bc the rescheduled game is now part of the July series?

The streak ending requires the Orioles to lose. Why would you want that?

How many teams in mlb can throw better arms out there over10 innings than Berrios, Garcia, and Romano?  Maybe there’s 5-10 matchups like that in mlb. 

It took all of that to beat us on a game where we had two baserunners other than Adley’s HRs. Hit, walk, ghost runner. 

Literally, everything had to go right for the Jays to beat us in a game on May 14th.

Weather app is showing 45% chance of rain at 11AM and nothing after that.  I imagine we get this in.  

Woo! I’m cutting out of work early to walk over, so I’m hoping that I can successfully play hooky on this one!

So if we get rained out again does it mean our sweepless streak is over?  What if we play and lose?  We only played 2 of the 3 scheduled games of the series.  Hmmmmmm

I think a loss today means the streak is over. 
 

A rainout shouldn’t mean that because 1 game is not a “series”, nor is it a “sweep”, by any definition of the words.

    • If a team that loses a qualifying free agent does not receive revenue sharing and did exceed the luxury-tax salary threshold the previous season, it is awarded a compensatory pick after the fourth round. San Diego Padres Compensation for Josh Hader. The Astros forfeited their second-round pick for signing Hader. San Diego Padres Compensation for Blake Snell. The Giants forfeited their third-round pick for signing Snell. Toronto Blue Jays Compensation for Matt Chapman. The Giants forfeited their second-round pick for signing Chapman.
    • If a team that loses a qualifying free agent does not receive revenue sharing and did not exceed the luxury-tax salary threshold the previous season, it is awarded a compensatory pick after Competitive Balance Round B.   Los Angeles Angels Compensation for Shohei Ohtani. The Dodgers forfeited their second- and fifth-round picks for signing Ohtani.
    • picks If a team that loses a qualifying free agent is a revenue-sharing recipient and the free agent signs for at least $50 million, the team will be awarded a pick between the first round and Competitive Balance Round A.   Minnesota Twins Compensation for Sonny Gray. The Cardinals forfeited their second-round pick for signing Gray.
    • The answer appears to be, yes, you can receive more than one compensation picks. Angels -- Shohei Ohtani: Pick after Competitive Balance Round B Blue Jays -- Matt Chapman: Pick after Round 4 Cubs -- Cody Bellinger: Pick after Competitive Balance Round B Padres -- Blake Snell: Pick after Round 4 Padres -- Josh Hader: Pick after Round 4
    • the question isn’t about being able to make the offers, it’s about being awarded compensatory picks for more than one.
    • I don’t consider a 4 o’clock game a night game. He also caught Wednesday night and Thursday day this week. Moral of the story is McCann will start 4 games in 7 days because he is Burnes preferred catcher.
    • It is absolutely possible. In 2022, the Mets gave a QO to Bassitt, Nikki, and DeGrom. The Red Sox gave a QO to Boegarts and Eovaldi. The Yankees gave a QO to Judge and Rizzo. The Dodgers gave a QO to Turner and Anderson. I know that it seems to be a foregone conclusion that Santander will not be on the team after this season, and while I generally agree that it is more probable than not that he will not be re-signed, I do think there is a non-zero chance that he will be retained. I think he is the most likely of Mullins, Hays, and himself to be retained, even if it is a small chance. The team has told us how they feel about his bat because he plays essentially everyday, and I have heard Kostka say that they value his clubhouse presence.
