Wednesday, May 22, approximately 1:45: Regularly Scheduled Game vs Cardinals, sweepless streak on the line

Totally pressing. How much longer until something with this lineup is done?

[Mooreisbetter27]

Well it was a good run on the streak thing. It’s kinda wild that the entire team is slumping at the same time. Wild and frustrating as all hell. 

[allquixotic]

WOW. You have a guy on second, a pitcher who is throwing it all over the place, and Colton swings at a pitch that's basically in the dirt (pitch 3 and 5). This team really will haplessly hack at anything. The ump even gave him a gift ball. If he had taken all the low pitches he would have walked.

God. This team is just not good. Hitting coaches need to figure this crap out. 

[O's84]

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[gtman55]

This team looks comatose at the plate.

[allquixotic]

Send the team to the shrinks. They're completely tilted and in their own heads now.

Either that, or bring back Earl Weaver to give them an absolute hell of a yelling, spitting and thrashing in the locker room.

Are these O's the guys from the Major Leagues movie?

All you people crying about not pitching Irvin in game 1, show yourselves. Whatever, glad the swept streak it done. This team is too hot and cold. 

Lol glad the swept streak is done? Great fan.

When is it time to bring up multiple guys from AAA and play them regularly?

[LGOrioles]

That’s 3 XBH’s in the last 31 innings by my count. Last 3 batters in that inning had 2-0 counts. Santander popped up a pitch right down the middle. Westburg swung at a borderline strike and grounded out weakly. Cowser swung at clear ball and grounded out softly. 

Their offensive process is awful right now and the result are awful too. They’re not getting lucky they’re just not playing good. Couple that with subpar defense recently and a bullpen that can hardly hold a lead and this is what you get. 

[Billy F-Face3]

When you can't field and you can't hit, you lose. That's baseball. 

[Dunk35]

Bring up Kjerstad, Norby, not Jackson, and actually play them and Stowers. It cant be any worse. Hays sucks, Mullins sucks, Cowser sucks, Tony sucks. Our entire OF can be replaced by something else. 

[O's84]

The Orioles have some weapons on the bench, really KB?

Yep. If it doesn't swing the other way very soon, this might be a year to tune out and do something else with our summer, like follow horse racing, look forward to football, or play video games. Catch up on good movies and TV you might have missed. Etc.
