Just Regular Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 (edited) 8 minutes ago, ScGO's said: I think his stuff plays up as a reliever. I think he'd be a good option out of the pen Yeah, I don't think Elias is done 48 hours out, but if he is I think from today's roster add Coulombe, McDermott and maybe Povich, and subtract Irvin, Smith and maybe Akin. As much as I'm a fan of K-bb, Akin is one of those pitchers who puts up numbers there but it exaggerates his ability to prevent runs. I'd hope in shorter bursts Albert gets more juice like early in the spring. Edited July 29 by Just Regular Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been up to 98 this season If he comes out the pen in short bursts at 97-98 with the CH and Cutter he could be solid against both RH and LH. His Cutter gets knocked around as a starter, but if he's throwing it harder, for just an inning, it could be more effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowAboutThat Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 4 minutes ago, Greg Pappas said: It’s not a major issue, but I would really like to get Jonah Heim back. He’s having a very down year this year, but he’s a great framer, good thrower and has power. He’d be a huge upgrade over McCann and would allow for a genuine catching platoon.

ChicagoTerp Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 O's have been dreadful lately, but with a couple days remaining before the deadline, lets enjoy the fact that, for the second straight year, we are buyers, and we have good reason to hope for a playoff appearance and maybe even a deep run if the stars align. Hopefully the moves this year prove better than Flaherty/Fuji last year, but we won't know that for a while. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OriolesMagic83 Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 Just saw Devers hit a ball off the Green Monster and then bounce back over Jazz Chisholm's head for a triple. Glad to see him making a difference already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No division winner has won less then 87 games in last 15 years maybe longer. They are currently 51-55 so they would have to go 36-20 the remaining 56 games which is .643 baseball. Maybe this year number is lower but at some point you have to ask yourself how many games can we actually win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to see him making a difference already. The broadcasts really are leaning into Chisholm's flight landing about 300 and him not getting to the ballpark until about 540. Even Kevin Brown just went to the wall being tricky to play. As @emmett16said, chasing those dopamine clicks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the next 72 hours, the Orioles and Yankees combine for 7 team games against what is left of the Blue Jays on one hand, and Austin Hays' Philadelphia Phillies throwing Wheeler, Nola and Sanchez on the other.

You rarely see a WS champion punt the following year when they have key players coming back for a stretch run. It also helps them that the teams in front of them aren't playing well.

They could make a run just time running out and you just got swept by last place team. Either way they will have to play .600 baseball rest of way for a team that is playing .480 ball. They have 3 games left before deadline actually because they play day game Wednesday. 2 or 3 more losses could kill them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
