Saturday 6/1 vs the Devil Rays with Bradish on the mound.

Cano warming? Not gonna have any pitchers left for tomorrow's game except for the ones you don't want to use like Vieira.

I would think Akin would make an appearance tonight with a 4 run lead. Try to save Coulombe and Cano for tomorrow.

Cowser looks to me like he has lost a lot of weight since Spring training and early in the season. 

 

Not sure if he has been sick or this is being done on purpose.  But normally when an athlete loses weight it is not a good thing.

He hit BP in Toronto last night you said?

Yeah I probably wasn’t paying close enough attention to the highlights I was watching earlier today but I thought that’s what I saw.  Him being as old as he is now, HgH came to mind as a joke.  Which is how nasty rumors get started - my bad, as we used to say.

Cowser should sit for Stowers and let Hays play

The -1 WAR guy with 0 HR who hasn’t hit a ball hard for almost the entire season?  That Austin Hays?  Nah? I’ll take my chances with Cowser.

Yeah, as long as there are no good options on the bench, leave him out there. Let's see if he can break out of the slump

He’s been hammering balls directly to fielders.  It’s baseball, it happens.

    • Me too. Driving 4 hours to have a father daughter date. Can't wait!
    • The discussion about Cle vs NYY is interesting. The Os always struggle at Cle and their BP is awesome but the starters are meh and so is the offense.  
    • Bautista, if he is back to his old self, would be a big addition. Dominguez and Soto have to improve the walk rate. They certainly have swing and miss, but at a significant cost. Cano can throw up in the zone and get misses, but he is used so often he is rarely sharp. He is used to induce ground balls, and the sinker is fairly effective when he is tired.  Akin, Webb and Coulombe are getting some swing and miss. They are all above average in swinging strike percentage, according to FanGraphs. MLB average is generally around 11.2% from year to year, and Akin (second on the Orioles behind Grayson 13.6) is at 13.2, Dominguez 12.4, Cano 12.2, Soto 12.9, Webb 11.8, Coulombe is 9.9 and Cionel 9.5. In fairness to Coulombe (11.8) and Webb (13.7), they are higher over the last three years. They have not been healthy for a fair amount of this season and pitched through some things that made those numbers dip, perhaps.  Bautista was 18% in the same period of 2022-2024. He would be 11th in MLB in 2024. No other Oriole is in the top 100 in MLB. Grayson Rodriguez is at #120. It should be noted that Andrew Walters is at 18.8, ranking 7th. He was our unsigned 18th round pick in 2022. All of that aside, I am not sure the pen is structured the same as in recent years. There may be some moves there. Or, perhaps it is like you wrote, and they focus on Soto and Dominguez making adjustments to having more command, decreasing the walks. Those two are getting a little expensive as well. I guess we’ll see.   
    • How much different? They sat Judge yesterday, they threw their playoff starters for 5+ innings yesterday and today. They are also playing for the best record in the AL. They aren't mailing it in.
    • It’s not just the O’s. I’ve checked the Dodgers who have similar prices and they have a lot of upper deck NLDS games 2 & 3 available. Same for the NLCS. yanks still have seats available also. — In general, I’m sure alot of fans are just gonna wait till the day of to grab tickets.
    • That makes no sense. If they had to win their current series would have looked much different. 
    • I agree. You have to wonder if the Yankees are behind him getting hit. Perhaps the ghost of George has struck
