I heard Burnes made him cry.

7 innings, 2 runs. 9 straight quality starts. All time Oriole record is 12 in a row, by Jim Palmer. Starting to look forward to every one of his starts.  Burnes days are special. W

Is it me, or does Burnes have a long-ball issue, especially in early innings?

He has been great all season long. He has some traffic on the bases occasionally, but he is cool under pressure. I couldn’t be happier with his performance.

McKenna’s drop didn’t cost us the game. The homer Bautista then allowed cost us the game. Just like Westy’s drop didn’t have to cost us runs tonight, until Burnes allowed it to. 

I'm sorry Frobby, I respect you immensely, and you are, and always have been frequently a source of knowledge and tempered wisdom on this board.  But, honestly, this is the weirdest take I've ever seen you post.

McKenna LITERALLY dropped a win.  There's no debate, no question, it's objective fact that if McKenna catches that baseball, the game is over and the guys are heading down the tunnel celebrating. 

I have never assigned a single sliver of blame on that loss on Bautista, because frankly, he shouldn't have even been pitching, he should have been showering and changing.

They traded Glasnow to get this guy, so he was supposed to be good.  

But just think of all of the pitching they have dropped into the rotation over the years. They consistently produce and acquire quality pitching

      O's back to a 5 man rotation

      I hope we stick with five SP and deeper bullpen. The pen could use Suarez or Irvin.

      Interesting Article About Scott Boras and Orioles

      By Tony-OH · Posted

      At the end of the day, it's Boras' job to get his players as much money as possible. That has worked out in some cases, and not with others.  Hopefully the "winning" environment here will encourage players like Gunnar and Adley to sign extensions. I'd love to hear that the Orioles signed Henderson to a 10-year contract because he is a franchise guy. Adley is a catcher so that scares me more, but I'd be willing to extend him until he's 31 or 32. Gunnar though is the key and I think the Orioles know this. He's one of the best players in the league, he's fast, athletic, and barring a serious injury, there is no doubt he's going to be one of the best players in the league for a long, long time.

      O's @ Yankees Series, June 18-20 (Tues-Thurs)

      By Tony-OH · Posted

      Baseball is a funny game sometimes, but you're right, we are going to battle with starters that were not even projected for the opening day rotation. Yet, here we are. Obviously anytime we have a series against the Yankees it's big, but even if we lose 2 of 3, we'd only be 2.5 games back.  The loss of Coulombe is huge and that bothers me more than the starters honestly. Perez, Akin, Baker and Tate filling key roles if Cano or Kimbrel is not available does not make me feel great. Baker threw the ball in his debut back and has been throwing well in AAA for a bit, so maybe he's a little bit of lightning in a bottle that this team needs in the pen.

      Count me in, but the Orioles have never really subscribed to that theory of splitting time like that. They really put an emphasis on everyday players and bench players with everyday players rarely getting days off.

      I agree with this. I just feel like he hasn't been given a fair shot in two seasons up here. I can't see any reason that he can't start 4 games out of 7. Give Hays, Mullins, Santander and Cowser each one day off a week and let him start.

      O's back to a 5 man rotation

      By wildcard · Posted

      This is probably obvious to many but I have not seen it talked about. With Bradish going on the IL and the recall of reliever Vespi they are now in a 5 man rotation.    Burnes, GRod, Irvin, Suarez and Povich.    And an 8 man pen. It was hoped that Kremer would join the rotation but his short 3 2/3 innings in Sunday's start at Norfolk probably means he gets another start in Norfolk on Friday.    If he does well at that point he could join the O's on June 26th.    Until then the O's are likely to continue with a 5 man rotation IMO.   Even if Kremer joins the rotation in June the O's probably go back to a 5 man rotation in July because of the number of off days in July.
