Can’t believe they are favored -180 today. We will see about GRod….can see him getting lit up by the Phillies. And us scoring 3 or 4 runs like usual at home. 

I'm seeing 181 runs scored at home in 37 games.

181/37 = 4.89 runs a game.

And it was fun!   Great crowds, good games, we win 2 of 3 and outscore them by 7 in the series. We've caught the Phillies for overall #2 record in baseball, too, at 47-24.   If we finish wit

That was great baseball.

I don’t like losing and I certainly won’t like losing Bradish for any length of time (I refuse to say it’s for the whole season until they say so).  But that game was a ton of fun.  The performance by

5+ - 16 times

4 - 6

<4 - 15 times 

Pretty typical.  4 is the median point for most teams every year.

Great pitching matchups..sell out crowds.

Should be great viewing.

2 of the 3 best teams and arguably the leading contenders for CY in each league but is that the Sunday ESPn national game?  Nah..we got Boston vs NY!  

Yesterday turned out to be not fun at all. A loss, a lost player likely for the season.

I tuned in after the Bradish injury but I had a blast watching it. Great crowd, Santander blast, extras, two challenged plays at the plate, momentum going back and forth. Other than the outcome it was a fantastic game.

I don’t like losing and I certainly won’t like losing Bradish for any length of time (I refuse to say it’s for the whole season until they say so).  But that game was a ton of fun.  The performance by Akin, Santander’s game-tying homer, Santander’s throw to the plate, and Mullins’ slide — that was highly entertaining baseball.

It was only 1.5 seasons ago I had Taijuan Walker as one of the "better Jordan Lyleses" I thought might be an okay medium term rotation stabilizer.

Walker-Taillon-Bassitt were kind of a group of steadies if only Mike Elias would bid for a pitcher good enough to command more than a 1-year commitment.

I did scan the 7-game postseason formats this decade to see whether Kimbrel in the 2023 NLCS was far beyond other pitchers for torching championship hopes.

I get his -0.69 WPA 3rd worst.     Kimbrel yielded 1 run B9 to lose Game 3 2-1, and yielded 3 runs B8 to lose Game 4 6-5.     Those games occurred as PHI lost a 2-0 lead in Arizona against an opponent they had outplayed by about 162 pythagorean wins in season.

Kenley in the 2020 World Series was -0.78, in part thanks to Brett Phillips.    His team won though, so no great shakes.

Luke Jackson in the 2021 NLCS was -1.00, but his team also won.

Miguel Castro, Framber Valdez and Nick Anderson are the other 2020's outcomes in the -0.6 range on teams that lost.

I guess this might be a simple query if any of you have splurged for Stathead.

Series has been great so far. They had plenty of chances to win last night, and made it a little easier today. They get punched in the mouth and get right back up and punch back. I await the 14-10 final in tomorrows game.

Well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

I hear ya. But yesterday was a great game. Today was more fun though! We are going to be okay despite the Bradish injury. I am confident that Elias won't make the same mistake again and go with a marginal add at the deadline. This time I believe he will go for the difference maker.

How many Hall of Fame starting pitchers in the finale tomorrow?

I saw Rob Thomson gave a quote maybe Trea Turner is back for the decider.    6 week absence and spot back in against Corbin Burnes.    Mike Elias is maybe going please please please as he thinks about if Coby Mayo needs to play a few complex games to really get back to the groove.

      What you want is perfectly reasonable.  But you seem entirely to focused on money.  The team needs to work to improve.  I don't care what it costs, you shouldn't either.  They are going to spend money and payroll will be higher next year and the year after that.  We need them to make improvements and some of that is rightfully going to come from within and not cost much. The improvements that are needed are going to cost too, I'm not saying they wont.  But ownership and the GM should simply work in tandem to make sure the team has what it needs.  I am not really concerned about how much that costs because it should be able to be done without jumping this particular team into say top ten in payroll.

      This is the right approach. the orioles should be spending more money and I believe they will, but I expect it to be measured with less risk (ie we won’t be handing out a Hader type deal or a  long term contract to Santander IMO) improving on some of the obvious weaknesses certainly makes sense.    1x SP: Burnes, Fried, Buehler 1x RH OF/DH: Martinez, O’Neill, Profar 1x 1B: (wishlist) Alonso, Walker

      Hyde: No Idea if Suarez Will Be Back

      By Aristotelian · Posted

      Interesting. I had forgotten that they signed him and then got him in the pitching lab in the offseason. Since September is prior to the end of the season, I would take "two year contract" to mean September '23 is Year 1, and then '24 is Year 2.  That is a cool article. Very encouraging how closely they are following the KBO.

      2024 Week 5: Ravens @ Bengals

      By Aglets · Posted

      I think most teams would want to have an MVP candidate at quarterback.   Most of the time this will mean that he is better than the guy they currently have.  That's why. My quote was not taking salary into account.  If you take his current salary into account I think you are still talking about a majority of the NFL teams that would take him right now.  If the salary is an issue you find a way to make it work.  I'm starting to come around to the idea that the salary cap is kinda fake in a way after I keep seeing teams do stuff like adding void years other trickery to get the guys they want.

      2024 Ravens regular season discussion

      By Sports Guy · Posted

      Well I sort of disagree here. You said guys have been bad to questionable. I think that’s wrong. I just think a few guys have been awful and that has really hurt us. I would absolutely give Washington more time. Brade and Kane are well liked but doubtful they want to play them much right now. A trade should be considered if things don’t improve.

      Hyde: No Idea if Suarez Will Be Back

      By OriolesMagic83 · Posted

      Yeah, I'd rather keep him over Soto.  I mean Soto can't start.  Yes Soto was dominant at times out of the bullpen but he was also gasoline on a fire out of the bullpen.  I would rather pay Suarez $4 or 5 million, knowing he can start or pitch in the bullpen than Soto, knowing he can only start and is liable to melt down when needed most.

      It is funny how much Hays (the pre-2024 version anyway) matches the type of player they'll likely look for. I doubt that reunion happens though.
