Tuesday 6/18 @ NYY

Offense has done nothing, pitchers haven’t thrown strikes or challenged the Yankees at all, and that pick off was just icing on the cake. Still 2 games left but probably one of their flattest games of the year in what is the biggest series so far. Disappointing.

Elias stopped by a Lynyrd Skynyrd tribute concert and signed a reliever.

Who plays 3rd in the bottom of the 8th, O'Hearn?

If that's the crap Urias is going to play, then I don't care who they play there.   Need to send a message that that kind of not paying attention like that earns you a spot back on the bench.

At least we can save our real bullpen arms for the rest of the series.

If we are going to treat Adley like a C/DH type and give significant ABs to McCann, get a better backup C.

Like when Sam Basallo is MLB ready.

Pitchers?   Bullpen has 4 hitless shutout innings so far.   We had one bad pitcher tonight.

this may have been the most lethargic, uninspired effort Ive seen since the Caridnal series...

Maybe but I will bet if Westberg is out for a while Urias gets the majority of the starts in his absence.

Kevin Brown getting all excited that Aaron Boone showed up is insufferable. 

[Moose Milligan]

There’s that sardonic tone I can’t stand. Does Aaron Boone get credit for a managerial win cause he showed up? Shut up, pinecone. 

[Malike]

The Soto rules. That was strike 3 ffs.

Agreed. And I actually like the guy

Would be nice if Norby could play 3B. Would the Orioles trust Mayo there yet if he gets healthy soon enough?

I'm hoping it's just a day-to-day injury for Westburg.

Tate only threw 14 pitches and was yanked. Interesting move in a 4 run game with innings still to cover.

[Billy F-Face3]

I keep saying it. I think Vespi is under rated. He doesn't get enough respect. He deserves to stay on the Major League roster.
