Please remember to not discuss the Orioles selections in this thread, but in their own threads. Each one will have one made as usual. If one was not made, feel free to make one like the previous.
I will try and keep up but may need some help as always.
Thanks for keeping things organized.
All true, but the bottom line is our offense is way too up-and-down and our bullpen is a shambles.
We are limping our way to hopefully a wildcard spot. And that is not a certainty!
Hard to complain about any moves Hyde made tonight when offense could only score 1 run and that was a HR by Gunnar. Failed multiple time w/ RISP. Big surprise. Cano choked in a big moment. I mean if Hyde can't trust Cano, who is he supposed to trust, and don't say Povich who was looking shaky and had never pitched in the 7th.
The O's/Elias needs to develop more pitching. The O's are a good team now and can't grab good pitchers off the waiver wire. The O's even with how they are playing are one of the last teams able to place claims on the waiver wire. The O's haven't even developed hardly any relievers. Most of the relievers the O's have had in their bullpen have been acquired in trades and off the waiver wire. Face it our pitching development (starters and relievers) sucks. That is a big part of the failure of the bullpen this year is that there are no pitchers in AAA ready to supplement the pen. The pitching in Norfolk has been some of the worst in AAA other than Povich and McDermott and a couple of others. Even with the great offense there most of the year, they have been mostly a .500 team.
