We played poorly?  Nah, we won. The previous 5 games were just a rough turn through considering the Yankees, Astros, and Clev, are the other three best teams in the MLB. 

Notice how during our 5 game losing streak that nobody mentioned closer or Mason Miller?  That goes to show you that a closer doesn’t matter if there is no lead to protect.  

Astros are washed up. We had no business getting dominated by them. Basically a trap series.

On a 11 day vacation to California. Hitting up the Cubs - Giants game tomorrow in San Fran before heading down the coast to LA. Will feel better about wearing my O’s stuff now without a losing streak. Anyone ever been to the stadium here?

I've been to Dodger Stadium many times if you have questions.  I've never been to a game in San Fran.

Houston is 33-21 since resetting its season in Mexico on April 27. Only two American League teams have better records across that span: the Cleveland Guardians and New York Yankees. The Astros have trimmed their AL West deficit to 4 1/2 games and were three back of the final AL wild-card spot heading into Wednesday night’s games.

Pathetic indeed..From 10 back to 4.5

I'm so jealous. My brother lives in SF two blocks away from Golden Gate Park, and one block away from the N Judah line that pretty much takes him all the way to the ballpark. I visit him once a year and somehow have never been to a game.

They've won 7 in a row easily have the best run differential in the scrubby AL West.  Plus our pitching staff isn't the same without Bradish and Coulombe.  Even if they're just on a hot streak the Astros exposed our lack of depth.  In that lackluster division they could easily make the playoffs and make things tough for any team.

Toronto up 8-1, hate rooting for the Jays. They blew a 5 run lead last night and got destroyed. No matter the results, the Yankees pitching has regressed badly.

I think, in the AL, I root against the Jays second most of any team but I’m a big fan when they play the Yankees.

The last three runs scored on a double by Guerrero, who smacked a pitch down the LF line that couln't have been more than a foot off the ground. 

Alejandro Kirk drove in a run earlier. I was disappointed to see that Kirk's image on Gameday is the same as every other RHed hitter's -- thought they might have a special one for him. 😉

I'll check the 3D view if he bats again lol.

There wasn't a 5 run lead. They were up 3-1 before giving up a 6 spot in the 6th.

    • Holliday, Mayo, Basallo.    Would have to be blown away for Kjerstad and Cowser.    Shopping Stowers and Norby.    Driving Hays to the airport. Urias, too.    Anyone that’s not Gunnar and Adley can be had. 
    • I watched end of Astros and Blue Jays game.  Trevor Richard’s could be a nice second piece as a trade option for the bullpen.  He is having solid year .139/.222/.264/.486 line is very nice.  He is signed just for the year at 2.5 million so guy you could get for late teen type prospect.  Judd Fabian for Richard’s would seem like decent trade.  
    • Among the prospects who aren't already [semi] regulars, anyone not named Mayo, Basallo, Kjerstad or Holliday.  Even Kjerstad could go in the right deal for a starter but I probably wouldn't like it.  Among the position players 27 and over, any of them in the right deal but not more than two.
    • He asked for Holliday last deadline for Cease. Who knows what he asked for this past winter for Cease? I’d rather we just go the rental route with Kikuchi, Scherzer, or Severino. We can figure out next year’s rotation this winter. 
    • It’s easier to say who I wouldn’t trade.
    • This seems like a good day for a general DSL check-in. The DSL Orioles Orange team lost today but is 14-7 overall.   Going into today's play, they were in first place in the DSL Northwest Division and had the 5th best record of any DSL team.  They were 15th of 51 DSL team at 6.20 runs per game, and 14th in fewest runs allowed per game at 4.80.   So, nicely above average in both respects.    DSL Orioles Black won today to raise their record to 8-12.   They are a micron ahead of Orange at 6.21 runs per game (14th in the DSL), but they have allowed the second most runs per game of any DSL team, at 7.79. The top hitters for Orange through today's play are: RF/CF/LFJordan Sanchez (18), .386/.470/.757, 5 HR, 21 RBI ($400-450 k signing in late 2023) SS/2B/3B Luis Guevara (18), .340/.500/.434, 0 HR, 9 RBI ($200 k  bonus in 2023; repeating the DSL after an .824 P OPS season last year) C/1B Ariander Mejia (17), .316/.409/.456, 1 HR, 13 RBI (repeating the DSL after posting a .716 OPS at age 16) CF Stiven Martinez (16), .298/.411/.426, 0 HR, 8 RBI ($950 k bonus 2024). LF/RF Angel Garcia (17), .226/.373/.434, 2 HR, 17 RBI (240 k bonus 2024). Emilio Sanchez (17), .263/.440/.281, 0 HR, 2 RBI ($1.3 mm bonus 2024) The top Orange pitchers for now are: Keefer Morfe (18), 4 GS, 12.0 IP, 0.75 ERA, 1.000 WHIP, 15.0 K/9, 5.0 K/BB ($210 k bonus in 2023; repeating after posting a 7.01 ERA last year) Juan Rasquin (18), 4 G, 3 GS, 11.2 IP, 0.77 ERA, 1.200 WHIP, 12.3 K/9, 1.6 K/BB (repeating after throwing to a 5.14 ERA last year) Henry Tejada (19), 6 G, 13.0 IP, 0.69 ERA, 1.000 WHIP, 8.3 K/9, 2.0 K/BB (missed last season but threw to a 2.10 ERA in his age 17 season). Jeyderson Mora (19), 4 GS, 14.1 IP, 2.51 ERA, 1.256 WHIP, 8.2 K/9, 1.4 K/BB (repeating after throwing 5 IP to a 1.80 ERA last year). Luis Espinoza (17), 4 GS, 15.1 IP, 4.11 ERA, 1.435 WHIP, 7.6 K/9, 2.2 K/BB  For Black, the top hitters are: SS/3B Elvin Garcia (17), .370/.507/.611, 0 HR, 16 RBI ($500 k bonus 2024) 2B/1B Jose Mejia (18), .286/.430/.460, 2 HR, 12 RBI ($410 k bonus in 2023; repeating the DSL after an .885 season in limited action) 1B/3B/2B Felix Amparo (18), .320/.443/.440, 1 HR, 15 RBI ($350 k bonus in 2023; repeating the DSL after a .628 OPS season last year) C Juan Ortega (18), .256/.473/.359, 1 HR, 5 RBI (repeating the DSL after a .790 OPS season in limited action) It's slim pickings among the Black pitchers for now, but they do have: Esteban Luna (17), 4 GS, 14.0 IP, 0.64 ERA, 1.143 WHIP, 10.9 K/9, 2.4 K/BB Andy Fabian (21), 4 GS, 14.2 IP, 2.45 ERA, 1.295 WHIP, 13.5 K/9, 3.7 K/BB Esteban Mejia (17), 4 GS, 10.2 IP, 3.38 ERA, 1.219 WHIP, 12.7 K/9, 3.0 K/BB ($140 k bonus 2024) I put in signing bonus info that I could find easily.   There may be more info available.  
    • Well the first step is to trade Mayo for whatever we can get.
