Goes without saying a split rest of way keeps Orioles up one game at break and also means they would be up 6-4 in season standings. Win both you clinch season series. Play at NYY 3 games with 6 games to go. Just avoid a damn sweep. I think the series is more important from a tiebreaker standpoint than necessarily being up or down a game. Hopefully some frustration was released in the 9th inning. One big hit and maybe this team relaxes some. -
Brought this up in game thread. Send Povich down for an arm. Technically don’t need a 5th SP until SD series but based off how the Orioles like give guys an extra day they can start Irvin vs MIA. Play a DH at home Mon July 30. Can call him back up then. Play 11 games before that DH. One start by Irvin vs MIA is worth an extra arm. I know he needs to be added to the 40 but Mayo could come up for Kjerstad. Concussion IL is 7 days. You have 4 days off at the break. If not Mayo then obviously Stowers, it makes no sense to take any chances for losing Heston 3 games at most.

In fairness the pitching staff has given up 25 runs in the past four games, and that's obviously not including the 19 run hammering the A's delivered last weekend. The rotation needs maybe just one good starter (though preferably two), but the bullpen is where this team has been quite vulnerable for some time and in danger of falling further. -

Cowser is hitting .183 the last 3 months. It kinda hard to justify him getting all the time but Mullins hasn’t been much better though he is hitting just under .300 the last 30 days so he been better more recently. -

Right now, the regular OF should be Cowser, Kjerstad and Santander with Hays getting at bats vs lefties and Mullins playing a few games a week. Cowser and Kjerstad should play most of the week but don’t need to play everyday. (4-5 games a week basically) The best OF for October isn’t going to be Hays and Mullins playing much at all. -
While I don't agree with a 'quick sell off', and the recent slump is not nearly drastic enough to support that sort of a move, I DO think we should sell off some of our MLB assets to 1) shore up our pitching and 2) open up opportunities for talented players that are currently blocked. I certainly wouldn't trade ALL of those that were listed in the OP, but I'd be ok with trading a couple of them out of Mountcastle/Urias/Mateo/Mullins/Hays/Santander. If I had my way, I'd trade a couple of them for the best minor league pitching I could get to help us in the future AND trade some of the position players that won't be moving up even after trading the MLB players for some MLB pitching right now. Shore up the team today by adding to the current MLB pitching staff AND add some arms to the minors to help in the future as well. It's not going to happen, I don't think, but that's what I'd like to see personally. -

Fair enough. Thanks for the education.
