7/6 Game two versus Oakland

[SteveA]

Why not Irvin?   You need someone to eat about 4 innings.

I get that Tate hasn't pitched in a while and was inevitably going to pitch today anyway.

But seems like the ideal spot for Irvin.

[Yossarian]

Rooker kills us.

[Uli2001]

Run differential is going to take a hit today.

[O's84]

LOL.

I think you  will see Irvin pitch plenty today.

They hit it hard for hits, they hit it soft for hits

Death by a thousand bloops now.

Catch ya back in here when the Orioles come storming back with a too little, too late 4 run 7th.

Oh I guarantee they'll be plenty of garbage time too late runs today. As is typical with this offense. 

This is reminding me of the Houston series

Skubal for Povich, Mountcastle, Hays, and Urias. That should get it done.

Skubal is one of the best pitchers in baseball. The guys you mentioned aren’t even the best players on our roster.

unless you really like the sound of cacophonous laughter, you should never mention that to anybody in Detroit

 

Edit: oh wait, you were being sarcastic.

my bad.

Yeah they want him in a clean inning.

[Safelykept]

Reminds me of 2021, It happens.

[Aristotelian]

This is gonna really mess up our run differential

I’m assuming he wants Irvin to have a clean inning and Tate is accustomed to coming in with runners on. 

[Yossarian]

Who is our position player pitcher?

This A's team is what like 33-57? Wonderful performance playing down to the competition
