I dunno but this is what comes to mind for me when I think of this team right now:

 

 

Cause they’re straight up JUNK. If you found a baseball team in Stanford’s lot it’d be the Orioles right now.

 

Pretty sure that's the song that plays in Elias' office and he scans the waiver wire, AAA opt outs, and his trading deadline deals for Eloy Jimenez and Rogers.

They should bring out the Benny Hill music when ever the O's play defense.

Dodgers don't respect our defense.

My daughter’s 8U softball team wouldn’t respect our defense.

When you have game after game where you have 3 or fewer hits, at some point you have to wonder what value our 2 hitting coaches and "offensive strategy coach" are adding.

Elias doesn't believe in drafting pitchers.  To him to do it is like the plague.

SIGBOT says its dangerous but drafting Donta Williams types in the 4th round are a better way to improve.

We’re third in runs per game! I saw it here!

How many of you are going to get splashed by Cal. Gotta be a handful of you guys

They brought in this whole VAA thing and its been an utter disaster throughout the whole organization.

Hey, a RISP. A strikeout, pop up or double play?

[O's84]

Maybe Holliday can pull a Weaver here and get us back in the game.  I doubt it will happen but I'd love it if he did.

Won’t be any splashing since we can’t hit.

I'm going with the strike out.

If Hyde is not gone after this season then at least the entire hitting philosophy needs to be..

You've got to be kidding me. Nothing surprises me anymore.

This listless performance comes from the top. Hyde needs to go

You can't blame poor results on a manager, but this team has been lifeless and dead for 2 months.  There's no energy and I just feel like some guys are just going thru the motions.  You can't convince there is the same effort the O's players put into game during the stretch run of 2023.  I think Hyde might need to go too.  Go ahead and flame me.

We’ve helped Miller get his ERA under 7 tonight. So there’s that.
