8/30 @ Rockies

[RavensNOsGuy]

Haha “one of the best hitters in baseball”. Just freaking stop.

[Wavetrapper]

If we somehow win this game, it will be undeserved 

Horrible showing 

[LGOrioles]

This is what they do. Multiple opportunities to add on runs against a terrible opponent after a great start by Suarez. We’ll see if the bullpen can hold them at 2 because this offense likely ain’t scoring again. 

[OsFanSinceThe80s]

Ugh even when Gunnar makes solid contact it's an out.

Good value, huh?

Yes, but I think that says more about how far into the toilet Burnes has gone.

If Gunnar is gonna produce like a 9 hole hitter maybe he needs to hit in the 9 hole.

This is why I say at this point,  do we really lose much if he takes a game or two off?  We have a whole team of guys that can go 1 for 16.

Gunnar has hit balls at 103 and 105 tonight. At least theres that , I suppose.

He's in the prime of his physical condition of his life at 27 years old. 

Eloy might be W/C bound by 35 due to lack of physical conditioning.

[O's84]

Remember when it seemed like a lock for Gunnar to hit 40 HRS? Guy only has 5 since the ASB.

[Hank Scorpio]

Yeah tough to be mad at 102 off the bat. Sometimes baseball sucks.

[LGOrioles]

Even the games they luck into winning are more of a sigh of relief at this point vs actual confidence builders. Tough to feel good about this team right now. 

[Tony-OH]

The Orioles have 9 hits, including 3 doubles and home run and have scored three runs. That's hard to do.

[Aristotelian]

I'm a little surprised Al is still in

[terpoh]

I think that with Coulombe and Webb coming back, and with the deadline aquisitions looking better, the Bullpen may be our best strength down the stretch. Not sure how our offense will get much better. Sure, Gunnar should heat up again, but we have 3-4 auto outs most nights.

Me too, but he absolutely should still be in there.
