9/2 Orioles vs White Sox (Burnes Get Right or Continue to Flounder Game)

[Yossarian]

Cowser is the opposite of clutch.

[Roy Firestone]

Santander and Cowser just swinging at everything. Several swings in their at bats at pitches that weren’t even close to strikes.

Trying to do too much. 

The book's out on Cowser. No fastballs.

21 pitches, 3 whiffs. Yeah, the defense sucks. But so did Burnes.

3 whiffs on 10 swings is a 30% whiff rate. Which would basically be top 10 among SPs.

I just got on

That 1st inning (except the Gunnar HR) is an absolute microcosm of Orioles baseball.   Perfect in every way.

This is the most un-fun orioles team I can remember in a long time. And yes I loved through the 2018-2021 and 1999-2012 era’s

Burnes and Rutschman have got to be better in order for us to have a shot in the playoffs, but situational hitting has been a consistent problem too. Not sure how we win if we don't hit homers.

We struggle against bad teams too, so I'm not seeing a sweep in this series. 

[Aristotelian]

Error, missed cutoff, and 2x missed sac fly opportunities. That's the 2024 Orioles in a nutshell.

[Moose Milligan]

Come on Burnes you hack 

[LGOrioles]

All they need is a GB against a guy that K’s less than 16% of the batters he faced. And they go back to back K’s. Just beyond terrible with RISP and situationally at this point. 

Another opportunity to change the complexion of a game and jump out to an early lead and they squander it. It’s gotten to the point that it actually would have been surprising if they were able to score a run there.

The complete book is no fastballs and don't throw your change up for a strike.

The 5 headed hitting coaches need to be kicked to the curb after the season. The entire philosophy needs an overhaul

This team has been unwatchable for a long time now
