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

[Roy Firestone]

Lucky break for Burnes...

[Tony-OH]

Lol, KB getting sarcastic on Burnes and the umpire.

[OriolesMagic83]

Tempted to pull Burnes after 4 if the O's can get thru the inning w/ the lead.  It's bad when your "ace" is a 5 and dive starter.

Thats  the ONLY option...we dont have anyone on the bench as good as Rivera...

The velocity seems to be there. It seems that his mechanics is screwed up. This could be an injury that he's hiding.

[Aristotelian]

Another leadoff guy on base, third time in four innings.

Mullins Cowser and Holiday are 0-6 with 4 strikeouts and most of them were with man on 3rd less then 2 outs when they just needed to put it in play.  The rest of the lineup has gotten on base 8 out of the 11 times.  The offense is doing their job but need the other guys to contribute.

He is a gold glove power hitter. Why would anyone else play there. And I have no idea why he’s been available on waivers.

Honestly hurts me when I see that kinda thing.

Burnes throwers the same speed to the same area with his pitches and his mechanics are off and he’s missing up in the zone.

Hmmmm.. not enough to overturn?

Holliday has neither a particularly strong arm or quick release.
