9/8 Roku Rubber Match vs. Rays

[royalstillman]

How many batting titles do our hitting coaches have? Or even major league hits?

 

 

 

Thought so .

This team is so damn mediocre.

Deluca effectively acknowledged he was looking for and sitting on a cutter.   Smart offensive strategy by low draft pick Rays.  Do they have an offensive strategy coach?

Certainly a better one than the swing for the fences Orioles coaches...

[Tony-OH]

Burnes should hire his own sports psychologist. Such a fragile demeanor. Can't hold runners so they take him off his game. Somebody makes error? Runs get piled on. 

Now watch, a little blooper. Watch him cough up a 3-run homer.

And it wasn't a cutter, it was a hanging slider.

[Three Run Homer]

C'mon Burnes, get out of this and keep the team in the game.

Burnes is tipping his pitches or something.  Yet no apparent adjustments.  Frustrating.

If he was tipping were they just playing coy the first 5 innings?

[Surhoffan17]

Taylor Walls ready to flex his mighty muscles right here. He's like Ray Lewis in 2000 facing a running back (Corbin Burnes for this metaphor).

I would but unfortunately the Ravens already played. I need to go ride my bike. 

I actually need to do that too.. or maybe take a walk.

Forget that, how much major league experience coaching? Minor League experience coaching? Oh, they're good it looking at a computer program.

Well the very descriptive "skyball" is not good enough for you? I mean it could be a foul straight back, a pop up, a 400 ft home run. All you have to do is wait for the crowd to tell you if you are listening to her on radio.

What would you call a ball hit on the ground?  Wormball?  Downball?

[Three Run Homer]

Good job by Burnes settling down.  At least he preserves the theoretical possibility of the O's coming back.  

[Roy Firestone]

Last time I looked, you cant win if you cant score. As average as Burnes has been we would take 2 runs in 6 innings from anyone else.We simply have NO offense...

O’Hearn is not a 3 hole hitter

[HowAboutThat]

I’m not watching, but I would like to publicly call out hide, yet again, for not anticipating this, and getting the bullpen ready, because I know he did not because he’s an idiot
