[Surhoffan17]

God we are so underachieving...I haven't been this frustrated since 2005.

That does appear your shtick, yes.

Game threads are like Vegas. Anything goes. But it stays here. 

 

If you think the game is over, I'm calling you out. Turn off the game and stop posting.

This might be the most underachieving team in recent Orioles history. Where are we getting all of our wins from the rest of the year?

2018 wasn't recent?

Mayo hit that ball well...to the deepest part of CF...Im looking for ANY trend...

[spiritof66]

OK. Got the big bats, Mayo and Soto, coming up.

[Jagwar]

Mayo seems so close to figuring things out.

Fenway really is a throwback retro experience. Even the Vendors remind me of years gone by. They work their craft loudly like the old days and I haven't seen 1 card swipe.

He's making contact. Have to admit that's a start.

Yes I have. And it's baseball, and it's Fenway

My only beef with the game threads is that you get these freaking Eeyore Chicken Littles who declare "game over" in the 3rd inning of a game. If you really think that, then turn off the game, go to bed, and spare us your pessimistic BS. 

You have to predict the future based on the present, and the Orioles’ present and recent past gives absolutely no indication that we will win tonight. Therefore, assuming a loss, while pessimistic, is not at all unwarranted.

If you got beef, go make a burger.

You might have me there. At least they were so bad in the beginning that they couldn't collapse.

It was a thing.

I think proper board etiquette wouldn't include making snarking remarks about it.

Good thing I'm not critiquing anyone's board etiquette.

 

If you can’t handle negative criticism about a poorly performing O’s team, may I suggest go touching grass?

I am rooting for him as much as anyone, but that was 90.5 mph off the bat and 330 feet. Definition of a lazy fly ball.

I notice he's first pitch swinging tonight...

If you called out every person that felt negatively about 2 run deficits with the way the team has been performing, there’d by nobody left.
