9/19 - Zach Eflin vs. Logan Webb

[Moose Milligan]

That's 3.

Quick, somebody tell the Orioles it's 6-0 in the 8th inning. Then they'll hit a solo shot.

The O'Hearn Cinderella story is over

Best hope is a solo homer from Santander and a 1-0 win

Careful. I said that the other day and got yelled at here. Lol

You know, somewhere there's a team meeting happening where Hyde tells everybody that baseball is kid's game and they need to re-find their love for the sport. 

Take the team to a pumpkin patch, a spin class, something. Good lord these guys are a bunch of stiffs.

At least Gunnar got the possibility of a no hitter out of the way early so we can get on to the shut out

[LGOrioles]

They’re just an absolute joke. They haven’t scored in the first 2 innings of a game in 7 straight games. Talk about getting off to a hot start.

[OsFanSinceThe80s]

Nothing but strikeouts and weak popups from this lineup.

His OPS is getting scarily close to dropping below .700. Add that to his awful 1B defense, and never ending place in the middle of the order and he’s been probably the biggest drag to the team during this downfall.

Maybe there needs to be a Hunger Games where each crappy hitting player on the Orioles not named Gunnar Henderson has to go into the woods with their positional counterpart from the minors. Whoever can hit their way out of the games gets to be in the majors the rest of the year. 

[Three Run Homer]

Orioles are just making terrible swing decisions.  They swing at crap out of the zone (Santander and Cowser's strikeouts) but then they take center cut fastballs (Adley).

O'Hearn has value as a platoon DH versus right handed pitching who can fill in at 1B. O'Hearn is not an everyday 1B for a winning team.

Yea I'm not trying to dog on O'Hearn but he's clearly not an every day player. I never thought I'd miss Mountcastle this much.
