7/7 - O's @ M's... Can we solve Bedard?

Perhaps Guthrie just didn't get loose enough in warm ups, or the long top of the 1st hurt him a little bit? You gotta think Bancells wouldn't have left him out there if something was really wrong. I guess we'll see.

Either way, it's pretty sad given Guthrie's starts to games this year. You'd think they'd have this down by now (if he's not hurt, that is.)

Guthrie to the DL, Tillman up. Hill to the pen, Arrieta up.

That would be AMAZING to see.

Stop kidding yourselves guys. I've tried to let him change my mind, but Guthrie is terrible. Lucky to be a #5 guy on a decent team.

I hate to say it, but your right. It's not reactionary either. He's been a homer happy pitcher all year. I just don't see how he has any trade value anymore.

Hope the O's decided to play this one under protest.
Clearly that's not a protestable play. The umps didn't get a rule wrong. They made a judgment call that Reimold wasn't to 2nd base at the time the throw was released.

None of us know for sure, since they haven't shown a camera angle where you could see where Reimold was at the time Gutierrez released the ball. You can speculate, but nobody knows for certain.

    • I understand the importance of team chemistry. Not sure I understand at all the reference to the Yankees. Their chemistry appears to be fine from what I can tell. Maybe you have some inside info there? Our chemistry based on recent media revelations and Hays’ parting shot does not appear to be as good as you are stating. Furthermore, even if our chemistry is superb, the problem is that “chemistry” is not very effective on the mound. Our pitching has been horrible (near the bottom of the league) for over a month now (since Bradish’s injury). It does not appear that team chemistry has the ability to fix that.
    • They needed the 40 man spot as well.  They are guessing Nittoli makes it through waivers.  
    • Many major league players don’t make a top 100 prospect list. Stowers has a .797 OPS. What else does he need to do? We’ve picked up a kid from the Phillies who has proven over 3 or 4 seasons that he’s not a MLB hitter and can’t be sent down. It was a stupid pick up…. Get the reliever and a A ball player. 
    • Marsh can flex to CF like Cowser.     I hope Hays gets a clean look at returning to closer to an everyday role. Roch on the pregame show went to the place of wondering aloud if Hays' agent asked for a trade.    Ulitmately whether Dombrowski tenders Hays or not, Austin can use playing time to establish his place in the 2025 market, or how high the Bid/Ask will be for Arb. A few minutes later, Melanie featured that  Mullins and Hays had picked up a charitable effort Gibson did last year, an organization having an event this weekend Cedric will now have to do alone.
    • Out of all our prospects, you valued Etzel the most?
    • I think you have to be careful with a big trade like that. The reason why we are so good now has a lot to do with team chemistry. Splitting up all these talented teammates will turn you into the Yankees if you’re not careful- not knowing if they will gel as a team. You can’t put a price on the chemistry many of these players have built up over the years. 
    • Norby looks fine to me so far…. Tripping appeared to be nerves to me and I’m willing to give him a pass. Kjerstad needs to be grommet at 1B or just DH imo. Maybe hidden in RF…but playing him in LF here is beyond stupid. Even before last night I’ve said several times that he just looks shaky.
