7/21 @ Baltimore

[Station 13]

Well, there's the slight chance that some GM of a non-contending team may, as someone here already mentioned, value Beni, believing a change of scenery might prove beneficial.

 

He's slumping but c'mon who hasn't.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

An embarrassing day thus far for this team. Running out of innings.

 

The great thing about baseball is there is no clock. It only takes one inning.

[Station 13]

Brock Holt, a fly in the ointment for the Os this afternoon

[TylerD]

Could get ugly. I am just glad that the nfl season is around the corner otherwise this would be even more depressing .

 

MKes two of us!

[fxkatt]

Holt would actually make a good lead-off hitter.

[TylerD]

Yeah, this would be a BAD LOSS given what's ahead of us. Not inspiring to fans or players.

 

Yup if we lose this series. Tampa and New York we are toast. I mean..... probably toast if we lose this series regardless.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Means and Mancini deserve to be on a better team. Their talents are completely wasted with the O's.

[Station 13]

Would Nunez have bunted instead?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Also, baseball provides more cliches than any other sport.

[DontCallMeUncleRico]

That's baseball for ya. Game of averages. Score 16 runs one game and 0 runs 0 hits the next.

[a700hitter]

I guess our hitters have heat exhaustion from running the bases so much yesterday.

[d-money]

This is absolutely pathetic.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I guess our hitters have heat exhaustion from running the bases so much yesterday.

 

I blame the O's starter and first reliever for that.

Said it last year and it has been even more true this year or at least more exposed to be true.

 

There is literally no reason to throw the Red Sox a FB for a strike unless you absolutely have to do it for some insane reason. If a pitcher has command of his breaking stuff, these guys are MEAT.....stick a fork in them meat.

Yup, use the FB as a waste pitch and hope the curve doesn't hang.

[a700hitter]

How can we not hit this kid. He was a throw away prospect from a number of organizations.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Cashner was one run away from a quality start. Mancini pretty much ruined the day for him. However, he did pitch a lot better than overpriced Porcello.

[TylerD]

I don’t even know anymore 6 innings. 4 runs. Probably considered good compared to some of the trash we have had this year but still not good. This offense has been dreadful though.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

3rd hard hit ball by Devers.

[jung]

A shame X could not do more with his AB. The two guys that can actually hit breaking stuff in this lineup are Rafi and X. Holt can...but its not like something Holt hits is going anywhere.

[YastrzemskI]

Looks like another L. No answers for Wojciechowski today. Get some packages together and move some of these bums. I would start with Benintendi as soon as he has a decent game. Get this turd out of here..

[d-money]

Thank god they can be happy they got one hit. What a f***ing joke of a game .

His body language says it all.

He’s completely lost .

i’ll Take that from our #5 starter. Hitters bats were sluggish after all that hitting yesterday.

[fxkatt]

Cashner was one run away from a quality start. Mancini pretty much ruined the day for him. However, he did pitch a lot better than overpriced Porcello.

 

Both of his outings have been neither that bad or that good. I suspect he'll be more valuable to us down the line.

Why wait for a decent game? Do you seriously think major league GMs care if a guy just had a decent game?

The games will only get tougher from here on out. Heads need to roll after the season’s over.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

SOX definitely cooled off since last night. Not easy to do when the temperature is near 100 degrees.

Agree. 4 runs will keep you in most games. Unfortunately, the O’s pitcher picked today to have a career game.

[Swiharts Ghost]

It's happening way too much .Destroy a team get nearly no hit .The offense certainly is a problem runs scored or no runs scored its a real issue .JDM and Benny have been terrible .Numbers metrics what ever .The team needs more offense.
