Are you talking about the 70’s Red Sox? BTW, first half OPS .761/ second half .799. We ran out of the comeback mojo. 3run jobs in the first half/ solo blasts in the second. The piss poor defense caught up to us. The rag tag pen that had somehow held us together for 4 months, gave it up more often than we could handle. The Houck-Sale replacing Perez-Richards wasn’t enough. Schwarber, Iggy, Shaw & Robles gave us enough to make up the difference, but the other gave it back and more. We did get some answers to important preseason questions, and not all were what we hoped for, but I do think we filled a few holes and watched our farm improve. I’m feeling better about 2022 than I did last September or the start of this season. That is little solace, right now. To watch the promise and dream this season gave us for so long go down the drain against a team like the O’s brings us full circle to the first series of the year. We were tied with everyone before that April series, and now we’re tied for the last slot with 3 to go. How fitting. We went on a long winning streak after that sweep, but I think the magic is all used up. Maybe what I thought was grit was just a mirage- just a tease. I know it’s not over, but now we let the Ms into the party with the Jays knocking on the door. It’s hard to find optimism, right now. Probably tomorrow I’ll have a different outlook, but this is the pits.

I’m confused. I’m agreeing with you and you disagree with that.

Like clockwork. You only come out at the lowest points of the season.

Lay it on me. You were right. I was wrong. Again.

I’m too numb to be pissed.

Maybe just $3-5M is needed.

I’m rethinking my trade JD position.

With the budget savings.

Trade Bogey- love those guys that put the ball in play rather than K.

Lol

You mean sex appeal?

Top of the order. Don’t leave it to the bottom!

Waiting for a lefty pitcher in the 9th.

We have to lead the league in line outs to end innings.

WP to score- so fitting.

Their futures shares just tumbled.

When does Dalbec PH?

JD has been the one guy consistently getting on base.

I can’t believe I even sniffed at the idea that Richards might be worth the $8.5M differential on the bonus/buy out. This makes that choice a no brainer. (I know, I know, one game is too small a sample size to make definitive judgments, but I’m so done with GR.)

Thanks Garrett!

Come on. This is the O’s. Not saying we’re gonna win, but still...

Meat of the line up. Get it done!

This is now or never time. We can’t lose a game like this.

Brasier has been a surprising BOOST

weird, yes.
