Either my presence at the game last night or the new Connect jerseys gave the Oβs bad luck. π€·π½ββοΈ

Bad GRod in there tonight. I think he needs to be sent back down and bake a little longer. This happened after the game. At least as much to provide depth at pitcher as to give him work.

Believe it or not, I'm going to two O's games this weekend. Friday night's game and Monday's game. Invited to go to the games by friends and family. Probably won't wear my Yankees cap to Camden Yards this weekend. The O's are 0-2 in their games that I have attended this year. I'll be sure to get tickets for the next time they play the Yankees at home

Today in 1982, Ripken began his streak. I suspect it will never be broken because the modern player does not think like Ripken, Gehrig, or men like that did.

Killing time until Cowser hopefully.

Killing time until Cowser hopefully. Yup. Also, probably time to call up Westburg. Mateo is becoming a hole in the lineup. Of course that's all killing time until Jackson Holiday, who's been ridiculous at High A ball this year. Wouldn't surprise me at all if he isn't here in September. Manny was 20 when he first came up...

Not sure what the hell the O's are doing today, pitching by committee? Not even trying to win here??

Perez is awful. Needs to be sent down or cut. Awful.
Now putting in Givens? They really aren't even trying. Bizarre.

It doesn't matter who they put in today. Everyone is getting hammered. So I might as well join them Cheers!

Hicks had two hits and walk in his debut. Unfortunately he doesn't pitch.

Aaron Judge destroys the wall at Dodger stadium The real surprise there is that the crash did not send him to the IL!

Hicks has done well so far.
I wonder how much longer Hyde sticks with Mateo, though he seems to have at least gotten somewhat out of his major slump. Westburg is tearing it up right now at Norfolk. Cowser, I think would be here, but he's injured? Kjerstad just promoted to Norfolk.
There is some seriously good talent waiting in the wings and creating a bit of a logjam. Holiday is still just 19 and at A+, can't really see him coming up until next year, or maybe in September at the earliest. I could see the infield being Henderson, Holiday, Westburg, Mountcastle in 2024. Have to wonder if someone like Stowers won't be moved to try and get a starting pitcher. Earlier I would have said Santander, but he's been too valuable as of late.

Bad loss last night. Cano is showing he's human after all.
Tough test against Burnes tonight.

Had to expect to them to go through some dry spells. Losing Tuesday night really sucked. Gotta avoid sweep tonight before we face some easier competition.

No doubt, but we all get a taste of winning early and it suddenly feels like the sky falling. I need to lose the football mentality since there's still 100 games to go.
Doesn't help that the whole division is good and the Rays are an unstoppable force.

The Tuesday game was the one that should have been won. Last night was the game there were supposed to lose.
Ok, it's a long season. Deep breaths. That said, just call Westburg up already.

I knew if I posted that they would rally Good to avoid the sweep. Shame they didn't get that first game and we'd be talking about them rolling.

Our SPs do seem to throw a lot of pitches in the first inning a lot.
Great comeback win. This team has heart. You can't deny them that.
Shame they blew the lead on Tuesday but avoiding the sweep was a major positive after getting down 3-0 early.
