@barstoolWSD I don’t believe they ever nicked Lombard for the “fielder’s choice” he booted to let a run score and Simpson. Clearly an error and the ticker only moved to 4 when Lombard really pulled Garcia off 1st base with a throw.

@afkostka Is it me or does Basallo have an inordinate number of foul balls that he has trouble shaking off?

[Gridley Harris @GridleyHarris]

@Mikie01135 @afkostka Encarnacion Strand was benched today presumably for committing the same offense yesterday. Albernaz mentioned it in his post game presser. Problem is that neither he, nor his coaches felt it a teaching moment enough that JJ would run a count on Patrick.

[Gridley Harris @GridleyHarris]

@BallparkEGuides @jcalvinmeyer So true, this is a system failure. Vance Honeycutt went to an outside coach and raked at Double A after a horrific start to his career under “their” thumb. His coach preached bat to ball and shorten up…go figure.

[Gridley Harris @GridleyHarris]

@JakeDRill Elias and now Murphy, I swear to God I am being gaslighted…

[Gridley Harris @GridleyHarris]

@afkostka This last sentence is killing me…it is not the player’s choice in what to do with their at bats, they do what the manager tells them to. Problem with this team is that no one can bunt except Taveras. Is he implying that JJ chose to go for a HR instead of moving the runner over?

[Gridley Harris @GridleyHarris]

@afkostka Wait, Basallo is being praised for having a team at bat cuz he usually has an at bat independent of what the situation calls for? How about he does what you order him to do, Alby?

[Gridley Harris @GridleyHarris]

@afkostka That is disturbing to the Nth degree. Like it matters what Basallo wanted to do.

@LukaOhtani Having a challenge might have helped Varland not load the bases

Pete Alonso Quote on Selling out for Pull Side HRs

"It's dumb,"

"Organizations now are huge on fixed outcomes. Everyone wants a homer”

“Homers are just happy accidents. Why am I gonna just waste all of my at-bats trying to hit something I'm gonna do 1% of the time from all the pitches I see?"

[Gridley Harris @GridleyHarris]

@EutawStReport How about they burn the electronics, flush their brains and put bat to ball. I was a decent high school player. If I had ten whiffs and ten strikeouts over a 75AB season, I would be disappointed. These guys all have hand eye coordination to do it.

[Gridley Harris @GridleyHarris]

This is a great read for die-hard Oriole fans wondering what the hell happened with all the talent that Elias drafted. Certainly confirms what I’ve seen past 2 years.

Get a new regime in here and these players can be good again.

@EutawStReport Great article that confirms what we are seeing on the field. Great prospects that “the system” is failing.

[Gridley Harris @GridleyHarris]

@KevinMa51374267 @mvpfloorservice Gunnar actually shortened up, waited on the breaking ball and blooped a single to right. They can do it, they are coached to max swing speed and exit velocities. They only hit mistakes, their swings have more holes than Swiss cheese.

[Gridley Harris @GridleyHarris]

@jcrediblewritin @mvpfloorservice I’ve been watching him, he has an unorthodox long sweeping swing that MLB pitchers will find holes in, I am concerned…

[Gridley Harris @GridleyHarris]

@JasonLaCanfora I can’t even look at him, he makes me ill.

[Gridley Harris @GridleyHarris]

Holliday has 3 backward K’s in this game. He’s so messed up, he will never be good offensively or defensively. It was all smoke and mirrors.

Am I wrong to feel like the Orioles are like -10 on infield-in, go on contact plays. Seems like we never and they always../
