Remember, multiple things can be true.
The O's just got a haul and a half for 1.5 years of a player that's been on the IL five times in the last 14 months.
Trading Adley is also a massive gut punch to a fanbase that thought that era of O's baseball was gonna mean something.
So in return for the first of four years of tanking, the Orioles get zero playoff wins and the prospects from the Red Sox. Make it make sense. Well, the ownership at that time made a lot of money.
that it actually hurts the team more than helps the team. I’m still hopeful they can turn it around. They have had a lot of moments late in the game where they make the improbable happen and always seem to be just 1 big moment away. Maybe they can climb out of the hole yet
Still reeling from the last week of loss. It’s hard to put in perspective when expectations don’t meet reality. I expected this team to perform better this year, offensively and defensively. Pitching an issue for sure. It’s shocking when the offense and defense has been so bad
Another night, another game the Os fall short. By their own hand. Situational hitting is brutal for this team. The game should have been over in the 9th but they just can’t seem to do the “little” things right yet again. Gotta score runner on 3rd less than 2 outs. Have to
At some point, the guy who expects a $500 million deal and the prize free agent $155 million signing need to PUT UP or SHUT UP.
FIGURE IT OUT.

Once again another team strikes with RISP 2 outs against our staff. We can’t seem to cash in even once. It’s infuriating and just plain not fun to watch. Team lives and dies by the long ball and we just don’t hit em
The O's, once again, can't bring a runner home with multiple men on and less than two outs.
57 pitches from Gilbert, and there's only one run to show for it.

The O’s left 10 runners on base tonight. This is the 12th game this season where they’ve left 10+ runners on base.
They also went just 1 for 9 with RISP, made some poor decisions on the basepaths, and gave up a grand slam.
Overall, not good baseball. Record is now 31-36 and riding a 3-game losing streak.
They really can’t afford to keep playing games like this if they want to be playing in October.
At the end of the night this is a bad bad baseball loss. Bad execution early in the game to put them in position for a 5 spot. Bad execution on offense to only score 2 more runs. It’s just so hard for this team to win when they can’t get out of their own way.
