I’m guessing it will take 83 wins to get the last Wild Card spot. That means the Orioles will have to go 38-28 the rest of the way. Does anyone truly believe they can do that? #Birdland
Tonight Tyler O’Neill is 0-3 with 2 strikeouts. He has seen 7 pitches total. He flew out in the first inning on the first pitch he saw. Then struck out twice on 3 pitches without even making contact with the baseball. He is absolutely awful. #Birdland
I really think now is the time to trade Mayo. There’s just no room for him on this roster. His defense is below average. The O’s have plenty of third and first basemen. And while he can mash a baseball, he also strikes out a lot. #Birdland
I’m so tired of using VAR to officiate the game after the fact. It’s killing the excitement of the sport. Every goal is followed by a committee meeting to officiate the match. #FIFAWorldCup
O’s lead 3-2 after 7. So….will Albernaz let Young come out for the 8th? And which O’s player will do something dumb to blow this game? Will it be an error? Or a reliever who comes in and immediately gives up 2 runs? #Birdland
I don’t believe the statcast home run lengths. They are saying that Blaze’s homer went 436 feet but Coby’s mammoth second deck homer against the Cubs only went 420? #Birdland
This team is so maddening to watch. Runners on first and second with no outs and they have their 4-5-6 batters coming up. Absolutely nothing. Strike out, ground out, ground out. Just awful. #Birdland
O’s win and avoid the sweep. If they could sweep the Royals then this win would mean something. But sadly they will probably lose 2 out of 3 to the Royals. #Birdland
It has to be so demoralizing to play on the O’s. Almost every game someone on the team does something that just kills the vibe. Sometimes it’s an error or an awful strikeout at bat. And lots of times it’s a pitcher giving up runs immediately after the O’s score. #Birdland
O’s have to figure out what they are going to do with Gunnar and Holliday. Both of them stink right now. But they still have a lot of potential. What can the organization do to turn them around? #Birdland
