@tjhenry109 @OriolesStatist1 Sure but Al is a big reason why we won so many games in 2023. (NOT anymore obviously).... Seeing that with Young a bit this season.

[Rachel ☕Marie Winchester☕ @readingRachel25]

Just tuning in. I apparently missed a very exciting first inning...

[Rachel ☕Marie Winchester☕ @readingRachel25]

Ward maybe for pitching. Rico no. Only decent BP if we are still in it we need to keep him around.

[SleeperOrioles @SleeperOrioles]

Taylor Ward and Rico Garcia are the big trade pieces @JeffPassan mentions in his trade deadline preview

The Orioles are 1.5 games back of the AL Wild Card, should they consider selling these two or keep them for a playoff push? #Birdland

[Rachel ☕Marie Winchester☕ @readingRachel25]

@birdlandminute All of it was a hot mess. Get the bats hot and the pitcher isn't squeezed. Good outfield defense and you don't let in 2 extra runs. Definitely one of those nights. Good news Rays lost and looks like Jays and Yankees might too.

[Rachel ☕Marie Winchester☕ @readingRachel25]

@birdlandminute And pitcher.

💯💯💯

[Rachel ☕Marie Winchester☕ @readingRachel25]

@birdlandminute Definitely. And whatever they did tonight it didn't work 😭😭😭😭😭

[Rachel ☕Marie Winchester☕ @readingRachel25]

@birdlandminute If a team doesn't think defense also wins games. I guess. 🤷‍♀️

[Rachel ☕Marie Winchester☕ @readingRachel25]

@birdlandminute Challenge I suppose. So challenging that they should still be attempting infielders in the outfield. No 😅😅

[Rachel ☕Marie Winchester☕ @readingRachel25]

@birdlandminute Been watching the O's since I was a kid ha. So yes. He could also DH but then you lose Adley or Basallo. I mainly just grumble about infielder in the outfield and then over use of relying on analytics and platooning.

[Rachel ☕Marie Winchester☕ @readingRachel25]

Win the series tomorrow I guess 🤷‍♀️

[Rachel ☕Marie Winchester☕ @readingRachel25]

@birdlandminute @lilcal8 I think Mayo over Holliday still. Really like Blaze at 3rd.

[Rachel ☕Marie Winchester☕ @readingRachel25]

@birdlandminute Exactly. You either play your young guys and let them develop or you play guys like Blaze. It depends ok who's hot at the moment. Right now he is. He hasn't been all season. So I'm sure it'll change throughout the season too. Just nlt in CF 😭

[Rachel ☕Marie Winchester☕ @readingRachel25]

Well at least we aaren't the only team having CF issues tonight

[Rachel ☕Marie Winchester☕ @readingRachel25]

@birdlandminute I have but so are guys like Mayo and Holliday. Just don't put him in the outfield is all I ask. He has his streaks. I'm okay benching Mayo/Holliday it it means Blaze is hitting over putting him in CF any day.

[Rachel ☕Marie Winchester☕ @readingRachel25]

It would also help to not play infielders in the outfield.

[SleeperOrioles @SleeperOrioles]

Maybe it's time for someone other than Suarez in this bullpen #Birdland

[Rachel ☕Marie Winchester☕ @readingRachel25]

@JulianTBaron 10th is good for me.

[Rachel ☕Marie Winchester☕ @readingRachel25]

@birdlandminute Mayo 3rd, Gunnar short, Holliday 2nd, Alonso 1b Adley/Basallo DH or catcher, Cowser RF, Ward LF, Taveras Center. Rotate Blaze in when infielder and DH'ers need breaks. I'm tired of the infielder in the outfield thing, it does not work. O'neill can go to whatever team wants him 😅

[Rachel ☕Marie Winchester☕ @readingRachel25]

@birdlandminute Would prefer in some ways for some games over Blaze in CF. Its why I don't like constructing a line up based only on analytics and platooning (Elias.....)

[Rachel ☕Marie Winchester☕ @readingRachel25]

O'neill draws a walk 👀
