Yes, but after this season, it will get more difficult for Baltimore to keep this team together. Hardy is a free agent and is likely headed to the Yankees or another SS needy club for the highest bidder, which won't be Baltimore. And Markakis is free agent bound as the O's aren't touching that $17.5M option.

 

The problem is that Baltimore lacks the deep pockets of the Yankees, Red Sox and Blue Jays to keep their team together (this is their first $100M+ payroll EVER).. and they have a ton of arb raises and options coming up on their pitching, bullpen, and the suspended Chris Davis.

 

 

Even with those loses they look overall better than the Jays

Haha, I love Stroman.

 

I actually think that might have been intentional by Stroman. Nice to see some fire under the boys, although if he does do that with intent he needs to make damn sure he keeps the ball below the head.

Always embarrassing when your being sucky against a team that will make the playoffs

 

Couldn't agree more. Hats off to the O's for a hell of a season. Wish we were in their position.

finally jays throw at someone payback for hitting Cabrera last series they played

 

Exactly Baltimore had that coming SHowalter can shut his mouth.

We never know in those situations, it's suspicious that Joseph was the batter, but Stroman missed the zone by a lot later in the same sequence. I think he got pissed off and that's why he looked over to the O's dugout.

Free thanks up for grabs.

 

On a close play at the plate Joseph stepped on Reyes' foot on the transfer to make the tag, Reyes got pissed about it, but probably was just a reflex. Recently Stroman missed above Joseph while he was at the plate, ump issued warnings. Stroman later struck out Joseph and as he was walking back to the dugout looked over at the O's dugout and tensions flared, but no one went off the bench.

Excellent summary.

Oops, forgot Nelson Cruz. He's a goner as well.. no way the O's give him $15M+/year, especially with the Yanks and Rangers expected to bid on him. It's uncertain what the O's will be like next year, or whether they will be competitive. Their window is nearing its end, especially as Jones ages, and the current core hits free agency.

I look forward to them sucking next year.

Royals losing too.

 

s***, I hate the Jays.

 

Well, their manager is worse than Gibbons in Ned Yost. I mean, using Crow vs. Nava yesterday? That's a fireable offense.

Don't hold your breath if they still have Showalter they'll be competitive.
