  1. Agreed At this point we want 3/4 - The Rays are running away with it and we can't do anything about it The Yankees are sinking themselves The Orioles are garbage These Red Sox are overperforming and we need to take every single chance to beat the fuxkers head to head The first loss of this series still stings. Win tomorrow and I can let it go...
  2. Agreed The way baseball tends to go tomorrow will be a 2-1 game or something
  3. Another great first inning Top of the lineup is so dangerous
  4. Do we really want Vlad stealing bases with a 5 run lead?
  5. I completely agree with this If you don't think the starter has another full inning in him start fresh
  6. That's the pity of it All we need is bullpen help and Springer back I even like our SP
  7. Or put Semien behind Vlad when Springer starts leading off
  8. In this ballpark? Yeah you can't We need to never let him become a Red Sock
  9. Tyler Chatwood stresses me out more than just about anything in my life right now
  10. He'd be an amazing get but the Orioles never trade players at the right time. They always wait to the last minute and get little in return.
  11. An Underrated Reliever Who Could Find Himself On The Trade Market By Anthony Franco | June 10, 2021 at 10:37pm CDT Still amidst a multi-year rebuild, the Orioles are one of a handful of teams around the league certain to trade players off the big league roster in advance of the July 30 deadline. Much of the discussion about the club in the coming weeks figures to revolve around the potential availability of staff ace John Means and first baseman Trey Mancini, with good reason. But there’s a lower-profile Oriole whose excellent performance should draw plenty of attention from contenders: lefty reliever Paul Fry. A former 17th-round pick of the Mariners, Fry was traded to Baltimore for international signing bonus space back in 2017. He made his MLB debut the following year. While Fry began as a rather nondescript middle reliever, he’s quietly been lights-out for the past two seasons. Since the start of 2020, Fry has pitched to a 2.22 ERA that ranks twelfth among big league relievers (minimum 40 innings). Relievers can sometimes fluke their way into strong ERA’s given their generally small sample workloads, but that doesn’t appear to be the case with Fry. He’s among the top 25 bullpen arms in strikeout rate (33%), strikeout/walk rate differential (22.9 percentage points), SIERA (2.98) and ground ball rate (55.3%) over the last two years. Quite simply, he’s done almost everything teams want from a pitcher. He’s shown the ability to both miss bats and keep the ball on the ground, so it’s no surprise he continues to post scoreless innings. His 10.1% walk rate, while slightly worse than league average, is far from disastrous. Fry was very good in 2020, and he’s seemingly taken his game to another level this season. Fry’s punching out hitters at a career-best 36.7% rate this year, helping him pitch to a 1.99 ERA across 22 2/3 frames. He’s averaging a career-high 93.5 MPH on his four-seam fastball, which is missing bats at an elite level. And Fry’s been equally dominant against hitters from both sides of the plate, holding left-handed and right-handed batters alike to a sub-.500 OPS. That level of on-field dominance is interesting enough, but Fry’s contractual status makes him all the more appealing a trade target. He’s making just more than the league minimum salary this season and comes with three additional years of team control via arbitration. Even the lowest-payroll contenders would have no issue adding Fry to the books; the same is true of big-market teams seemingly set on staying underneath the luxury tax threshold (i.e. Astros, Red Sox and Yankees).
  12. Vlad hit our only HR. That ball would have been out in most football stadiums/airports.
  13. Lost a game in which they had 16 hits I have no words
  14. Before this game, Jays starters had a better collective ERA than the Red Sox starters Bullpen is the problem
  15. Before this game, Jays starters had a better collective ERA than the Red Sox starters Bullpen is the problem
  16. Tyler Chatwood stresses me out more than pretty much anything in my life right now
