Tyler Wells vs Anthony DeSclafani

[BSLSteveBirrer]

Need to get back to winning series again.

Not good with Mullins and possibly Henderson on the shelf.

[BaltBird 24]

The good news is we have our best SP on the mound today.

[BSLSteveBirrer]

Two good offensive games the last week plus isn't a good sign. But maybe its just the pitchers we faced? Sure hope Mullis is back sooner than later and that Henderson isn't a big issue either.

Gunnar Henderson’s lower back discomfort has been a lingering issue in recent days, Brandon Hyde said, and he was removed as a precaution. “He’ll be fine,” Hyde said.

Lester getting the start at 3B today.

[BaltBird 24]

Surprised at how bad Mountcastle has been vs RHP this year. He's got a .562 OPS VS RHP, .610 OPS overall last 30 days. He's always been streaky, but it's time to look into upgrading the 1B position.

Frazier 2nd

Rutschman DH
Santander RF
Hays LF
Hicks CF
Mountcastle 1st

Watching MLB and they showed a stat....last 8 games the O's have scored 3 or less 6 times. Hence the 3-5 run.

They're definitely no juggernaut offensively.  It's going to be a grind all year but so far, they've more than held their own.

Happily woulda had OHearn over Mountcastle at 1b today. Its prob not any real difference but Ill take the small edges. O Hearn 2-6 with a double in the series so far

Do you not read any other threads

I have a real job and sometimes miss a few days depending on how busy work is. Missing too many of your ROFL posts recently.

[TwentyThirtyFive]

Its been brought up at least twice in the last week. In game threads too and you rarely miss those

They were great early on at getting on base even when they weren't hitting great. Just from watching, I feel like their drawing BB has fallen off significantly.

Could be. Don't follow it that closely.  Adley still seems to be drawing his walks and Henderson too.  Maybe the others have reverted to being free swingers again.  Hell, even Mateo was drawing walks in the first few weeks but I doubt he's had very many since as his batting average fell like a rock.

Offense looks to be firing on all cylinders so far today.

Granted, Frazier started in a 0-2 hole after watching two pitches well outside the strike zone.

DeSclafani is a pretty good pitcher.  Probably won't be easy sledding today either.

1 out, Top of the 2nd, no score.
