Yeah there are opportune times to snag third base. That was not one of them.

Fermin has a gun for an arm, but he has hands of stone.

I"m not going to fault Henderson too much.

I think Roberts made a good point.

He probably thought the ball was further away.

Perez threw three actual strikes in that nine pitch AB, yet still got Melendez to flare to SS for the out.

 

That’s baseball.

I guess tip of the cap to Baker, Voth, and Perez. Well more Baker and Perez. Still butts were clinched too often and you get the feeling if it werent KC it woulda ended differently

Matches their high point of the year at 16 over .500. Not bad for a group thats just not competitive right now. Right BaltBird.

Have to get a sweep tomorrow.  Beat up on the bad teams and play .500 against the really good ones and you're pretty much guaranteed of a play-off spot.

It feels like they've gotten past the mini slump of the last two weeks. May have been mental breakdown after that excellent run through winning teams in May.

Henderson really making solid contact lately. Good to see. Looks like he's finally made the right adjustments.


"The infielder spent most of the season hitting below .200, but he entered Saturday with an .874 OPS since May 8. In his past 26 at-bats, Henderson has 10 hits with three home runs."

That has to be a split-second decision.  He got it wrong, but there is way to much good going on with Gunnar to worry about it.

 

I have been telling my sons for about 2 weeks that Gunnar is going to be the best Oriole hitter the second half.  He has begun to relax and his talent is taking over.

Through yesterday (not including today's 2-5, HR performance):

Last 28 days: .901 OPS

Last 14 days: .934 OPS

Last 7 days: 1.346 OPS

 

The kid's en fuego.

If Mountcastle is gonna start riding the pine against RHP we need a better LH bat than Lester for DH/1B/OF.

Not a first baseman, but I have heard good things about Cowser.   Come on Mike get him up here.

Unreal. Point remains. You have to do better than Voth and Perez. These last two innings likely arent gonna be easy either if indeed Bautista is unavailable

Weren't you criticizing other posters for being negative?
