On the bright side I think the '83 O's had two 7 game losing streaks. Keep hope alive.

Even the 1969 Orioles(109 wins) lost 5 in a row.  Still sucks to lose to a team like the Twins who have been playing like crap lately.

At least Vespi looked good.

The Twins are talented and I always hate playing a team that has just got embarrassed.

 

Correa and Buxton showed up last night.

Last night sucked.  I sat through another long rain delay and the game was over in the second inning.

 

The Orioles are going through a rough patch.  They will recover and play better.

 

We need Bradish to have a good game tonight.

 

On the positive, Adley swung the bat well last night and good job by Vespi saving the pen.

We need help from outside the MLB roster. Get Cowser here. Trade for a BP arm. Get a SP. then make more moves at the deadline. But it’s pretty obvious we’re not going to remain a top 5 team in MLB with the current roster.

It doesn't take much to be a top 5 team anymore.  There's so much parity and plenty of bad teams to go around.  I think the Orioles could retain their current status with the roster they have but once you get into the play-offs and pitching becomes paramount, they're going to have problems. They just don't score enough to overcome below average pitching.
