Kyle Bradish vs Zach Eflin

[Slidemaster]

With McClanahan going tomorrow, this is a golden opportunity to ensure they leave Tampa still in 1st.

[Nigel Tufnel]

Likely no Cano or Bautista tonight, so hopefully Bradish pitches a good game and the O's score some runs.

[Mike B]

The Orioles do not use relievers 3 games in a row, so Felix likely will be a spectator, but he has only thrown 23 pitches, the last 2 days (to cover 3 innings), so I expect him back for tomorrow.

Let's Go Bradish.  Carry the day, for the Good Guys.

Something tells me that if they need him they'll use him in this series.

[Nigel Tufnel]

Blech.  They'll probably score 10 runs.

 

Henderson, SS

Adley, C

Santander, RF

O'Hearn, 1B

Mountcastle, DH

Hays, LF

Cowser, CF

Frazier, 2B

Westburg, 3B

[Slidemaster]

At some point Cowser needs to get it going.

Maybe last night was the start.  It was nice to see him excited in his last 2 AB's.

 

He is talented.  It will come.

I like the lineup.

[BaltBird 24]

Give me Urias at 2B and that's my lineup. Maybe swap out Mountcastle for Hicks.

[BSLSteveBirrer]

For sure I'd swap Hicks for Mountcastle. But maybe they are trying to get him going against RH pitching. 

[BaltBird 24]

Hicks does seem to have a little issue staying healthy so maybe the extra rest days will be beneficial. He'll be needed to produce with Ced out.

Hicks almost getting thrown out off the bag at 3B in the 10th inning was about the dumbest thing I’ve seen a player do this season. A poor throw and attempt at a catch by Paredes kept the O’s hopes alive, but man Hicks was apparently caught sleeping.

Man it annoys me when announcers don’t do their homework. The rays announcers were talking about Gunner Henderson, and said that the Orioles ultimately feel he will remain at shortstop. That is just not true, particularly with Jackson holiday coming up within the next year.

Henderson's arm reportedly grades out much better than Holliday's, however. There might be some truth to it.

He seems like as sure a thing as anybody, but I don’t think it’s a good idea to write any AA player’s name in stone as a MLB starter. I bet they do think Gunnar is capable of staying at SS, even if he ultimately doesn’t.

[JoyinMudville]

So, what did happen to Tampa Bay? Quite the slide

LOL Kevin Brown talked about the proximity to the Atlantic Ocean there in St Petersburg a couple innings ago as they showed pictures of boats in Tampa Bay at the mouth of the Gulf of Mexico. 

[Hooded Viper]

I feel like this is a let down game. They were so charged up last night and now are a little deflated.

Birds down 1. Bottom of the 4th.
