Adam Wainwright is still pitching!? I didn't even realize that. *Checks his numbers* Correction Adam Wainwright appears to throw batting practice these days.

Kind of fun to imagine how much better the outlook could get if Means somehow manages to come back firing on all cylinders like he's pitched in the past.

Hope Means just goes out there relaxed and has fun. Just do what he can do and not try to overthink things. Keep us in the game, we should score plenty tonight.

The 2023 Orioles have a legitimate chance to match three Oriole teams in terms of 100 or more wins, though not necessarily overall record. The 1980 squad (100-62), 1979 (102-57), and 1971 (101-57). Catching the 1969 (109-53), and 1970 (108-54) teams is likely out of reach.

I am not worried about the win total as long it is one more than the Rays.
It really is amazing how much better the Orioles and the Rays are then the other big money AL East franchises.

Or equal to the Rays, as long as the O's win the season series.

I am really looking forward to seeing Means tonight. Hopefully he does okay. The rotation needs a boost.

I think we need to be a little patient with Means tonight. I am hoping for 5 innings and hope he keeps us in the game.

That would be great and better than we got last night from Kreme ball.

Kremer did not have it last night. That said, he did not get pounded either. There was a lot of soft crap that did damage. I think the Cardinals lineup is still pretty good. I guess their pitching is bad, because the lineup is not. It will be a challenge for Means.

I really want 100 wins. Cant believe its been 43 years. Its a relatively rare thing. 116 times over MLB history. Only 5 times in Os history.
It's been 40since we won a Series. It is fun to at least think we have a chance to get there.

I don't know why it is such a big deal to me but I have really missed the O-R-I-O-L-E-S chant. Brought tears to my eyes to hear it the other night.

O's starters have had poor outings the last 3 games. Like to see Means stop this trend.

No one in the bullpen has pitched both of the last two games, but Irwin threw 39 pitches on Sunday, and yesterday Hall threw 27 and Fuji threw 25. Webb (18), Coulombe (9), and Lopez (8) also pitched yesterday. Cano and Perez should be fresh.
