The bullpen has allowed 24 runs in the last 9 games The Orioles are letting their division championship dreams slip away with each loss The Bluejays did the Orioles a favor, beating the Rays but the Os are so tired, they just cant win.
Def need that off day . Hopefully they can squeak out these next 2 games with wins . Hit the day off and take 2 from Washington and put the division to rest
We are going to the playoffs so theres that. But I will tell you whats pissing me off. I am tired of hearing about how everyone is tired. Its offensive to me. They arent doing landscaping or roofing or factory work etc. Starting pitchers throw 100 times or less over the course of 2-3 hours. Its a bad excuse but if its not then they need to look into the nutrition/strength/conditioning. And Brandon Hyde, as much as I like him, continues to push this narrative. And he should not be doing that. These are big boys and grown ass men who get paid alot of money to do this job. Tired is no excuse and I dont want to hear it anymore.
It’s a valid excuse . The arms and legs need a rest . Are they doing manual labor . No . But they are using different muscles everyday , and they need a break , just like manual labor . ESP the shoulder , it’s not ment to throw over handed . And for some reason , guys just don’t bounce back like they did in the 60-70s . Idk if it’s actually working out or what . lol . But they do need a break , esp when every other team is getting one
@sgrafx it’s just the 23 games in 24 days . Almost all teams have 3-4 days off in September . Os got a real short hand of the stick this season . Get 2-3 bad starts by pitching and your pen is taxed so early . ESP if they even struggle 1 game . It’s just a bad combination at the wrong time of the year . Hopefully Monday’s rest will help
