Really, take a chill pill, people! It's a long season, going thru a rough patch. Every team does. We are a good team. . In 83, the orioles had two eight game losing steaks. And we won the WS.
Man it’s hard to sit here and not get giddy thinking about how we have almost this entire team coming back next year for sure, but we will have Bradish, Means, Bautista, Holliday, Mayo and Norby with Basallo close behind joining the team throughout the year. All we have to do is sign Burnes to a nice deal, resign Santander and O’Hearn, and if we did something incredible like picked up Mason Miller this year without trading any of the key players we have or players I mentioned here, and this is the most complete team in baseball. Can you imagine that roster? Mayo/Ohearn splitting DH with RHP/LHP. Holliday & Westburg everyday at 3B/2B respectively. Miller & Bautista in the back end. Burnes, Bradish, Means, Rodriguez off the bump. With Felix going 6 outs, and miller being 6 out capable as well, you need 5 innings of scoreless baseball from your starter and a solo homer to win a game.
It’s the way they play, strike outs, Lazy Flyouts, Popups, all when runners are on base, no rhythm, no string of timely clutch hits, and then there’s the stupid pitching
This team hasn't hit or pitched well the last 3 weeks, and that's being nice. I wouldn't start selling off prospects now. Might just be a building year where we get our young guys some major league experience and look to try and contend next year.
we shouldn't be trading any of these guys, it's an absurd idea at this point with half the mlb roster being as weak as it is, but the pitching this offseason
This team struggles bad against losing teams. I personally think they will not win in the playoffs if they make it there. You have to trade good prospects to good players in return. Figure out who to make untouchable and make some trades.
Front office need to get rid of Mullins, Hays, McCann, Mateo , Mountcastle, Akin, Irvin, Baker, Tate. They’re all liabilities, out with the old in with new talent
