So you're bringing Kuechel back on 3 days rest to pitch game 4?

If he pitches game 1, there's only 3 days until game 4. Game 2, off day, game 3.

Not agreeing or disagreeing...just saying.

Depends. Are we down 1-2? If so, yep.

Also, huge AB by Tuve.

Crane hinting pretty heavily here that another owner nixed a deal

Hearing Crane talk now on TV, he's making it pretty obvious that Oriole's owner nixed a Britton deal.

Crane all but confirming the owner veto on the other end of the trade.

I actually thing that is pretty legit for him to get Luhnow's back publicly like this.

Because the owner can go there. The GM can't. Shows the Orioles were likely astronomical in their asking price.

I think Chris Carter might actually have more personality than Jim Crane

It was a known issue in trying to deal for Britton. I think we made a mistake trying to hit the home run when we should have pursued Wilson or someone else

That being said, it's nice to see Crane going to bat for Luhnow

But I think we were pursuing Wilson, the timing of how this stuff works can get screwed up if you think you have a deal and then stop pursuing someone based on that info.

Trade deadline is basically baseball version of national signing day. Fan and media interest totally out of scale with its importance


Idk about you but getting a potential ace or #2 for the next 2.5 years is pretty damn important. Yanks did it today.

Ace, when healthy. We are dealing with 2 of those already.

I'm OK not going for a starter. I was rooting for a reliable lefty like Hand. He is a workhorse reliever who gets guys out and has control through 2020.Hand's consistency this year would have provided some much needed relief. Britton would have been high risk/high reward. Apparently both of those options were tough gets due to the asking price/opposite GM.

He is not hinting, just straight up said on the radio that deal got vetoed.
