Dusty looks like he's in a memory care unit.

This goes back to wtf did Dusty put Maton in when your 4 best relievers haven't pitched in 4 days?


So you can use some tomorrow without going back to back.

If Maton can't be trusted with a 4 run lead in the 7th then he probably shouldn't be on the roster.

Did they just say lefties hit .053 against this guy while righties bat .318?

So yeah...Let's keep JJ up there and not PH him for a righty.

Sounds about right.
well we'd lose the DH in a tie game in the 8th inning. I doubt Dusty wanted to risk that


That really a rule? You can't PH a DH?

What happens? The pitcher has to bat in the spot next?

Is that still a rule? Or maybe injury allows a switch without penalty?
my mistake... I guess the rule changed this year. You can pinch hit for the DH and the pinch hitter becomes the DH going forward.
to be fair to you, Dusty probably forgot it, too

Pinch hit for DH is OK. Taking the guy who is at DH and putting him in a defensive position does make you forfeit the DH

in previous years yes, but now with a rule change the pinch hitter just stays in as the DH

in further defense of Maton, he was facing Walsh, Rengifo and Stassi. 2 lefties, which Maton has better numbers vs than righties, and a Mendoza line-hitting catcher. He just needs to make a better throw to 2B and we're fine.

but he didn't, and we aren't

This is a bit contradictory of an earlier post I made bemoaning bringing in Maton at all...but I posted his road splits. The team needs to figure out why he sucks away from MMP

AT&T's zone was wrong. It was a ball.

However Ball 1 was in the zone. Same for ball 1 vs Diaz.

Shoutout to the Orioles for reaching 44-44 tonight. The last time they were at or above .500 in July or later of a season (minus the 2020 COVID campaign) was 2017.

Throwing out the 2020 season, their records since 2018 are:


2018: 47-115
2019: 54-108
2021: 52-110
2022: 44-44

Game ball to Taylor Ward for taking his sweet ass time fielding that ball and making first-to-third no contest for Altuve.
