One difference I noticed last night is that Baltimore went with a focus on American born players vs our focus on Latin America players. Obviously not 100% with either team, but it wasn't hard to notice the difference.Boiling Denim said:
This one hurts extra bad because Baltimore pilfered our FO and copy pasted our rebuild so we're just watching the younger better version of ourselves kicking our butts up and down the field

Hunter charged with 7 earned tonight
season ERA at 4.87
no bueno

Today just makes yesterday suck that much worse. Never expected to sweep the Orioles, but damn...
Phil is great at letting inherited runners score
Racing toward the WC spot if even that. We are just bad right now. Not good.
Imagine if we had this Baltimore coach
Why doesn't Urquidy get another shot at starting?

Needs some Maldy fixin'
Amazing that somehow after tonight we will still lead the division despite having the worst manager in the history of professional baseball
He cannot be worse than Brown or Javieragdaddy04 said:

Don't tell the manager.
Because he doesn't listen anyway.
AL W might very well go 0-fer in the postseason.

For exactly one more night.

Dont disagree but do we have the salary bandwidth to add a big arm?
You don't need a cy young guy but a solid #3 starter would go a long way. Jordan Montgomery, Eduardo Rodriguez, or Michael Wacha come to mind as free agents

Maybe the Verlander comparisons were a bit premature
Rangers take the lead
Prepare for a 0.5 game lead after the end of tonight

This is why you can't lose series to to 100 loss teams. This is why you shouldn't tinker with the lineup and play multiple minor leaguers during the first half of the season. This is why you don't spend the most vital part of the offseason without a real GM.
Tucker reaches on E-4
Cintron ejected for arguing balls & strikes
where's Dusty?

Yainer gunna bring us back this inning.
Cintron does all of Dusty's dirty work lol

Alex tossed. At least someone in the dugout has a little fire.
Oh hey look, someone with a pulse in our dugout

Cut him some slack. He probably had the Luann platter at lubys for 4 PM dinner while catching some wheel of fortune re-runs. That makes a man awful sleepy
No way to know definitively, but this organizational misalignment noted above seems to reflect what we are seeing on the field.texasaggie2015 said:
I wanted to get some clarification before posting this and I hinted at this last night. I don't want to go into too much detail on a public message board but I'll say the tension between Dusty Baker and the front office has grown tremendously over the last month or so from what I'm told. And there's at least a couple players who aren't happy with Dusty as well. Veteran guys.
I don't think there's a scenario where Dusty returns. If they were to re-sign him, there's a couple key pieces of this team who would want out.
It's a sad situation. And completely avoidable.
Chas won't face the lefty because Brandon Hyde has two brain cells to rub together and isn't coasting off longevity and luck, unlike his counterpart.

I will choose to enjoy it before it's gone.
Jays won, Rangers leading, Mariners leading in Oakland with Castillo. Been a fun, though brief, ride.
Brief?
