John Means could be the X-factor that makes this season truly special

The Bullpen is a bit banged up and tired, but getting a pitcher everyone forgot about back just in time for the playoffs....who knows

The Orioles Bullpen really needed that game today from Means.

Definitely think that Means, Bradish and GRod should be in the post season rotation. If there’s a fourth, that is a debatable slot. Also wondering if Bautista will be listed on the postseason roster at any point. If so, that’ll be a massive boost.

Yeah I think its a lock at this point you all roll with those 3 first.

Then I would probably go Gibson as the vet for the 4th spot on a very quick leash. Flaherty has simply been dogshit.

And I think they will go Gibson over Kremer due to experience and some better predictive measures.

I figure if Flaherty is on the postseason roster, he’s going to be a long reliever. No way should they trust him in an important game to start right now.
Agree with Gibson as that’s who I’d probably go with right now as well. I figure Wells might be a part of the bullpen as well. Curious to see if they leave Fujinami in the bullpen since he’s been very erratic.

RIP Brooks Robinson…..

RIP Brooks Robinson…..

No. shit. Not many Orioles players I like, but he has been a huge favorite in my family since my dad was a kid. My grandfather used to tell all the kids in the neighborhood that he wasn't related to Brooks, but Frank was his bother. My cousin's son is named Brooks Robinson after him.

Rest in Peace Brooksy.

He played before I was alive, but he was always available at various fan fests and old timer events...very nice guy and Orioles legend.

Hell of a start to end the season for Cole.

Way to waste great seasons from Cole & Judge

Big prayers for Tim Wakefield

 

[Carnzo]

Wake is a great guy.
Hopefully he can beat it

Schilling leaking it without anyone's permission sounds about par for the course.

Get well, Tim.

Curt "Look at me!" Schilling in full effect.

Catherine Varitek's tweet was 100% appropriate

Schilling needs to be hit by a full speed bus.

Said bus then needs to back over him. Then speed off for one last pass over.

You would think not getting in the Hall because you’re a perpetual asshole would be a wake up call.





Nope.

Maybe a little much.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Well yeah, technically the first hit would do the trick. Next two are more of a statement.

After multiple 100+ loss seasons, and nothing more than a promise to keep the faith while watching the worst team in MLB

THE ORIOLES ARE AL EAST CHAMPIONS!!!!

Almost impossible to get my mind wrapped around it.

The only down side is that I bought tickets to Friday's game. I was trying to time up the clinching night.
Camden Yards was crazy tonight.

I will be likely watching a Norfolk Tides level AAA players from the Orioles backup and 2nd tier players tomorrow night.

HELLLLLLLL YEAHHHH!!!!

Get used to it Sox/Yankees fans:

 

[chappee11]

Red Sox are 4-17 since September 5th and they just gave Cora a vote of confidence. What the fuck is happening??!
