Don't think it rained in NYC after 3 PM today.

What a shitty decision

They are just looking out for the safety of the fans.....

Those adjustments for Chris Davis sure are working wonders.

1 total Orioles run scored in the 3 games versus the Marlins.

The offense completely disappeared top to bottom.

The O's starters have allowed 4 total earned runs in the last 5 starts.....they have 1 win combined.

Frustrating to get excellent starting pitching and keep losing games 1-0 and 2-1.

I'm honestly surprised that they won five games as quickly as they did. I was figuring maybe mid August is when they'd get there. It definitely sucks that when you get good performances from your pitchers that your batters don't have your back. I don't know what more anyone needs to see from Chris Davis at this point to determine he's a huge waste of financial resources. I really hope that they can come to some sort of buyout in the offseason so we can finally move on from him and put someone else there at first and have someone new on the roster.

That -27 OPS+

Crazy to think this guy once had seasons with a 168 OPS+ and 147 OPS+.

I see why they did it, Miggy needs ABs, and he's not going to get them with any regularity with this team.

Crazy depth. Clint Frazier and Andujar would be starting and hitting the middle of the order for a ton of other clubs, they can't even crack the Yankee line-up.

Hell, Chad Green would probably be closing for 20 other clubs right now.

A nice problem to have......

I can't get tweets on my work computer and was scared that the Yankees had traded Frazier, Andujar, and Green for Miggy Cabrera.

Hey that K% is at a career low right now

Hey that K% is at a career low right now

I’m wondering if the Mendoza line should be lowered and be called the Davis line.

They’re trying to let him hit it.....Like t-ball

Horace Clarke, always hustled, gave his all.....R.I.P.

Damn. RIP. Had the misfortune of playing for some truly bad Yankee teams.

Going to need Gary and Gleyber to start hitting at somepoint.

I've accepted that this is who Sanchez is. He'll get hot as a pistol for a few weeks here and there, but 60-70% of the season he's almost an automatic out.

Gleyber's another story-he's much better than what he's shown so far, and he will come out of it eventually.

At least Tanaka looked like himself. Nice to know they've got at least one other starter besides Cole who can give them 5 innings.

And it starts

The ORIOLES make no sense whatsoever

Unless the (7-2) Marlins are actually good that is...
