August, the Orioles, and the Trade Deadline all arrive: BAL @ TEX 8/1-3

[WastinSomeTime]

Perez continuing to do his thing but our offense has been garbage in this series.

 

[Duane1952]

Where is the offense today.....?

In 55 or so innings, this guy has an ERA in the Spencer Howard range. What gives

BTW, cant see the game

Not missing much. Rangers have 3 hits against a pitcher that started the game with a 6.82 era.

 

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

what can we say, Woody is committed

I just hope the next manager isn't given such broad and free reign over the players.

JD to AAA mgr: Bring up Profar he is ready to shine

JD to Wash. : Here’s Profar he will jumpstart and invigorate our offense

Wash to JD: Sure thanks I will surely for him in some

JD to self :? - Well Wash is the baseball guy so I guess I will give him the benefit of the doubt

Wash to self : I will play when he is @&$@* ready. I am the skipper here and I’m sure not sitting Michael

Media narrative - with all the metrics the FO is telling the manager want to do

Wash in his mind- Dont he know that the way baseball go
Ain’t no white shirt ivy leaguer going to tell me who to play. Me and Michael run this clubhouse. Where are my cigs. Let’s play some ball and grind is out a win

Joking of course but kind of

Profar was 7/10 yesterday with 2 runs and 3 RBI in the doubleheader

Someone once said Profar would have a better career than Odor. Lol

The most impressive part about Profar's 2013 is that he was called up in late May and managed to get over 300 plate appearances that year despite being relegated to the bench the entire time by Wash.

Small ball raises it's head. nice bunt by Smith

 

[armadillooutlaw]

Perez has looked fantastic today. I'm to the point of saying "just re-sign that guy".

 

[Kelleyman]

That was a buzzkill

pitch count was a little high, but I've been convinced for awhile that he's turned a career corner. definitely on board with signing him.

Yes quite impressive. I guess to me he sat way too much especially at first.

to me it looks like he played regularly from the jump.

Then a DP to wipe it out.....

There's our old friend Chirinos.....

His ability to get out of a jam is impressive. He's come a long way as far as mental toughness.

That he has

Moore with 18 pitches and 5 strikes.....probably getting a bit worn down himself

 

[saddles]

Josh Smith has went 7 for his last 19 with 5 walks. Glad to see he is making some adjustments.
