    My 2 best friends, who I grew up with, are hardcore Oriole fans. They are actually talking ****. I need Framber to be on today.

    Think Abreu panicked. Altuve was on 2b waiting for his throw.

    You didn't answer my question, when is the last time he had a blowup game. He's been very good this year minus a few outings at the beginning of the year. Otherwise he's been pretty close to the same other than those few outings.

    The reason the team has been so good over the last couple of months is Hunter/Spencer/Blanco have been giving the team 6 innings of one or two run baseball and Hader/Abreu/Scott and to a lesser degree Pressly have been lockdown guys.

    To win a WS Pressly needs to get healthy and get back to pitching like he has the last few years. That would make for a 2022 lockdown bullpen and make this team the favorite to win another WS as long as Espada doesn't keep screwing up one run games.

    Man the Giants manager is even worse than Espada, He left Rodgers in for 6 batters which all got hits and allowed the Mariners to tie the game. 6 hits in a row, at some point a light should've come on and realized that Rodgers didn't have it that day.

    If it was a tie game it’s the right decision, but it wasn’t. Before the season started it was just get to the 7th and the big 3 will finish it. They finish it too often for an L.

    Lmao they can’t even win the season series against us. They aren’t going anywhere in the playoffs either with their pitching. Tell them to shut the **** up.

    I am. It’s hilarious. They are going the “regular season means nothing” route. Dont worry, I’m having fun with these chumps. They got nothing. They are desperately reaching into the “your team cheats” bag now. I got this.

    What’s even dumber is Melvin waited until they tied the game and still had two on base with no outs to then bring in their closer. He got them out of the jam and then also pitched the 9th inning. Dude struck out 5 out of the 6 batters he faced.

    If you’re going to be willing to use your closer for 2 innings, what the **** are you doing waiting until it’s a tie game to bring him in there? Straight up wasted him in a game you ended up losing. Absolutely stupid.

    Sports seem silly when you’re on shrooms. Think about that, kids.

    Once they bring up the cheating stuff, it’s pretty much a guarantee they’ve lost the argument.

    It’s a year round thing.

    Astros vs Orioles
    UH vs Terps
    Texans vs Ravens (this one sucks)
    Rockets vs Wizards (this one is silly)
