I find funny what your 3rd grader finds funny... Old School Chicano/New Deal Dem Teacher & Site Rep for my #CFT/#AFT local Cal ‘83 #calgorithm #gobears #bearterritory #Orioles #birdland #U2, Dad of a 🏳️‍⚧️ kid, Bostie owner I hang near the LA/OC Borderlands

It figures that after struggling all season to find himself, GrayRod manages to toss his best effort of the season tonight against the Orioles: 7 IP / 3 H / 2 ER / 6 Ks, 1 walk. Thankful for the Oriole win, of course, but this team has too often become a salve for struggling hurlers they face.

Orioles fans should be mad at their team but they should be less mad about trading Adley than wasting the years he was there so that they *need* to trade Adley

Fair play, it's a really strong haul back for Rutschman that. Just hard to get excited by high ranking prospects though, as we had the most of these in all of baseball for the last several years & it's got us nowhere. 🤷‍♂️

Interesting choice for the Orioles of Azocar beyond Eyanson. I think that it's signalling that whatever window Enrique Bradfield Jr. may have had, has either closed, or is about to close... But why Narvaez? Is Creed Willems ever going to get a look?

This team has become so frustrating this that seeing Adley dealt hits me less than it seems to have hit others in the fanbase. That said, if I think of deals with the Dodgers ending badly (Machado/Murray), I have fond memories of trading Mike Boddicker to Boston and getting back Brady Anderson.

Orioles trade Adley Rutschman to Red Sox in a stunning about-face

Rutschman’s arrival in the majors in 2022 coincided with an upswing for the Orioles, and they went on to win 192 games in 2023 and 2024. But Baltimore has failed to build on that.

I have never been this disgusted with an Orioles team. And knowing that incompetent jackass is preparing to have yet another sell off tomorrow makes me ill.

Ah, for crying out loud, the Orioles/Phils are into the 6th inning now, so it’s official. Call the game. Geez, this is the first Oriole team I’ve ever followed that played with less urgency than this one.

It’s depressing for the Oriole fanbase, but also sad that the team never got it through their thick skulls that if they knew they needed to play better, this shit ain’t it. These players are only fooling themselves at this point…
