I think you just go with whoever is hot. Valencia is the guy now.

It's the middle of June. Of course Reimold is on the DL. And playing golf and going to prayer meetings with Brian Roberts.


Dickerson is really good.  Coming into his own.

I like Pearce too.

Isn't Reimold still on the DL?

"I go with"?  I watch every single game.  And have for the last 30 years.  I definitely do not go with whomever is hot at the time.  I enjoy watching the players succeed!

By "you", I meant Buck Showalter. Meaning he should play the hot bat. Which a couple of weeks ago was Dickerson and right now appears to be Valencia. Maybe at some point it will be Pearce.

 I don't think any of those three will pull a McClouth out of closet and be anything more than a journeyman. Not that McClouth has completely advance himself beyond journeyman status either.

I totally got sucked into registering for the Orioles Casey Cares 5K in August.  Home plate finishing photo?  Yes, please.

Fun Fact Time!

Manny Machado leads the majors with 32 doubles and Chris Davis leads with 23 homers. According to STATS, the only time in the modern era of baseball that teammates finished outright leaders in doubles and homers in the same season was 1927, when Lou Gehrig had 52 doubles and Babe Ruth hit 60 homers.

Verlander: 5 IP, 7 H, 5 R, 5 ER, 4 BB, 5 K, 102 P, 42 B, 60S.

They don't play the game on paper.

No they don't.  And Zach Britton came out with something to prove! 

Has anyone been to Comerica?  We are going there over labor day.  Also hitting up the Orioles series in Cleveland (after Cedar Point).

2 out of 3 versus the mighty Tigers. The Orioles keep on stomping teams down.

Machado has played every inning since the Orioles called him up from Double-A Bowie, and he's hit second in every game this season. You may have noticed that the results are favorable. The experiment thus far has been a rousing success.

I hope this doesn't mean the O's are screwed.
