Leading Off
 
After a week-long absence, the BEV boys return to reflect on the games since the All Star break. Yeah, that might be as ugly as it sounds.
Things looked bad against the Cubs. Things looked good against the Rangers. Things looked bad against the Astros. The Orioles are running out of time if they’re going to be not terrible.
Here’s hoping for not terrible!
 
The Medical Wing

Yaaaaawn. Really not a whole lot going on here.

Respected projection systems have said for years Os were likely bad. Now it's like "omg what happened to the team?" like something changed

This is a thrilling last hurrah for this group. As the O's have shown over the years, it doesn't have to make sense. You just have to win.

Around the Bases: Make It Stop Edition

The Orioles went .500 in their ten-game home stand. Good enough? Not good enough? Meh? The Birds are running out of time if they want to overcome their early-season struggles. For a look at what happened this week, we go Around the Bases:
First Base: Starting Pitching Implosion
Second Base: Jonathan Schoop is out of his mind good right now.
Third Base: Makeshift Orioles Radio Network lineup
Home Plate: Winter is coming.
Time to Change

The winds of change are in the air.
