Interesting look at the schedule…
Yes we have a difficult schedule upcoming, but…
NYY likely will not go “all out” knowing they have an upcoming wild card round.
Could that help us take 2 of 3?
If we take 3 of 4, Boston no longer is a shoe in (would be tough to do)…

Game 162 could be very interesting 👀 this year if the standings change just a little. We could be in for a rough night…..rewind to Robert Andino breaking the Red Sox ❤️

While I’m certainly shocked and confused, I greatly appreciate the willingness to add payroll for a player that may provide some upside (or be on the IL the entire month).
Props to @DM_Rubenstein for signing off.

Only down 3-1 but this is the crap I can’t stand from the Orioles. I’m tired of trotting out pitchers way past their prime and a team that can’t field.

Not sure if he has an option left, but if he doesn’t he’s likely gone Tuesday (doubtful Basallo gets activated before then. No room on the roster for 3 catchers without Adley.
Craig Albernaz on Yohel Pozo's vibes:
"Pozo's been outstanding. I mean, the first thing is, he's tough. That finger can't feel good, even though it's not broken. It doesn't feel good, especially with the foul tips and the constant pounding on that finger as a catcher.
"But he has such great energy. He's engaged in the game. He loves to play. He loves to win. And even in games he's not playing, he's the same person. He's just a great teammate and a great person. We're lucky to have him."

Let’s get to 5 games over .500 before we get excited.
If a meteor crashed into Earth at this very moment and ended MLB’s season, the history books, if there were to be any, would show the 2026 Baltimore Orioles as a playoff team.
The Orioles (61-63) have sole possession of the third wild-card spot in the American League.

Andy McPhail would be proud. Grow the arms, buy the bats. Feel like we’ve gone full circle so many times.
Orioles' top 5 pitching prospects by MLB Pipeline following their trade deadline moves today:
1. RHP Anthony Eyanson (55 on 20-80 scale)
2. LHP Joseph Dzierwa (55)
3. RHP Michael Forret (50)
4. RHP Kyson Witherspoon (50)
5. LHP Boston Bateman (45)
Luis De León, Trey Gibson, Caden Hunter, Nestor German, JT Quinn, Levi Wells and Esteban Mejia all in the system as well. Baltimore's pitching pipeline is suddenly one of the organization's biggest strengths.

Interesting take on the state of the @Orioles farm system. I 👏 @MElias when he arrived and built us to #1. However, I don’t give a 💩 about having the best farm system. I want to be a World Series contender regularly and feel that just making the playoffs isn’t good enough.

Hey @MElias, I thought you were “buying and selling”. Don’t you tell me Franklin was the buy.
@DM_Rubenstein please fire him. He’s a liar!

Why are we not hearing a T. Rogers extension or him being dealt? Why keep him if we will lose him in free agency.
And who’s the right handed bat to play the outfield. Please tell me O’Neill won’t play a bunch more.

Very thankful I didn’t renew my birdland membership and give the @Orioles, @DM_Rubenstein or @MElias any of my money.
This is a downright failure. Someone needs held accountable!

Interesting to see if Reyes or the guys acquired last deadline can be packaged for long term answers.
Didn’t think the @Orioles, @MElias , and @DM_Rubenstein would be this active already.
Heard #MNTwins are sending Jhomnardo Reyes to Baltimore in exchange for Dean Kremer.

But we must buy at the deadline too….
Need 2-3 bullpen arms for the future, another catcher (if Adley is moved), and another legit SP (and one for next year if we lose Rogers)
Otherwise, _______ @MElias
