holliday...it would be so nice (a 2024 orioles)

We don't deserve Albert Suarez

Anyway I love watching this rendition of this team, delighted that Hays is hitting again (after an insanely godawful start he was normal-bad in May and has OPS 1.471 in 21 PA in June) but y'know it kind of seems like the Yankees are never gonna lose again

bradish. ucl. nuts.

...but last night was one of the craziest games i've watched in a while. definite playoff feel.

god, perez, though. just not a guy i trust in high leverage situations.

you know who’s good is gunnar henderson

I’ve begun to suspect as much

sucks that half their pitchers are injured but today is pretty cool

just delightful.

lmao what is this game?

y'know it kind of seems like the Yankees are never gonna lose again

it was cool how the Yankees lost and then lost again

Can't figure out whether this thread title does or doesn't suit the way the 2024 season has played out so far

Henderson just his his 28th in the Orioles' 96th game...He'd have to pick up the pace a bit, but he has a decent shot at 50. I think A-Rod's the only SS to have done that.

it was cool when this team was good

lmao

big win

team of destiny

(destiny = shitty yankee defense)

So what package do you offer for Skubal? And who's untouchable?

so, they've added eflin, Rogers, Dominguez and pache, cleared hays, norby, stowers...I imagine Holliday's on his way back up? all three pitchers controllable beyond this year isn't awful.

that was a hell of a price tag for a SP who i would describe as average when not being unpredictable.

Yeah, I give current management a decent amount of benefit of the doubt but I don't see how to make this one look like a good deal for us -- that's two ready-to-go position players with years of control, you need to get more for that

I imagine Holliday's on his way back up?

aye cap'n

Just when I was getting ready for the Terrin Vavra era

Grand slam for Holliday! trust the process, friends.

Well, I say, that nice young fella’s got a bit of pop in his swing

...and westburg to DL w/ a broken hand. commence mayo watch?

We are proud to have played our small part in the Jackson Holliday story.

He was my first round pick in our league and I was committed to keeping him into next season no matter what - so this brings me much joy

holliday looks much more comfortable at the plate this time around.

Great AB just now, holding on to draw a walk with the Orioles up 4 in the 9th, professional hitting

Boy we've kind of just transmuted into a mediocre baseball team for the moment, huh

the moment goes on
