#Orioles & #Eagles fan. Once upon a time I wrote things about the Orioles more in-depth than a tweet. But this is all you get now.

Been a couple weeks since the last scheduled off-day for the Birds. Time to take a look at WAR leaders on the Orioles through 44 games. Both bWAR and fWAR provided below 👇

@JL4486 @ThirstRoundPick Oh yeah. If I remember correctly I think he was in the top 5 in all of baseball last year in average amount of pitches per plate appearance. And I’d have to imagine he’s near the top (if not at the very top) so far this year.

@DillonTAtkinson @ThirstRoundPick Doesn’t bother me if it’s the first pitch. But last night first pitch center. Second pitch same spot. I’d want him to swing there. But i do appreciate his patience. He does work counts

@JL4486 @ThirstRoundPick Yep for sure. He’s also been much more aggressive at the plate. Has been between 9-14% walk rate in his career before this year. So far this year? Just 6.3%. But it’s ok since Taylor Ward walks enough for the rest of the team 😂

@DillonTAtkinson @ThirstRoundPick I said this earlier in the year: he really compacted the swing. It’s not as long, more concise. I noticed it early. Earlier to get the bat to the ball

Beautiful win. Last night is forgiven. As long as it’s a series win, I’m good. Now please start winning more series.

@ASM_Strickland Agreed but that’s a little bit easier to swing when you don’t already have a set DH or you currently have an underperforming DH. Right now Basallo is holding that down and hitting very well. I wouldn’t want to take ABs away from him and tough to hold a DH-only on a limited bench

@DillonTAtkinson He could DH this year and get the surgery in the offseason and be ready to throw early next season. Machado did this 2 years ago in SD. It’s not the same recovery when you’re not a pitcher

Two-hit game for Blaze out of the 9-hole. Hell yeah.

Way to work through it, Bradish. Would be nice to get one more frame out of him. These past two starts have been the Kyle Bradish we’ve been looking for.

First day without Nicole Sherry and we’re already getting bad hops in the infield. SMH. Nice adjustment by Alonso though to snag that.

Basallo is a foundational piece and you don't piss that away sitting on a beach due to LHH/LHP. Why do they continue to pull him as he needs at bats against pitchers like Fried? Throw the F-ing analytic book in the trash and let the one of the only hot hitters play everyday.
