Strap up for an early bullpen call

Why didn't Montoyo adjust his lineup to the fact that the Orioles are now starting a righty rather than the lefty they had initially? Tellez and McGwire should obviously be playing.

Probably, but we really ought to be able to field a team consisting of blindfolded longshoremen named Gerry and they should score 4 runs in 5 IP off Eshelman. He's the Josh Towers of TJ Zeuchs.

I don't know, our lineup looks pretty terrible right now 4 through 9 (Grichuk is in one of his month long slumps). Panik is our DH.

2020 was his "good" year.

Honestly, I'm down for getting no-hit by him. That would be way more memorable than a 5-4 win in June.

You may get your wish, it would seem. That back half of the lineup certainly won't break it up.

That was as bad as he's looked in a couple of months. Was lucky to even get that far.

Wonder if it’s related to the ball?

Not sure what you mean. Did they change the ball in the last week?

Don't think he's been an increased spin rate guy IIRC.

He’s not. But a better grip on the ball helps your command, as well.
