Actually, pigeon is less tougher than oriole, but you have to
marinate it a good twelve hours before cooking.

O's score a lot but their pitching isn't holding up their end, mostly because of multiple guys on the IL
Trevor Rogers was their big deadline pickup as they attempt to remedy that issue.

Rogers can be nasty and is much better than his 2-11 record.

Nastier than Steve J. Rogers? I don't think so.

Orioles lead MLB in HRs (even with Camden Yards no longer being the HR paradise it's been since its inception), are 3rd in RS/G,
2nd in OPS and tops in OPS+, and, unlike the Yanx who lead in OPS, their's is spread around more evenly.
So that's a pretty tough two thru six in their lineup:
Rutschman (118 OPS+), Henderson (167), Santander (136), Mountcastle (110), Jimenez (154 tho in limited playing time)
and then there's Jackson Holliday batting 9th with a mere 624 OPS but 869 in 67 PA since his recall.

And yet they're under .500 since July 8th [16 - 19]

I like that the Orioles kept this logo.



I'm glad that the O's didn't "angry up" the logo, as is the modern trend. I like those old 50s and 60s friendlyish less-threatening looking logos.

I miss these, too:

btw, the name of the Baltimore CF is Colton Cowser, not Cowtipper as the lineup above suggests.
That would indeed be a tough handle to live down.
