This Week on the Twitters
Solid night for the Orioles, of course, but also the Nationals' grounds crew because they didn't have to use a tarp— Matt Kremnitzer (@mattkremnitzer) September 14, 2022
As the Orioles approach a record turnaround, Brandon Hyde’s players believe it makes him the obvious choice for American League Manager of the Year.“There isn’t anybody that’s more deserving for that award than Hyder.” https://t.co/EnvuQ1PlZj— Nathan Ruiz (@NathanSRuiz) September 15, 2022

Around the Bases
We go Around the Bases to review this week in Orioles Baseball:
First Base: Wild Card Watch
We provide an update on the Orioles’ Wild Card prospects… with a bit of editorialization.
Second Base: 5th Starter
Austin Voth made an appearance in the bullpen this week, which makes us wonder if the rotation is in flux, when it comes to the fifth starter. The O’s have their best three (Lyles, Bradish, Kremer) lined up for the Toronto series. But… do they have any other options for the fifth starter? And might that person own a gas can?
Third Base: Mortal Traits
Adley Rutschman is human, after all. Just ask left-handed pitchers. We talk about whether this is something to lose sleep over, or whether this will round out in the end.
We expand the conversation to cover Cedric Mullins, and his recent struggles against left handed pitching. After switching away from being a switch hitter, and regressing from an all-world career year, what is going on with him and lefties? And will it ever get better?
Home Plate: O’s Media Notes
Last week, Jake whined about the ALL NEW MASN APP. But have you heard us whine about the radio? What about AppleTV?
The media landscape is changing. Who will adapt better: the Orioles, or their fans?
Are You Ready for Some Football (Talk)?
The Baltimore Ravens had our full attention this week,
