Do you hear that folks?
That is the sound of the Baltimore Orioles making some god damn noise!
This team is as hot as hot can be right now.
They’re playing some of the best baseball in the league and their record shows it.
11 games over .500 and only 3.5 back of the historically hot Tampa Bay Rays.
They’re also 10-0 in series opening games.
What a month for the Birds.
You just play who you play.
Team is cruising right now.
This team can hit.
Just flat out rake.
They’re never out of a game, look no further than last night.
Ryan Yarbrough was cruising through 4.
Had a perfect game, struck out 5 of the first 6, Orioles couldn’t do a thing.
This team fucking mashes.
The pitching is holding up decently as well.
It’s the weak link of this team, no doubt about it.
But the guys are starting to come around and find their form.
Grayson Rodriguez is the real deal.
And the bullpen, I mean it’s just sexual.
They have a bunch of god damn animals chained up in there just waiting to be let out.
Bryan Baker is the best reliever you haven’t heard of but you should start paying attention.
Not only is he a lights out reliever, he’s a HUGE Misifts fan.
He’s also got a tinnnnnnnnny ERA at 1.76 and has 22 Ks in 15 1/3rd innings.
And he’ll let you know about it.
The Baker bounce, the moonwalk, the 3 to the dome, doesn’t matter.
He’s become a weapon out of the pen.
He’s become one of the most dominant set up guys in baseball the last few weeks.
He’s such a weapon.
Faced 37 batters, retired 35.
Other guys like Mike Baumann and Danny Coulombe have been fantastic too.
And I haven’t even talked about Adley Rutschman!
Insane that I’ve gone this far without mentioning him.
He’s the best catcher in baseball.
See ya in Seattle for the All Star Game.
Also, the Orioles are 87-64 since calling him up last May.
Literally the definition of MVP.
There is a reason he was ranked as the #1 Yankees prospect in 2016 over Aaron Judge.
If there is one part of the team that is slacking it’s the defense.
They were fantastic last year and have not been great so far this year.
But we did get the catch of the year so far from Cedric Mullins last night.
Not only is his bat coming alive again, but the defense is still top notch.
I can’t believe that he made this catch.
It’s unbelievable that he was able to run it down.
So much ground to cover and he almost went face first through the wall.
Incredible play by Mullins in the middle of that Orioles rally.
This isn’t a fluke.
This team is good.
Are they as good as this pace?
No way, no one is.
But they are really good and will be making the playoffs.
It’s incredible what the team has done so far and they’re just getting started.
May will be tough schedule wise but they’re up for the task.
What is better than that?
This isn’t a fluke, they are just good.
Really, really good.
Been trying to tell you guys that, get with the program.
