He's a strikeout machine tonight.

Baltimore starter Tyler Wells (1-3), who allowed three runs on eight hits, including a home run to Miguel Cabrera, said he doesn’t put extra pressure on himself when the offense isn’t producing many runs.

“For me, not really. I gotta focus on my job,” Wells said. “I believe in our hitters. They’ve done a lot of really good things as of late. The last three games haven’t really told the bigger picture, I guess is a better way to put it. But I have no doubt that they’re going to come around.”

Wells may not have had his best day, but he still made it through another start without walking anyone. It was Wells' 5th straight start without a walk.

Need bodies. Adley has some reps at 1st now.

Here's a scary thought. Gunnar's everything they said he was, plus 11 stolen bases so far. he probably couldn't under-hit all our Mendozas, two of whom are now disabled to some extent to boot.

Anybody else resist the urge upon hearing of Odor's sinus problem, to tell him to suck it up? I did. Until now. Might not be my final dad joke of the weekend.

What difference is a few more starts for Norfolk going to make, I wonder. Who would you rather see in the rotation, Watkins or Grayson?

If you have to lose, that's the way to do it.
