Encouraging to see Bautista showing flashes of defensive skills and able to throw, with his two OF assists. With the shortage of OF on this roster, he'll need to play there a lot. Too bad about his offense, stranding 8 baserunners, including a bases-loaded failure and a critical inning-ending DP. When you make six outs (out of 33 in the whole game), you've not earned your $100K for the day's work.

Flashes of familiar BJs, what with oh for 8 RISP, and receiving copious walks, yet managing so few runs.

And without Osuna as a closer, hope that Grilli's floater will not be a habit where he becomes Gopher Ball Grilli. Good news may be that Goins was saved from certain cut when Upton was released. Time to put him in the bullpen, as he might be needed again soon.

Baltimore's revenge over 2016 wild-card game?
