I had an inkling that the Orioles were fruitlessly trying to keep up with the big boys in their division, but I doubt anyone was expecting this. They are... words can't describe it. Nearly everything has gone to shit. They are deep into the tanking sweepstakes. Remember that the Orioles were trying to compete for a playoff spot this season.
So what has caused this collapse into the basement of the league? With the powers of hindsight (and disapproval), this video will allow you to learn... something? Maybe? - Спорт
From laughingstock to AL East Champs with the best record in the AL. What a turnaround.
I don't care that they're probably going to get swept. The fact that the Orioles won 100+ games and significantly outperformed franchises like the New York Yankees, New York Mets, and San Diego Fraudres despite having far less money than those clubs is way more impressive than winning the World Series, imho.
Reminds me of a 2021 SF Giants.
As a Red Sox fan, quite happy with the Orioles’ turnaround the past few years. Hopefully they win a championship soon.
I’ve been to this 10 different ball parks and Camden has the best French fries so atleast they win something
Onion Man Nats fan. Camden Yards has better food than Nats Park so at least they have that.
Don t forget the Crab cakes
I have been to Camden yards once and citi field 8 times
@@MW53516 The half smokes are really good!
Lol
I'm pretty sure if you blindfolded my three year old niece she could make contact more often than Chris Davis right now.
DAAAMN 😂
I wouldn't bet against her doing that.
Yeah he fail off the cliff. Literally. Lol.
Wow. A legit channel commenting on a Tree video...
*Tree voice* "Impressive stuff..."
Honestly, if you give Chris Davis 20/20 vision, I still would say that your niece wins.
Well, beautiful Camden Yards finally has a team worthy of its beauty again.
Baltimore left their hopes and dreams with Britton in the bullpen in 2016
👏🏻
EXE-Edits 😢
2016 was our last shot. And I agree since then, we've become a total shithole for baseball. I'm just gonna sit back at wait for the next 20 odd years for the Orioles to get good again and for competent management to take over. Fuck you Angelos!
EXE-Edits Once Edwin hit that homerun it was over for the O's
EXE-Edits Yup
Me, an Orioles Fan:
*sigh*...Ok, I'm ready for this. Burn it all to hell...
Here we see a so called 'Orioles Fan'. Don't touch it, it is an endangered species. Jays fans be like "I thought we were shit until we have Orioles in the AL East"
Joe Hamliton what’s a Orioles fan that must be a rare creature
i am also a orioles fan
@@thefrozenone6980 What's that?
@@hoopinproductions5121 An orioles fan is an endangered species. They suffer from depression. They also have a disease called trashidous.
I’d love a Angelos family Legacy of Failure from Tree! We all deserve it. It’s a great day to be an O’s fan. Especially after that awful Ravens AFC Championship game on Sunday.
Being a Giants fan, I would add Mike Yastrzemski to the list of ex-Orioles who broke out after leaving Baltimore. He gets drafted by the Orioles in 2013, but it wasn't until he was traded to the Giants before 2019 that he gets promoted to the majors. Not only that, he hits his first MLB homer against (you guessed it) the Orioles, finishing the year with 21 home runs.
Being drafted as a pitcher to the Orioles is the equivalent of being drafted as a QB to the Cleveland Browns.
Speaking of which whose the number one prospect in the 2019 MLB Draft.
@@clipobserver 😓
Just for the record the new browns QB actually turned them into a new team which is actually somewhat good. One pitcher can't turn the orioles organisation into contenders so they aren't really equivalent
@pannoni6 i do like the baker to jarvis connection. They have some chemistry
As an O's fan. I say f*ck you.
I went to an Orioles game earlier this year and they actually won I was crying
Onion Man Same. I thought it was a mirage at first. The only other time they won.
From "Avian Flu" to postseason contenders! Orioles just clinched the playoffs today!
Further more, they clinched the AL East for the first time since 2014.
And the AL Playoffs will be going through Baltimore.
They turned it around, haven't they?
“Like Manny Machado when he gets traded to a real team.”
**Signs with San Diego Padres**
**Mediocrity intensifies**
Well he did get traded to LA
@Bub loves lunch in a bucket yea he keeps hitting players
He shoulda signed with the white sox because the white sox have won a world series (3) while the Padres have won none
@@lucasblanton5203 Just from history standpoint really?
With that contract, why bother trying anymore at all?
They should have called it the BaltiMorgue.
At least Baltimore has the Ravens.
Edwin Esposito The Ravens are straddling the line between rebuild and contend. The only thing making them look close the last two years is that the AFC is a tire fire and the North has been leading the march to the bottom. When we can sweep our division slate by showing up without a game plan and dicking around for three quarters, you know something is wrong. Remember, the Ravens scooped up that playoff spot the Bills forfieted with the Peterman "experiment" and forfieted it right back to them care of defensive ineptitude par excellence.
BeastOfMetal1989 yeah but Lamar Jackson 👀
It would fit with the city's ACTUAL nickname of "Bodymore, Murderland."
Edwin Esposito the Ravens are aging badly and have an absolute albatross of a contract named Joe Flacco. Your best case scenario is sneaking in as a wild-card team and getting creamed in the first round.
I’m a diehard orioles fan, but everything you said in this video is so true!
Owen Fay Your Orioles will have a great team in near future buddy and I am a Mariners fan lol we can’t even make the playoffs for Christ shake
@@jivangill4929 Well your comment aged well for the Orioles. The Orioles are now playoff contenders. However, the mention regarding the Mariners didn't, in a good way though. The Mariners are a winning team now and made the playoffs in 2022.
I like how you said “that game” because the first game I thought of was 30-3 against the rangers.
You wouldn't be blamed for bringing up that atrocity.
that is "that game" to me as well. Still remember articles saying how the Ravens hadn't allowed 30 points at home for many years up to that point.
Listen dude … as an O’s fan, you could hear a collective “WHAT THE FUCK” when Showalter put in Ubaldo Jimenez in the Wild Card. We knew it was over. Fast forward 8 years, it was worth the ride 😭
"He fails with runners on base, he fails with NOBODY on base." Am i the only one who died at this.
mango_666 He fails in the dugout too. The dude is a flu virus.
I feel so bad for the legend Gary Thorne having to call this crap.
Jonathan Zygmunt even Gary Thorne is tired of this team, you can hear it in his voice now
Put him back to calling NHL gms
When does Thorne's contract with the Orioles expire?
Dylan Williams It's actually depressing, when this team fails he just accepts it, and when anything good happens he still just sounds defeated.
I love Gary Thorne. Each night, I feel his pain on the radio as he broadcasts these travesties. He, like every Oriole fan, just wish the baseball Gods or Earl Weaver's spirit come and sack the Angelos family out of Eutaw Street.
Machado “wants to play for contender”
*signs with padres*
You’ll be surprised how good the Padres are going to be
Not a terrible move signing with the team whose prospects are coming up, all the talent around him will be pretty cheap during the majority of the contract.
At least it’s better than the Orioles
Hey the padres set so many records this season...
They are going farrrrrr in the future trust me
I’m a phillies fan and one of my favorite players in the league is Kirby Yates 😂
@@Hacksaw_HIM_Thuggin they were actually really good this year getting to the division series but getting swept
This video still holds up. I talked to an O’s fan in college a couple years ago who said he’s waiting for Angelos to die. There are fans, it’s just they no longer care.
@Fries They did, but they need to be willing to open up their pockets if they want to win.
Chris Davis is just too good right now
Fuck you Davis
Info Have you not been watching the video?
I think Chris Davis is making Bobby Bonilla look like Babe Ruth when he played for the Mets
@@ryanholloway246 sarcasm was there
Another day, another Urinating Tree video. When I watch, I leave a Like. Congrats on 150K subs dood. Here's to 200K.
The crazy thing now is that Santander is a good player and almost everyone in that rotation that Tree highlighted became studs when they left
2022: The Orioles... actually made progress?! And won 83 games too?
if you think that’s good, just wait until you see this team in 2023…
You're not kidding about all of their pitchers. At one point, they had Arrieta, Bundy, Britton, Brian Matusz, and Chris Tillman, a string of 4 potential aces and a solid 2/3. The only one who's lived up to billing is Arrieta, and he did that in Chicago.
Orlando Magic: “A legacy of Failure”
Oh yes.
Love your channel
The Clippers and Raptors are more deserving
Orlando the magic of historic failure
Black Flags Matter Orlando hires Steve Clifford as a head coach. They are officially fucked.
As an A's fan that moved to the Baltimore area I have finally been able to go and watch my team win games and do it in a beautiful park.
I love my O's and they are FINALLY addressing their decades of mis-management, poor drafting, player development/farm system, and international scouting. All i can do now is hope.
Sucks that Chris Davis was (allegedly) hitting the ball better in spring training only for the coronavirus to put everything on hold.
Now they are 2-1 in the shortened season. Meanwhile my rangers are 1-2. Lol the dodgers are 2-2 and so are the giants.
And here we are in ‘21, I’m hoping my birds win at least 74 games...maybes that’s too optimistic...
@@toneoftones7053 I think we’re gonna win out
@@CokeDrkrNotSnrtr ...and he retired
Going to school in that hellhole of a city has 1 great benefit: $10 Os tix on Friday nights. Not even from seat geek. From the Orioles themselves

Chicago White Sox: The MLB's Carolina Hurricanes
Both won a ship in 2005-06, both have terrible attendance, both are incredibly underwhelming, and both are in metros that couldn't care less about them for the most part.
As a Blue Jays fan, watching Buck Showalter make the worst pitching change in MLB history will never stop being entertaining.
As an Orioles fan, you guys deserved to win that after we did ourselves in.
Well, since Chris Davis retired...
Damn Blue Jays... Used to beat our asses and win World series when we competed in the early 90s. But thankfully the Nats moved to my native DC 15 years later, so no longer do I have to root for the team 40 miles north of me
Ubaldo Jiménez, LOL.
And now he’s managing the Mets…
Chris Davis has retired! Get ready for Bobby Bonilla Day 2.0.
Hmmm, I wonder if “We Like To Party” would play on Chris Davis Day?
It's funny to see this video in 2024. So much has changed in six years.
You can add Kevin Gausman to that list of pitchers
This ages like fine wine. Especially after this season...
it really hasn’t, at least not now
Kevin Gausman, a former pitcher for the Orioles, was a complete flop with them, then was traded to the Giants, where he currently has a 7-0 record with them, is in contention for the Cy Young award, and was just voted pitcher of the month in may. Still feel like trading him was a good decision? 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Do you really think he would've been able to develop there?
@@elcrow113 nope
It was a good decision so Kevin could have a chance and not be wasted. The guy was a stud but he was with the Orioles... a dead man would even deny a grave dug by this franchise
As a big Orioles fan I’ve been waiting on this video
- Hey at least you've still got the Capitals. Congrats to your team on winning the Stanley Cup!
ckendall67 Yep! I’d say the Cup makes up for the Os awful season! 😀
AllAboutAirtime same
We just won the American League East division title. I'm stunned.
"I only wish they'd stop wasting the talents of Gary Thorne and let him announce hockey games again."
*PREACH*
Which team was he announcing hockey games for?
@ Okay. Thanks for that information.
Gary Thorne sucks pucks.
@Harry Engel Yes he did. I'm a Nats fan, but I prefer Gary Thorne over Bob Carpenter.
Harry Engel yes he’s our tv guy. Radio guy Charlie Slowes SOOOOOO much better. We actually had KENNY ALBERT for a season. WE COULDVE HAD KENNY ALBERT
No playoffs, but you ca't help but be proud how well this team played. Expected to be near worst and they got a winning record.
Knowing Buck Showalter, the year after he leaves the Orioles they will win the world series
AmericanNohbuddy ™
just like what happened with the Yankees in 96
Make the Orioles great again.
Showalter is like Boudreau, the NHL version, not the guy who led the Indians to their last title.
- Like when Earl Weaver 'retired' after the '82 season, they won the World Series the following year.
At least Earl Weaver had 1970.
It also doesn't help that Camden Yards is the AL Coors Field
That's an easy fix, move the left field, and right center seats back...oh, and actually learn to develop pitching....or, actually spend money for legit pitching.
Not to mention the Yankees were known to made themselves feel at home whenever they visit.
@@iatros5408 like your profile pic
7:19 about the pitching, Kevin Gausman was terrible until a "real team" rehabilitated him into a Cy Young candidate. Unless someone named DeGrom just so happened to exist in the same year.
Here we are 3 years later. Cedric Mullins and Trey Mancini are playing like Rickey Henderson and Todd Helton respectively and they still can't win a game.
Hey man, we almost win occasionally
Also Santander is actually decent
2019: First team to be eliminated from play-off contention. In August.
LordSnivy ofNottingham
Also, the new owners of the most homers given up in a single season
@@UHOH_415 Also in August...
I'm here after watching the Nationals win a title. I know so many Orioles fans who told me that they'd win another one before the Nationals win their first.
Six years removed and the Orioles are now contenders in their division, have a top rated farm system, have guys like Adley Rutschman and Gunner Henderson on their team, prospects like Jackson Holliday and Coby Mayo up and coming, and to top it all off; the Angelos family selling the team.
Now behind young stars like Adley Rutschman, Dean Kremer, Kyle Bradish, and King Felix II, Baltimore is back and loaded with young talent. They finally learned how to develop pitching again!!
"Buck Showalter: A Legacy of Failure" should follow suit.
2023: The Orioles have risen from the ashes, good for them.
Here in 2023 when they currently have the best record in the American League
I have been a fan since childhood, and I remember 1983 our last championship. We have went through some dark times in the 2000's, then from 2012 to 2016 we did well, since then we have been basement dwellers once again. I know they're putting a lot of faith in Ex Astro GM Mike Elias but so far last place is all we have seen, but we shall see???
This video is still hilarious 5 years later, although Anthony Santander has worked out pretty well
THANK YOU TREE THIS ORIOLE FAN HAS BEEN WAITING FOR A ORIOLES LOLCOW VIDEO FOR QUITE A WHILE
Need a Orioles vid that solely focuses on Angelos and his thin skin. Imagine suspending your lead play by play for saying a stat.
Welcome to being an Orioles fan lolz. And it’s only gotten worse since this video dropped.
It's actually gotten a lot better. The MLB team still sucks, but the minor leagues and player development has taken major steps and they actually have a rebuilding plan now.
@@hardyos1 It's all hopes though. Our offense may end up being studs but our pitching development has been a consistent issue for a generation now.
We gonna be another Padres is that doesn't change
You see I'm a diehard Orioles fan, but this needed to happen, especially with all the shit going on with management and ownership with this team.
Same situation for me, only when he did a video on the Islanders. Sometimes the best way to show you love your team is to watch them get eviscerated for how management has been running things.
Joey Banks The highest attendance games I've seen all season were against the Nationals, Red Sox and Yankees, more than half the fans were for the opposing teams.
@@aqgpandemic5406 As a lifelong Cubs fan, I know how it feels. WGN really did nothing for the Cubs for the longest time. When Ricketts bought the team, we finally had hope, and a few years later, WS. It'll happen to the O's, too, hopefully it won't take 108 years..
Wow the old WCW/nWo Revenge music. Nice touch, I know that music anywhere by how much I played it with my friends back in the day
LOL, I didn't think anybody else would pick up on that! CLASSIC!!
You're a Game off
It's Actually WrestleMania 2000
Aw shit you're right
RIP THQ.
3 years later and we’re still despicable
UPDATE 10/2: Orioles let go Buck Showalter, Dan Duquette.
That was expected after losing 115 games.
Meanwhile In Ottawa
DomaNyte 6 Hoffman’s finance can’t watch the games at the stadium anymore

I don't know who the bigger joke in Ottawa is... Melnyk or Trudeau?
The answer is neither... because neither of them spend any time in Ottawa to begin with.
It could have been worse, you could have watched the famous (or infamous) 30-3 game.
One day, there will be professional baseball in Baltimore.
Fast forward to 2023 now they’re the best in baseball amazing
@@jrvc20turns out that statement was a illusion and Baltimore won 100 games only to be swept in the first round. seems the only bird team who can actually win playoff games since 2014. Are the jays (don’t mention 2020-2023😭)
The Congo line had me in tears 😂
Ahh the sounds of an Oriolers game, where crickets feel more at home than fans
Nick Sacco Seen 2015 after the riots?... That is an angels in the outfield moment. Nothing but ghosts.
It's a good day when I can come home after an 8 hour shift on a construction site in the 92°F Heat and see that my favorite UA-camr uploaded a video. Thanks for making today great, Tree. If I find myself in Pittsburgh, I'm gonna buy you a round.
A Colorado Rockies beat reporter said this regarding the starting pitching
"Pitching inside Coors Field is the equivalent of a vacation in Beirut."
The same can also be said for Baltimore's staff. When your best pitcher is Dylan Bundy, that's frightening to know. Just chuck the GD team in the Chesapeake and be done with it. Don't forget to include Peter Angelos.
Ah Baltimore, the city with so much success in sports that the Orioles look like a red headed step child in comparison. The success of the city, both nationally and internationally is legendary. From the Baltimore Colts strangle hold on the American Football League, to the Ravens fucking over the Browns and winning a Super Bowl mere years after the move. To a comparatively little known team called the Baltimore Stallions just making the Canadian Football league their bitch en route to the first and only Grey Cup won by a non-Canadian city, these accomplishments make Baltimore the most successful city in all of Pro football history. To Olympic gold medal athletes. Yet somehow the Orioles are so bad they haven't even acquired a sliver of this success purely through Osmosis.
And that Baltimore Stallions team became the reincarnated Montreal Alouettes once the CFL pulled the plug on its American experiment.
As an Orioles fan I feel the same way about Gary Thorne
Bob Saget:Are you the real Bob saget. If not it's not good to impersonate an acting idol
Another Bob Murphy protégé.
The Baltimore Orioles could be a .500 team ... if they played the New York Mets for the rest of the season.
That's the only team they own.
Let that sink in.
We just got lucky
2019 Chris Davis start to the season = 0-47. Money well spent friends...
Yep, money well spent, and well lost cause he's as good as done....they'll likely have to eat most of that contract.
To think Chris Davis had received MVP votes several seasons ago before this albatross contract.
As an O's fan this video is hilarious, maddening and sad at the same time. Job well done, Tree.
4 years later:
The Baltimore Orioles are over .500 & are only a half game behind the Toronto Blue Jays for the 6 seed in the AL Wild Card.
Edit: The Orioles missed the playoffs but at least they finished with a record above .500 in 2022.
Edit 2: as of today, July 21st, 2023, the Orioles are the 1 seed in the AL.
3rd edit: the Orioles won the AL East & are the 1 seed in the AL.
4th edit: they got swept by the Texas Rangers in the 2023 ALDS.
Only to completely implode in September and miss the playoffs by a mile XP
@@seanshanleyAnimeUWLPer at least they won’t lose over 100 games this year
Heyyy! That Santander guy is pretty good now...everything else is still the same
*sigh*
3:00 Dave Roberts is thinking "wait you're not supposed to put in a below average reliever in high leverage situations? But I loved Ryan Madson so much"
In April 2002, Peter Angelos will sell the Orioles to a Baltimore-based ownership group consisting of Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti, Allegis Group co-founder and CEO Jim Davis, Allegis Group president Andy Hilger, filmmaker John Waters, former WWE wrestler Stacy Keibler, former Olympian Michael Phelps, former Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis and Orioles legend Cal Ripken Jr. for $2.75 billion.
As a Os fan I knew this was coming
Robert Vine surprised it took so long
Robert Vine same
Robert Vine yeah same, it sucks how we fell off in less than a year
As a baltimore fan the timing for the inevitable tank couldnt be worse. Im gonna be off to college in a year, and i was hoping for just a few more good years before i go, but the organization thinks its 2012 and signs washed up old players
I've been watching you religiously since you were at 5,000 subs and this is the best birthday present ever. Thank you Tree!!
Buck Showalter: Zach Britton is Zach Britton, but Ubaldo Jimenez can be anything! He could even be Zach Britton!
Orioles coaches: So let’s just put in Zach...
Buck Showalter: We’ll put in Jimenez!
Ernie Johnson Jr.: *THERE’S A DRIVE TO DEEP LEFT FIELD AND THE BALLGAME IS OVER!*
Orioles won’t be the same until Peter Angelos croaks.
Crossroad Sports sadly I think you're right.
I wish Cal Ripken could buy the team
My friend is an Orioles fan. He and the rest of the fans are waiting for Angelos to get the Bill Wirth speciality.
I think Orioles fan should throw a parade the day Angelos finally drops dead.
Sadly the team goes to his kids.
Fans have wanted Angelo off the team for 2 decades. Always signs in attendance saying we need a new owner.
You can now add Dylan Bundy to former Orioles pitchers that got better with a new team
FBI Stat Major yep. So Hader,Arrieta,Strop,Bundy, E Rod, Helickson
Just dropping into to thank Tree for the SeatGeek offer. It helped me go to my first ever MLB game. (Phillies V Nats.) made for an awesome birthday present for me and my Dad. Thank you.
Awesome video by the way. Keep up the awesome work.
Although this is meant as humorous parody and poking fun, the reality of this really goddamn hurts. Great vid though Tree!
Your 150K of subs is the mark Chris Davis intends to reach before the all-star break. Well done, sir.
This is honestly one of the best videos you've ever narrated. Fucking SCATHING.
As an O's fan for 32 years, this is the intervention we needed to have. THANK YOU TREE!
Gary Thorne did the Minnesota High School State Hockey tournament a few years ago... It was fantastic and he hasn't lost it... get him back to the NHL
They have continued to screw up pitchers. Dylan Bundy is now a great starter with the Angels and Kevin Gausman is now one of the best starters in the MLB with the Giants
Tfw the Baltimore riots were actually better for the city than their baseball franchise
Background music from WCW/nWo Revenge. Fkn awesome!
Damn they had Kevin Gausman at one point 😂
And now Kevin Gausman is good after leaving the Orioles.
Watching this in 2023 as they clinched the top seed in the AL. Have to admit, after all the nonsense that has plauged the O's, it is quite nice to see that they finally allowed their farm to pay off. Let's hope they can finish it and end the 40 year drought.
I’m an orioles fan who lives in Baltimore and trust me it gets worse every year:(
Just came back to this video 5 years later just after Santander hit a Grand Slam and the Orioles are in first place. What a difference 5 years can make.
And they still find away with suspending their announcer when he said a fact that the O’s did suck but not anymore. But apparently the owner has thin skin.
@@DoesRocksFloatgive orioles fans this moment, they have been suffering for 5 years, let them be happy for one
Thank you Tree. As an Os fan I’ve been waiting for this for a long time. I follow for the Steelers content as a fellow fan but thank you so much for this. You and MLBTrashTalkers have been giving us so much attention this year even if it’s negative and it’s so great.
Thought the Pirates were garbage...
*looks at standings, sees Orioles*
Me: OH GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
THE BAD MAN IS GONE
I am not sure if anyone told you this, UT, but you have talent for foleying and post-production SFX. That throwing up sound is just genius, and sums up the Orioles' in a nutshell.
Camden Yards while beautiful was a ploy to keep the Orioles in Baltimore. Remember the Orioles discussed leaving Baltimore in the 80’s but after the whole Colts fallout the city refused to make the same mistake and built them a terrific stadium so they wouldn’t leave.
Correct. The Orioles had many of the same complaints about Memorial Stadium the Colts did (poor location far from the highway, lower level seats blocked by pillars that held up the upper level, poor plumbing, no skyboxes, tight office space etc) Plus Edward Williams was a lawyer based in Washington D.C.. Moving the team there would have been convenient for him. It was before my time (29 years old) but Memorial Stadium just wasn't that great of a facility.
