I was watching with my wife last night (who likes baseball, but doesn't usually spend much time worrying about the broadcasters) and her reaction to Newman was "ugh, she's so annoying, where's the other guy?"
I do like this idea, mainly because I wouldn't want to trade a top prospect for a volatile and possibly an injury waiting to happen reliever. However, it seems prospect for prospect trades are very rare and I don't see Elias trading a veteran bat for a prospect at this point.
She said something to the affect that the batter had previously hit I o a DP and wouldn’t it be nice if he could do it again. Neither Ben or Melanie seemed to realize that the O’s lost the DH once Rutschman became the catcher. Didn’t mention it once.
That's what I ate, and it was delicious. Any consequences didn't manifest until today, happy to say. That was probably the highlight of my night. Also, it only took me maybe 30 minutes to get home, so I could stew for an hour and calm myself down. Actually ended up watching the re-broadcast of innings 3-6 and turned it off after Gunnar's homer.
