Does that mean Holliday can hit a slider?

Tell your boss you're going to be late.

Folks say that college bats are more of a sure thing but look at Spencer Torkelson. I'm not calling the guy a bust, he's in the majors, but he's not a generational hitter by any stretch of the imagination.

To expand, it's to combat intentionally fielding a non-competitive team (tanking).

Let me know when you get that playoff share for last season.

Nats didn't get Harper and Strasburg by accident.

First off you and I are not part of the "we" that is the Orioles. Secondly it wasn't just the Orioles, the Astros did it, the Cubs did it, we were just the latest and most blatant. Thirdly, it wasn't about the hitting on draft picks, when the rule was changed the O's prospect landscape didn't look this rosy, it was about slashing payroll to nothing and intentionally fielding non-competitive teams for years on end a practice which managed to piss off both the players union and the other owners.

He's had an at bat batting fourth this season. He started 25 games batting fourth last season.

Oh not any time, EVERY time. You just can't help yourself.

I did think you'd have enough wit to change the link I'd inserted but I was wrong. Hey you love me admitting I'm wrong, so there you go! I overestimated you.

He also played an average (imo) first base and a below average outfield. For this team. Or is that another nitpick? Also, thanks for chiming in again when I was responding to someone else.

Oh I was the one nitpicking?

Do you think O'Hearn is an above average defender?

I'm keeping up just fine. Me and the person I was actually responding to finished the discussion amiably. It's just you and your fixation that's still going on. It's funny, they understood what I meant and yet you felt a need to get involved.

Markakis pushed a ball over the fence for a homerun since that happened.
