  1. At this rate, the orioles will have 5 players in the top 15 prospects in baseball come midseason.
  2. She is fine for tv. We were spoilt with Jon Miller and I harbor that loss greater than losing Mussina. She is not the greatest and I always hope she will get better because she seems like a decent person and she is knowledgeable. That said, I found the legendary Vin Scully insufferable to listen to. He had some great stories, however I don’t need a bedtime story during the game.
  3. Been here long enough to know the rules. If not, they are pinned at the top of the page for you.
  4. Thank you. I don’t remember the rules for time between games and travel and if there is a maximum delay time or any of that.
  5. Is it possible they start around 5 or 6? Looks like there is a good window to get the game in then. Or does that interfere with travel?
  6. I’m unfortunately working. Does Henderson just need a double for the cycle?
  7. Or maybe it should be discussed in the minor league board instead. I’m irritated, he was clearly the best option to start the season at second. Maybe they get an extra year out of it and maybe Mateo starts the year the same as last. Whatever, I’m over it, just keep winning and I will be fine and happy enough.
  8. Is it worse to discuss the decision to have him start at AAA or worse when people on here wanted to send Henderson back down last year? This would be a pretty boring message board if we all lived in an echo chamber of the same opinion. Of course, what ever my opinion is is the correct one and everyone who disagrees is a dolt.
  9. Who pissed in your Cheerios?
  10. Quality of life matters a lot when you already have a good bit of money. I don’t have baseball player money, but I have enough that I would not move my family to NY. There are also tax implications that have to be factored in. But yes, most people like to see the dollars on their paychecks. I have a friend who owns a big electrical company and he is constantly losing people to the dollars an hour over the provided company truck with no maintenance or fuel cost and additional benefits. If you did a cost/benefit analysis, they are ahead where they currently are but people aren’t always logical.
  11. Or we could wake up tomorrow and find that they have signed Montgomery. Then you would have to ponder a long relief bp spot or a trade of Irvin.
  12. Trying to tame my frustration. It makes sense short term and long term for the team as long as the opening day team can hold their own the first half and the better replacements come in at the second half. I don’t like it, but I guess I get it. I should just be glad that players like Westburg or Cowser are not even really thought about much because they have players like Rutschman, Henderson, Holliday, Basillo and Mayo. Not that long ago we would be drooling over the potential of Westburg and Cowser who may very well be serviceable good players for years to come.
  13. It is BS and everyone knows it. He isn’t going to get any great t opportunities to hit lefties at AAA and if that was a real issue, he would be facing every lefty in the system for the remainder of the next week in simulated games. He is hands down better than Wong and probably starts the year better and has a better season than Henderson did last year. The reality is ME was hoping to find a trade that made sense to clear some room for him or hoped for a struggle of sorts to get the extra year. I hope he tears the cover off the ball at AAA and forces his way into the team by mid year and then comes up and finishes top two in the ROY just to shove it up MEs rear end for playing this game with probably the second best player on the team after Henderson. Of course that is ancillary to my want for them to win the WS.
