Yep. That's something I would find a way to back up on iCloud if possible.

I'm surprised they weren't tossing around ideas how Cashman could steal him for the Yankees.

Newman kept on about how Mountcastle went yard off his old roommate Hunter Harvey. She asked Ben, so what's the protocol on this - does Mountcastle send him a fruit basket?

Billy wrote it himself. For nearly 20 years, Billy Ripken hasn't told the whole story. That is, until he revealed to me how it all went down: "I got a dozen bats in front of my locker during the 1988 season. I pulled the bats out, model R161, and noticed--because of the grain patterns--that they were too heavy. But I decided I'd use one of them, at the very least, for my batting practice bat." "Now I had to write something on the bat. At Memorial Stadium, the bat room was not too close to the clubhouse, so I wanted to write something that I could find immediately if I looked up and it was 4:44 and I had to get out there on the field a minute later and not be late. There were five big grocery carts full of bats in there and if I wrote my number 3, it could be too confusing. So I wrote 'F--k' Face on it." https://www.cnbc.com/id/28116692

Cal Sr was originally #47 the real #7

Excellent as always, Roy.

In time for Opening Day. Who would've thunk it?

A piercing thought stopped Jim Palmer in the midst of a recent conversation covering his 61 years with the Orioles. He has never traveled to Baltimore for a baseball spring without knowing Brooks Robinson would be there. Robinson, who died in September, was more than a longtime teammate and hot corner hoover who kept runs off Palmer’s pitching ledger. “It was deeper than that,” Palmer said, thinking of the countless times Robinson and his wife, Connie, nurtured Palmer’s family with their kindness and wisdom. Such melancholic moments arrive more frequently now that Palmer is 78. He doesn’t look his age or sound it when he calls games in his fourth decade as an Orioles broadcaster. But he says goodbye to more friends every year. As the Orioles prepare to celebrate 70 years in Baltimore, Palmer is the living thread that binds all eras of the club’s history. He pitched for every Orioles team that made the World Series, accepted mentoring from the men who built the team’s culture and dispensed it to the generations that followed him. He remains a vital, candid voice connecting fans to the current Orioles, who pack so much youthful promise that they remind Palmer of the great teams from his pitching heyday. https://www.baltimoresun.com/2024/03/25/orioles-70th-anniversary-jim-palmer/

The Sun reported it yesterday. Sources with knowledge of the deal’s prospects previously told The Baltimore Sun the sale could take as few as six weeks (although it might take longer, the sources hedged). That would make the transaction quicker than other MLB sales and result in the new group taking over as owners before Baltimore’s opening day on March 28. https://www.baltimoresun.com/2024/02/07/orioles-sale-mlb-ownership-committee/

Springsteen rescheduled for this year. Maybe he was clued in to the owner change. Maybe the Rolling Bones will come here and dedicate this to Rubenstein

I prefer to reheat pizza in oven at 375, but a quick hack is to put in a covered frying pan, toss in a couple ice cubes, and let steam. The best pizza to eat cold if you're in a hurry.......Ledo. Breakfast of ex-champions. I'm not a fan of any frozen pizza. Wegman's used to make decent pizza if you bought it fresh baked in the store. Different strokes for different folks I guess
