This is Goober Noodles and his sweetie. Orioles fans living in Seattle. This was DEEP into the 18 inning win in 2012 in Seattle. I downloaded it from a national AP article.

Win one for Phil! :thumbsup1:

I wasn't there, but I DID stay up until 4 o'clock in the morning, and kept posting on the game thread.

Goober was lucky to be at the game, partly because it's always great to be at an Orioles game, and partly because FOR HIM, the game ended at 1 o'clock in the morning, and not 4 o'clock, like it did for us.

I love that there's two other O's fans behind them. Diehards.

2:45 - 11:15.

Been on 2nd shift for about 10 years. Or 53...

My new job, going on 4 months now... I started on day shift, 6:45. I try to get to BED by 6 am... It gets to be 11:00 or midnight... I try to go to sleep. I roll around til 2 or 3 am. Can't sleep. This second time I'm not even trying to go to bed till 2 am. Wear myself out till I can't help but sleep. Enough 3 hour nights and I'll slep.

    • I would prefer not to do a 7 year deal. But my point is if not Burnes than who? How long are we going to be able to trade for 1/2 year rental types (like he currently is)?  If we allow Burnes to walk in FA, then we are going to have to sign someone (who won’t be as good). OR trade one of our top level prospects for a Luzardo or maybe one of the Mariners young controllable starters. If the Reed Sox were allowed sign a Burnes and we do nothing or go with some kind of patchwork Kyle Gibson signing, they would be real close to catching up to us.
    • Obviously, the years/dollars matter in regard to Burnes. I can see where Burnes might be the next in line to lay claim to the Verlander/Scherzer crown as one of the preeminent power pitchers of his time...that is to say he goes through his 30s and comes out the other side as one of the top 5 pitchers in baseball for a decade or longer.  He's been durable, he seems to prepare himself in the way that those guys do and I think he will last.  Of course, it's not my money. I don't know how the new ownership group will approach free agency and quite frankly, I'm not sure if I really care at the moment.  I'm sure I'll care in the offseason, though. I will say, I'd really like to see the new ownership spend to lock up the talent we already have before spending on free agency.   
    • Completely agree. Not sure what the analytics would say, but to me (from TV vantage point), Kremer’s best stuff comes by two pairings: (A) 4 seam 95mph at top of zone and curveball, and (B) splitter and 2 seamer at bottom of the zone.  Both probably tunnel in the same way to the batters.  And his cutter should be reserved only for jamming lefties on their hands, bc he hangs far too many meatballs against righties. 
    • How was the weather?  My recollection was that he didn’t have a feel for it that game and had trouble locating either for a strike or close enough to get a chase.
    • We can just say impact = well above replacement level. Kremer is a great guy to have as our #5 as he would have been on Opening Day if not for the aforementioned starter injuries. I'm sure no one really thought Bradish would be AL Cy Young-4 in his second year in the MLB. That's a fantastic hit by Elias. That and getting Gunnar in the 2nd may be the most impressive things Elias has done?  To answer your question, no I probably didn't think much of Bradish when we got him as an A Ball pitcher. Would I have bet he individually would be elite? No. But would I bet there'd be an elite pitcher in all the pitching prospects we got back for Manny Machado, Zach Britton, Jonathan Schoop, Kevin Gausman, Darren O'Day, Dylan Bundy, Jonathan Villar, Miguel Castro, Jose Iglesias, Cole Susler, Tanner Scott? Well I'd hope so. Out of them we got Bradish, Kremer, and Tate (1 elite SP, 1 decent SP, 1 reliever and a bunch of names we've forgotten). I'll take it. We'll see what we get any SP's out of the Trey Mancini and Jorge Lopez hauls.  Now we're in a different position where we aren't selling off assets to get back dart throws. At this point, our conversation will get circular but it will take value in prospects or value in dollars or some combination of both to get more elite talent in the rotation. Don't expect to give middle tier contracts out and get back elite level performance. And I don't think we'll be able to maintain this ridiculous level our farm system is at forever. And we won't be able to have the luxury of sending off 12 years of Joey Ortiz and DL Hall type players for 1 year rentals every year.     
    • I actually think you hit on it.   The more realistic extension candidates are Cowser, Westburg, Kjerstad, Mayo, and Basallo.
    • I like it. Tomorrow will be the intersting one.
