Did something change for Yaz this offseason? Everyone was kind of hoping that he would do this last year. I'm impressed just on the fact he's hitting in Norfolk. Nobody does that. Not since Reimold's hot steak nearly 10 years ago.

He's the hottest guy in the system no doubt. He'd probably be on the team if not for Kim.

Now I'm sure Kim has a big night tonight in the 9th spot. Thanks.

You should head out to a casino with a call like that.

Maybe the thing to do is offload Alvarez rather than Kim - and bring up Yaz2.

Cut Kim and eat the $7 mil. Here. I'll put the first $10 in an envelope and mail it to Uncle Pete. Now call up Yaz and let's give this kid a shot .. He's earned it.

Now I'm sure Kim has a big night tonight in the 9th spot. Thanks.

Ha Ha, not likely.

ooo Ha ha.

Not that excited. As I recall, Walker hit great his first 2-3 weeks in AAA in 2014, then cooled off. Yaz did the same in AA, I'm pretty sure.

I think Yaz has enough all-around skills where he might be a Rickard-level contributor next year. That's about all.

      Westburg shouldn’t be, where are you seeing that?

      So since Westburg is apparently still ROY eligible, Cowser and Westburg may project to be the best rookie combination since Fred Lynn and Jim Rice in 1975?

      There were several and I was one them. I'm  on record as saying I was one of his biggest Apologists . You should feel good about yourself as you were able to see that Means would be imploding before our very eyes( which was an opinion or a guess, which is what I did) as far as feeling bad for me? Dont I'm plenty good enough to know I wont be able to guess right every time

      Orioles acquire Ryan O’Hearn

      Fantastic pickup by Elias and big kudos to O’Hearn for taking advantage of the resources to improve. He’s a great story.

      Given his injury history and what’s happening right now, Means may make more money as an Oriole next year than as a free agent. He may have to settle for league minimum as a FA but would do better than that in arbitration. Heck, unless he’s effective at least a little this year then the orioles might release him after the season to avoid paying more than league minimum. I hope Means recovers, very much so, but this scenario is possible imo.    ps. I guess I ignored the part where you said if Means thinks he is healthy.

      Jackson Holliday 2024

      By Billy F-Face3 · Posted

      What I'd like to see in the next game Holliday plays, is for him to keep his eyes following through on the ball when he swings. In the last game I saw, he was yanking his head off the zone when he swung and couldn't see the bat to the ball. He was missing wildly and it wasn't even competitive. So, keep your eye on the ball! Follow all the way through! If your swing is so violent that it's yanking your head off the sight of the ball, then adjust your mechanics because you can't hit what you can't see!

      What a great example of pedantic! Please tell us you meant to do that. I honestly can’t tell these days.
