Fine - I don't really care any more - this conversation got really tiresome. Sometimes, let the other person have the last word - like now.

Typo - the decision to not pick Martin.

Again, so what? There's a huge difference between the expectations for Kierstad and Adley. And everybody gets that you hated the Martin trade.

So what? Where did he end up playing? Not to mention where he was the #1 #1.

Ok, then that's probably another part of the reason we were disagreeing.

Normal and Orioles are 2 very different things.

Ok, we have different points of view there. I would uh...hesitate... .... quite a bit.more than you to trade a top talent.

I'm confused as to what point you're trying to make. Is it that you hope the O's trade him for a halfway decent price?

The O's aren't in a position where they can trade away a player with the kind of talent Hays has - unless they get an amazing offer. Those are the kind of players they need to eventually compete.

No.

Maybe it's Hayes vs Santander. It's hard to rely on 2 such injury-prone players. Otoh, they can't really risk trading Hayes unless they get an incredible offer.

Yeah, I think Stewart's still out injured for a little longer.

Whitlock's impressive. If he stays healthy, the Sawx have a good one there.

Thank goodness Rui bailed him out.

He's the reason we don't have a double-digit lead - so un-clutch!

Garrett Richards has been seriously Francophiled.

Hey, if you keep reaching for the starts... you'll just look like an idiot stretching that way.

A game. But come to think of it, it might have been Decinces to 2B; not SS. If so, that's the same change for Ruiz. Maybe that was the inspiration for Hyde's ungenius move.

Hey, I still remember a game where Earl Weaver tried Eddie Murray at 3B and Doug Decinces at SS, so anything's possible. I guess. Maybe.

3rd base and 2nd base are so dramatically different - unlike 2nd and SS. With Rio having so little experience playing up the middle... I'd love for it to work, but the chances are so much against it. I mean, Hyde admitted the idea came to him a week ago... LMAO! This sounds like such a minor league operation to make this decision. Rio made them look good for a day, but what happens when he botches double play turns the next couple of days? The O's have an obligation to field a Major League team. I don't see this ending well - Hopefully I'm wrong.

I expected to see neither hyde nor hair of him.

I'm still trying to process the fact that he's our starting 2nd baseman.

Oh gawd, I shoulda never suggested that trip to the nursing home - ignored the unwritten rule they wrote about it. Sigh.

Lol, you might be getting too good at that and won't be able to stop. We'll know if you get excited about Don Buford's steals in 1969 - when he stole 19 but got caught 18 times. Hey, he stole 19. What's this new fangled stat called caught stealings?

30 homers, 93 RBIs' - all-star! Go to your local nursing home and do a poll. Don't mention fwar, or you better bwar..
