So...is Urias the primary 3B with Gunnar at SS?

So, does that mean Wong, Nevin and McKenna made the team?

NOW, we can finally win a championship! This has been the problem for a long time.

So, what do you think the chances are of one more trade from Elias before the season starts, specifically with one of our OF's or IF's?

I think we see Urias out there either to 2b or 3b (with Gunnar at SS)

I would rather they be doing well in Spring Training as opposed to the alternative.

I wonder if limiting injuries is inadvertently causing it. Guys know they only have to throw five innings so they throw harder and don't pace themselves

Sorry, just realized that this is from last year. Anyway, what's your prediction for this opening day?

Bump How are your predictions looking everyone? Wanna subtract or add? Post your revised roster.

The game before it, Tuesday afternoon, I was there and it was full. Quite a few people in the SRO section too.

I was there today as well. Very impressive game. I was impressed with the crowd, a sell out on a Tuesday afternoon. I remember a few years ago when I could buy a cheap ticket and then sit in an empty seat behind home plate with no problem.

That's what I was thinking. Both of these lineups are better than some that will be fielded by some teams this season.

I agree with McKenna and Mateo, not sure if I agree on Urias.

Our young guys, like Cowser, Kjerstad, Stowers, Holiday and Mayo, have not had regular exposure to MLB pitching. Will we see an adjustment period when they come up? Since we are definitely in a "win now" mode, should we go with veterans that at least have a track record against MLB pitching, like Urias, O'hearn and Mountcastle? Who do you think are better players RIGHT NOW?

Stowers over Kjerstad?

Forget options, service time, trade value, etc..., who would be your top 26 players for opening day? Who gives us the best chance to win immediately?

They must have an option remaining to be able to do that, correct?

So...if a team signs Snell or Montgomery but they aren't ready come opening day, what is their roster status? Do they still have to be on the 26/40? Can they phantom DL them?

Wait! What is Duquette doing there? His story is an interesting one. Did a good job for teams in the past. Was let go by Boston and couldn't get a job for nine years. Comes to the O's and makes them relevant again. Was considered for the Blue Jays president, but the O's don't let him out of his contract. In 2018, his contract runs out, and then he can't get a job again. He's got to be better than some of the GM's out there, right? I will always appreciate the work he did for us and making Baltimore baseball fun again.

It definitely looks like our depth is better than everyone else's depth

Finish the statement. I'll start: It's only spring training but I would rather be winning than losing

But if you want someone and you think the team in order in front of you would claim him, you offer something in a trade to "jump" them

Love these, especially with no TV coverage. Keep it up!

But, but spring stats mean nothing

How? What's the worst that can happen?
