  1. A big 4 hit evening for the Balt boys. Makes for a quick game, if you don't make too many gaffs on D. Maybe they are listening to Hyde and tightening it up. Now he has to jump on the offense and get it to come around.

  2. Braves announcers been heaping love on Os players. Talking about Musina going to HOFand how he was one of a few to hang it up after winning 20 in his last season. Not complementary about Os management. Not given current stats on spring training. Wondering  if there is even a PR guy available. Talking about what a tough division Os are in. 

  3. Hays leads off with a single to left. Advances to second on a squiber to first by Sisco. Wild pitch, Hays to third. Sanchez BB.. Pitching change. Morton out. Newcombe new pitcher. Mullins gets a sac fly off a left handed pitcher who had hit 100. Tie game. Mancini Ks. 

  4. Tell them that they aren’t paying them.  I’m sure plenty of people would love the exposure and would volunteer for it. 

    Isn't that what they are doing with the group of broadcaster's they brought in last year? Think of the exposure you'd get doing big league games. Get a free sub, chips, and a coke at Weiss. No criticism, or no sub and you're out of here by sundown.

  5. Put Ritchie Martin at short for the first 50 to 60 games and see what he’s got. Keep Ruiz at third, and Sanchez at second. With Davis at first you have a solid field no hit infield. Just rely on analytics to position the infielders. All they need is an accurate arm so they don’t throw too many balls away and soft hands to pickup the balls hit at them. Don’t need great range. Pitchers are expected to strike out at least one batter per inning so don’t need as good an infield defense as before. Less ground balls to be fielded. Valaika can be subbed at any position and could still get his AB’s. That way, the Orioles can save 2.5 million on a ss and be just as good as if they did spend the money. Winning is not the objective in 2021.
