  1. I think that was a competition site to see who could come up with the best make believe trades. SG is the Mike Trout of that competition site.
  2. Yeah, that about sums it up. I don't care if they were actually "drafted" or not.
  3. If we start mixing up U2 in here, I will throw out downvotes like a drunken sailor in a strip club making it rain.
  4. I agree with that. He's also avoided the big inning which ties into making some good key pitches in certain spots.
  5. Chelsea_Phil is hacking at everything. Makes Stowers look like Gunnar Henderson.
  6. Only struck out 4 last night. But he also didn't walk anyone. His K rate is 6.8 this year so far, a little higher than what he did last year. I'd like to see that number above 8 before making any proclamations about how he's solidifying himself as a starter for us.
  7. I also think it's hilarious that he typed "Tony Oh" in the thread title. Makes Tony sound like a slap hitting 2nd baseman. Tony Oh can't be a power hitting corner outfielder. Tony Oh hits .260 with a .320 OBP, a .415 slugging but is a good defender and a team glue guy.
  8. This is wrong and I know it, but I don't differentiate much between the amateur draft and signing a guy like Basallo. There are two different mechanisms at work (and yes, I know that an international signing can be everything from a 16 year old kid in the Dominican all the way up to Ohtani...but I am more focused on the lower level amatuer international signings here) but they're both ways to get young talent into the system. Let's suspend reality for a second and assume that Basallo and Almeyda were on the Orioles right now (I know, I know, just hold on). We'd still have 9 guys on the roster that were technically "drafted" but, IMO, Basallo and Almeyda would still be an example of homegrown talent on the roster. Who cares if they were part of the official MLB draft or not?
  9. I noticed you weren't around, I figured you were on a vacation or something. I mean, not in THAT sense...like you actually went somewhere.
  10. Looks like he might be getting back on track. McDonald was on the broadcast tonight talking about how Perez was comparing his delivery from this year to last year and made some adjustments.
  11. SG in 2048 before Jackson Holliday’s HOF induction ceremony: ”DrUw JoNeS wAs sTiLl tHe RiGhT pIcK!!!”
  12. MMMMMMOOOOOOAAAAAARRRRR RUUUUUUUUNNNSSSS
  13. Vavra hit that one hard. Him and Henderson have made strong contact, that’s boding well.
  14. O’Hearn put an O’Hurting on that one!
