Moose Milligan

It could be more of a mental thing by this point, like a hitting version of the yips.

It looks neck and neck.

I was just talking about baseball.

It's certainly in the conversation as one of the worst contracts. I think it's got a chance to be the worst when it's all said and done.

Is this the worst contract in baseball history?

Everything thrown at Davis is unhittable.

Palmer's the best.

He's lying to himself. He was plenty athletic back in the day. He bailed Manny out on a lot of throws because of it.

This struck me as odd, too. When he was in his prime, I never thought of him as out of shape or fat. A big dude for sure and a good bit of muscle, but certainly not a Prince Fielder type. If I'm Davis, I'd have gone to Craig Wallenbrock last offseason. Then again I don't think Wallenbrock can fix a slow bat.

I still have. Hoping this carries through and he's made some changes.

Here's hoping Diaz is a stud. I know they gotta play the service clock game but I hope he rips it up in the minors and forces Baltimore's hand to bring him up sooner rather than later.

Looks like we finally sold at the right time. Never thought Gausman was a good pitcher, but I am sorry to hear this.

Tell me something I don't already know.

@Can_of_corn dude, you think Sisco could be a Piazza type? You gotta chill.

Damn, another homer. Well done.

Exactly what I'm afraid of.

Here's hoping.

I'm actually not. I've got mixed feelings. I feel for the guy (a little, little bit) and I'd like to see him do well. On the flip side of that coin, any sign of life possibly gives the Orioles reasons to give him more and more chances, something I don't want to see. "Remember that week 3 months ago where he hit .350 with 5 homers? He can do it again! Never mind he's hit .176 since then!"

I hope Pop and Flaa make the team at some point so we can make some Pop Flaa jokes.

Someone needs Toe-Tap as their username. Here's hoping Diaz is legit.

Ok, cool.

Is Diaz still impressive?

Yeah, you're right.

They already are swallowing 80 million if he's -3 WAR.

I am not sure anyone would take him, even if we pay 100% of his salary. There's no value there if he continues to play at this level. He'd be a detriment to any team, even if that team was starved for 1B production. They'd be better off getting a AAAA guy up, most likely. Davis provides more value to the Orioles by NOT playing. From a roster flexibility standpoint, from a 1B production standpoint, he provides more value by being cut. I get letting Elias trying to iron him out, I'm cool with that. It makes sense, but up until a certain point.
