They really are. It seems that since Elias & Co has come aboard that they have gotten a lot better at marketing and promotions. I am not sure how much he has to do with that but I'd imagine he's got some standards and ideas.

I'd rep but I'm out. That was good ?

One of the things I like best about today is that no one knows anything about these players we just signed. So there's no bitching about who we should have signed but didn't. Everyone's just happy we got some young talent in the door.

Ok, so he's not fat but he looks like Emmanuel Lewis.

Looks like his name is actually spelled Erick. Good summary, I wouldn't be surprised about this.

Hard for me not to think that with the draft last month and a healthy J2 this franchise is way better off than where it was this time a year ago.

Baltimore’s international class is also expected to include right-handed pitchers Raul Rangel and Moises Chace of Venezuela, along with shortstop Leonel Sanchez of the D.R. Additionally, the Orioles are expected to sign catcher Kenny Baez, right-handed pitcher Edgar Portes, along with shortstops Alexander Sanchez and Roberto Martinez, who are all from the Dominican Republic. • Top international prospects signings Expect the Orioles to be busy in the years to come. Many of the top international prospects in this year’s class, and even some in the 2020-21 class, had already picked a team when Perez took over in early January. The club shifted its focus to finding late bloomers for the current period while also scouting future classes.

Hipster.

I can't find any video on Eric Cains, either.

I don't really want one either but I think it's cool Elias had some printed up and is making a big deal out of it.

This is like a concert t for baseball dorks. You can say you were at your computer the day these guys signed. And it looked like it was one of those Nike workout tees, too. Perfect for everyone here who's out of shape and not interested in hitting the gym.

Eric Cains RHP DR That name does not sound Dominican at all.

It's a tough job.

No, no, please by all means, feel free to be a wiseass when engaging with CoC.

I can't find any video on De La Cruz.

I'd give rep but I'm all out apparently. One thing I've always wondered about these workout videos, especially ones like these...are they swinging hard or only going at like, 80%? Same with the infield throws, are they going at game speed?

So he's really 21.

It's absolutely true. But I'd almost rather have the kids that aren't concerned with the least amount of competition because they know they're good. I guarantee that Jassssssson Dominguez kid that the Yankees just signed does not give a crap about the Yankees depth and a direct path to the majors.

Cause you're not the target audience.

Oh, I don't know, atomic. Possibly because some of these kids could be turned off by what a dumpster fire this team has been over the past couple of years. Sure, they all want to make money, leave the Dominican and play ball somewhere but that doesn't mean that another team like the one with the white interlocking N and Y on their dark blue hats is perceived as a cooler place to be. And their money is just as green. Ever think of that?

Yac has never had a start like the one Chris Waters had. In regards to Eshelman, glad to see he kept the ball on the ground. But not being able to get at least a couple strikeouts, especially in this era, is troubling.

I wonder if these kids have any idea how bad the team is this year.

We're off to a roaring start!

Speak for yourself there, pork chop.
