An NL west team is about as far off my baseball radar as possible. Not sure why it was so obvious but I believe you.
-
Dude, WAY too much. 2 at bats and then 3 pitches into the third at bat, tops.
-
Kinda like we'll put anyone with a pulse on the mound.
-
wildcard texted me, said he's flying out to see Little Yaz's first game. Made a sign and everything.
-
I'm encouraged by the news. I don't think Elias is a BSer. I'm not getting my hopes up that we'll be the #1 spender in international FA....but that he's making this a focus, it's really nice to see.
-
To be fair, it's an exceedingly low bar to surpass. I mean, we could sign like 5 guys for 250k each and that's a big improvement.

Jones Jones is putting up Jones type numbers. .271/.330/.486 for an .816 OPS. 9 homers, 28 RBI. Should easily eclipse last years totals.
-
Someone, somewhere is whining that it was a bad route and that a better outfielder wouldn't have had to have leap for it.
-
He is. People have pointed to his peripherals and statcast stats around here. I am fearful the carriage is turning back into a pumpkin.

Can Means become the Orioles’ version of Kuechel?
Moose Milligan replied to Obando's topic in Orioles Talk
That's cool but I'm looking past 2019 standards. Plus he only had 1 strikeout, 3 walks. That's not good. -

Not a good outing. Curious to see how he's going to bounce back in the next start. -
At that point he's already established trade values!

You must be new here.

If you look closely enough, you can see Baltimore's inferiority complex.

@Can_of_corn has a bone to pick with you on that notion.

Sounds like a road you've been down before.

It's a fantastic narrative you can't comprehend, therefore I'll keep it up. And yes, people are saying that, essentially, because he wasn't highly touted to begin with. Guys that get drafted in the later rounds get viewed in a different light. Look how many chances a guy like Jeffrey Hammonds got, despite not being able to stay healthy for more than 5 minutes. You think Jeffrey Hammonds would have received all those chances if he were drafted in the 10th round? Guys that get drafted in the first round get every opportunity to show that they CAN'T play. If Mancini was a 1st round pick it'd be all "OMG, he's finally coming into his own, we've got a piece we can build around!" instead of "Hey, what can we trade him for, he can't keep this up...right?!" which is pretty close to saying "This hot start isn't sustainable because he was selected in the eighth round."
-
I got your bupkiss right here... I just think that people would be more apt to not write him off if he was a 1st or 2nd round pick. Comprende?
-
He was hurt. Sorry for introducing context.
-
"Like, oh my god, he was draaaaafted in the 8th round and never made a top 100 prospect list, I just caannnnnn't have that on my team." "Um, are you, like, kidding me? He's not a great outfielderrrr and like, that's super important and I think we just have to have Gold Glovers at, like, every position....whateverrrr, have you seen his UZR?"
-
People here are sleeping on Mancini. "Like, oh my god, he's ALREADY 27 and will probably BE OVER 30 by the time the Orioles are good again. Like, I just cannnn't have that on my team, everyone has to be under 30." That dude doesn't slump for very long, he's quick to make adjustments. He's got a good approach.
-
That is terrible. Looks like he's doing ok with the bat though, .785 OPS. But the lack of defense certainly has to take away from any offensive value he's got.

Always at the top of the popular contributors on the OH has to count for something, right? -

21 starts of mid 3.00 ERA...offset by two terrible months. And they must have been REALLY bad to make an ERA rise like that. Like I said, complete body of work. But agree to disagree.
