    You forgot Richie Martin. Not hitting yet but he really is a good SS. ML SS. Seems like he's slowing the game down now. Bordick said "poise" last night. Getting comfortable and his considerable natural talents are starting to shine. All for only $50,000 plus the ML min.

    He's definitely better than what we trotted out there during the dark years, but I'm not sure he'll be the starter on the next Orioles playoff team. I'm really hoping he continues to show growth at the plate.

  2. Must have been an interesting first game for Hays. Long rain delay, so he got to spend a lot of time just hanging out in the clubhouse. That is probably the first time that he's been at OPACY. Then to cap it off, a walk off homer by Manny. Welcome to the bigs kid!!!!

    Generally speed grades are based on home to first times.   So, I'm assuming he got some slower home to first times.  I haven't put a stop watch on him, he plays fast so I've trusted the 55 speed grade most outlets have put on him.  I'll time him when he gets a start for the O's.

    I have a feeling that his home to first time for his first hit in the bigs might be the fastest he's ever run in his life. :)

  4. This is the latest song (the third one) in a video series at my home studio. If you're into the whole YouTube thing, give it a Follow if you enjoy it. Thanks!

    Gilbert Lee is a singer-songwriter from Cumberland, MD. This is a really cool tune!

  5. Wow, unreal 9th inning in the Bronx. To summarize:

    --Yankees led 6-5 when the inning started at 10:36 PM in a heavy rain.

    --Chapman walked the first hitter, then went 3-1 on the 2nd.

    --Girardi asked the umps to stop the game, which they did.

    --Rain delay lasted 3:35.

    --Play resumed at approximately 2:15 AM with Yates replacing Chapman.

    --Yates struck out the first batter then surrendered HBP, HBP, 2-run single, HBP, BB, 2-run single for a 9-6 lead.

    --Yankees go down in the bottom of the 9th without scoring.

    --Game ended at 2:45 AM on Ellsbury's flyout to left with 2 runners on, so the 9th inning took 4:09 of elapsed time to complete.

    This makes me smile.
