Seems the most likely. Means is also a possibility.

Yeah but how's the ball coming out of his hand?
Straight as an arrow I’m sure.

Jim just had major back surgery...but he's going to be ready for opening day. He's a warrior. The last of the great Orioles from the great teams still bleeding Orange and Black,and I for one am relieved he's back for as long as he can go.He's still one of the best baseball analysts alive.
He’s the best around as far as I’m concerned. He and Thorne are the best duo in baseball

Is Palmer healthy now? I remember he had some issues last year.

I don’t watch basketball but how does tanking in the NBA work? My understanding is that the draft is a lottery...
The fewer wins you have, the higher your chances of winning the lottery.
Also, you can only drop a maximum of 3 slots based on where your record projected you.

NBA has 16 postseason teams and they’re the poster child league for tanking. Not sure how this helps.

Good SS prospect might elude us for a while.

That's a different O's hat than what's pictured in the OP.

Sorry to steer you guys away from the constant debate and speculation on how we'll finish in last place this year and what players we'll be doing it with. Wanted to bring this to your attention.
I hope none of you are buying this.
This is just awful

I am not a soccer fan but I would imagine, if nothing else, many basketball players would be great candidates to be goalkeepers.
Because of height and reach? Height is why I thought someone like Lebron would be unstoppable on corner kicks. How could you move him out of his location and stop him from heading in goals?

This is why I visit OH. Shows how important the second phase of finding serviceable back end SP out of the mid and lower tier prospects actually is.

I think you guys are dreaming if you believe Davis is getting cut as early as 6 weeks into the season. There’s just nobody pushing down the door in AAA to warrant writing that money off yet. I think we see his playing time dwindle to once a week unless there are injuries, but with an extra bench spot this year they’ll continue to see what happens.
I don’t see a Davis roster spot having any determination on a Mountcastle call up.

But having said all that, it wouldn't hurt US soccer if all the best athletes stopped playing football and other sports and moved to soccer. Although Le Bron would be an unusual soccer player at 6' 9". Peter Crouch looks like a giraffe on a soccer pitch and he's 6' 7".
I don’t know a lot about soccer, but wouldn’t a guy built like Lebron excel in soccer? Or would he likely lack the required finesse

As much as I hated Dave Parker in '79, i would've loved to see him playing in black and orange. Probably a HOF'er over many that have gotten in. But there are so many that just don't deserve to be in (Harold Baines anyone?).
Yeah Baines is one of the most egregious choices I can recall.

I’m a “small Hall” guy, so there’s probably nobody who didn’t make the Hall who I’d put in. But there’s probably 25+ guys I’d kick out.
I struggle a bit with the gamblers and the known PED users, some of whom clearly deserve the HOF if you ignore that stuff.
Yeah there’s a lot of guys I’d like to kick out, and then replace with greats who aren’t in due to writers trying to impose punishments the Commissioner wasn’t strong enough to impose.

If Mancini isn’t traded, I totally agree. He has to go at that point unless he can magically hit again.
I think we see Mountcastle when we get our first injury.

I’m more interested in who’s in the best shape of their life.

I don't buy any of this - I'm pretty sure it would've come up in the investigation if there were anything to it - but I admit it'd be pretty darned entertaining if it turns out to be true.
Guess I'm subconsciously rooting for mass chaos.
They said it came up. Just couldn’t prove it.

Yeah, and what does it really mean? The fans still remember the championship, and the celebration. Do USC fans feel any different about the 2004 national championship because it was "vacated"? I don't think so. I guess they can't fly a flag over the football field, or display a trophy in a trophy case.
The Astros championship will now be tainted in a lot of people's minds, and not in others. Making some official statement that there was no champion that year, what does that really add? Are you going to declare the Dodgers the champions now? Are they going to have a parade for them in LA?
It's meaningless and I'm not sure what the people calling for it really are asking for.
If USC were actually the best team in 2004, they might still feel good about that season.

I think a better poll would be would you be willing to give up a couple late first round draft picks and Hyde's and Elias' jobs for the Orioles to win a World Series.
Not even close. Of course you’d take that because we’re nowhere near winning one now.

I’m thinking Wynns or Sisco at C
i hope we don’t have to see Smith in LF. He’s terrible in every way as a fielder. Williams as the RF is disappointing because he’s a AAAA at best.
Looks like another really bad team.
