incubus

No mention whatsoever of Kjerstadt and we still moved up. Crazy.

Ahh. Didn’t say regular season. Just MVP.

One of the Orioles on the list did that as well…

Are we taking into consideration their contract? I’d probably rather have Felix at $1m as long as he’s under a 6 ERA for this year over Cobb at $15m even at a 3ERA.

My brain immediately went to Luis Ayala.

What exactly about ESPN is socialist? It always cracks me up when older people who lived through the red scare use socialism or communism as some catch all fear-trigger word for things they don’t like, despite not knowing what either word actually means. Man the US education system has failed us.

So ultimately a high risk and low reward deal. $1.9m surplus is pretty low reward.

Most studies have cases of this happening, not most cases. Sorry if I was unclear.

One thing to consider with this: even a perfectly healthy, low risk player could have their career ended by getting covid 19. Most reports of patients from 6-7 months ago are showing long term repercussions to lungs. If a player ends up with a lung capacity permanently decreased by 25% that could very easily spell the end of their career.

If they’re going to do this, add 2 more teams and create a 4 team division system like the NFL. I don’t want to see 4 wild cards in the play-offs, Kinda lame. 4 division winners, 3 wild cards both leagues.

I’m literally wearing my 2019 spring training cap now, I have a streak going back to 2014, I feel I must buy it to keep the streak going...

Port Covington is literally the creation of an entirely new (and wealthy) neighborhood in Baltimore. Something most other US cities could not do. Baltimore has a ton of potential. I just hope we take the poor and working class with us when we improve and not just push the lower income people out of the city like DC did.

Yeah but the crime isn’t happening with much frequency around the stadiums. OPACY isn’t on the west side. But not coming to spend money downtown is only going to exacerbate the problem. The county depends on the city, they have a symbiotic relationship, so we need to look out for each other.

Yes, they generally use the main field. We went 2 years ago when the main field was being worked on and they used a back field. But I’ve been to a game every year there since ‘11 and they’ve all been main field games except the game in 17.

So then you were right...

Be prepared to bake. Was there last week. You’ll have your pick of seats in the stadium and almost everyone just sits under the awning.

You can also bring in your own food and beverages. Concessions are generally not open for GCL games.

GCL games are in fact free to attend.

Weds game, still no Adley. Usher said it’s TBD if he’s going to play in any games here.

Adley is atm hanging out in the bullpen at Ed Smith, so this is a real possibility.

Typo, meant Monday.

We’ll be in Sarasota next week. Always go to a GCL game when we’re down there. Will probably go to Sunday in hopes that rutschman plays. If not, will go back on Weds to see if he plays.

Who on earth goes into the draft as a RF? I thought everyone was usually a SS or CF who was drafted high.

That's like rooting for illiterate Yankees.
