But you can't lose a trade. Just like if anyone picked after one of your draft picks has a better career your pick was wrong.

You strike me as the type. You more of an Imagine Dragons fan?

It's no Nickleback so I wouldn't expect you to be a fan.

I'm listening to Les Claypool cover Thela Hun Ginjeet while I recover.

It was bait, much like your post.

If Diaz isn't the prospect now that he was when Dan traded for him who does that fall on? Dan or Mike?

I think they've lost four in a row to the Phillies.

Don't they have the most difficult projected remaining schedule?

I'm too conservative to put as much weight on early season performance as they did this year.

I think we had one person that didn't like the top pick in 2019.

We know the father was willing to spend, even if he was uneven in his spending. We don't know that about the sons.

Sure, they had guys that weren't "effective". It isn't surprising they weren't effective at closing. You started off with the idea that a significant amount of effective set up men couldn't close. You appear to now be saying that poor relief pitchers can't close.

How many "effective" guys have they had? I emphasized the key word for you.

I think more can than can't.

He made a nice catch that Dwight Smith wouldn't have made. Not sure the catch probability of it, probably pretty high.

Have to say they are trying to mount a comeback.

Sure? But what difference if it makes if neither makes an impact at the ML level?

I'd be pleased with one run over five. Not three.

I don't have that type of power.

At some point you have to be able to get six out of Means.

Nice to see Means out there in the 6th. Hope he can finish strong. And he gets taken deep. No quality start for Means.

I specifically stated that he was age appropriate. But do you want "prospects" playing at the league age or do you want them young for their level? He also averaged over a strikeout a game at low A the year prior.

Ties what?

Oh like the O's can compete for International players like Wander Franco with the big market Rays.
