I think LTT did this on a lark.

Shame she couldn't trust MLB to not censor her work. I still think she should have tried to write it but I can see why she wouldn't.

Don't make me post Steve Windwood.

Deep faking David Hasselhoff into every seat would have been prohibitively expensive.

I've been questioning their business model this whole time. But I'm probably wrong.

I know how they work but a full year? Sounds to me like they want to prop up their subscriber number.

That should be enough to get the O's through nine innings.

Interesting that the Athletic would do this.

How in the world can someone play their way onto the team during a two week skirmish of a spring training? He's facing Oriole pitching, of course he's going to look improved.

Evidently you pay even less attention to your posts than I do.

LOOGYS are dead right?

I don't know, everything you've been saying since Elias took over indicates to me that you would be heavily in favor of the progression I've outlined.

I guess you went as good at math as I have you credit for. 2020 wasted year. 23 2021 full "development" year in AAA. 24 2022 gamed service time year 25 2024 year 2- 26 2025 year 3- 27 2026 year 4- 28 2027 year 5 - 29 2028 year 6- 30 2029 year 7- 31 That's the plan you want to follow right?

I mean, great job with the math, you really nailed that one but how is that relevant?

But isn't it big picture to consider how much more development a player will have? No one wants to pay arb four prices for a 31 year old.

If there is a season in which you are going to deviate from your normal course of action it should be this one.

Nick Markakis, to this day, has never had even one hit in AAA.

Even if he faces a steep learning curve do you think any damage will be done to his development if he plays this year? Playing in the majors would have to be better than not playing at all right? Not like it makes a difference if his struggles hurts the team's chances at winning. Also, what do you mean he was demoted? How come I don't remember him being demoted? Are you sure it wasn't an injury rehab thing?

Now that officially no one else wants him the O's have a shot!

I'll have to find more youtube channels for you to watch.

Sure, if it doesn't cost anything.

It happened to me but not really. I tried to access another members message tab (just to see if I could, I wasn't prying I swear!) and mine came up instead. The whole board has been glitching these last couple of hours, with rep and posts appearing and disappearing.
