  1. Wildcard quoted Weams, Weams didn't mention a substance. He just said PEDs.
  2. I'm pretty sure if a gritty underdog (Roberts, Wilkerson) or a fat man (Colon) uses PEDs it's OK.
  3. You might want to look into why. Maybe something to discuss with your therapists?
  4. You lost me at we all like each other.
  5. Mickey Rivers career wRC+ 106 Cedric Mullins career wRC+ 57
  6. It isn't that simple. I remember a player who had a child with a serious illness and they didn't have enough service time for the child to be covered so they were torn between paying a huge amount for insurance or hoping they could latch onto a ML team for enough games to get fully insured.
  7. One of these things is not like the others. One of these things is not the same.
  8. No not sure how it is very clear when the official stance of the team is that Elias has total control. Now do I believe it's ownership meddling? Yes, but it isn't very clear.
  9. Fourteen games, he counts.
  10. I'm not sure he barely missed. According to the piece he was the highest ranked Oriole that didn't make the list. That could put him at 101 or 150.
  11. The fact that the rest of the round has accumulated negative WAR. Not that difficult to figure out. 11 + X =10 X=-1
  12. 800k. No idea what you mean by a weak class. He went 65th.
  13. Just get him some pine tar for that spin rate.
  14. I'm expecting an Oriole prospect penalty. Maybe 10 spot deduction.
  15. Maybe. If he's worth paying arb 4 money for. If he isn't traded. If the next CBA doesn't change things. If he's still in baseball. If he doesn't sign an extension. A lot of the time you would just end up getting the extra month.
  16. I agree it might not. I just think the chances that gaming his service time makes an appreciable difference is so low that it was the better choice to call him up.
  17. A month working with ML position coaches to get him more acclimated at both first and left field. A chance to see ML pitching and maybe have a light bulb go off about his approach? We all heard how useful Means' exposure to the majors in 2018 was. Seems to me that's more valuable than the maybe nothing to be gained by gaming his clock.
  18. From the sun: https://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/orioles/bs-sp-orioles-mike-elias-20181116-story.html That is what we were explicitly told.
