  1. The way I see it is if you accumulate 896 at bats in AAA with an OPS of .869 the team doesn't think you're a prospect and the rest of the league isn't that excited about you either.
  2. Why? According to the MLB Market Score the Orioles are in the 23rd market. If they are the 23rd market why should they be ~15 in payroll?
  3. How did he revolutionize hitting? Ted Williams revolutionized hitting. Gwynn did it in an old school fashion and very few players after him chose to emulate him.
  4. Or the opposite, some poor bastards get IBS.
  5. He had a stupendous run at the start of last season. It was amazing to watch. But it was a burner. It is not who he is.
  6. Hey now! That Mountcastle walk was pretty nice.
  7. If Gunnar wants an MVP it's moments like this that sway the voters that aren't just looking at total WAR.
  8. He's almost at -1 rWAR. Something has to give at some point.
  9. I'm sure that must have happened. To warrant that type of comment.
  10. Is he going to be curing cancer and saving some puppies from a fire while getting a hit this at bat?
  11. I think they are saying that the number of HBP per season has risen sharply with the addition of the DH.
  12. They did change the rules to accommodate base stealing.
  13. He's totally better than any player not on the Orioles, Dodgers, Yankees, Astros or Royals.
  14. Andruw Jones is the obvious name that comes to mind.
  15. I wasn't just talking about the ballpark.
  16. I think if he stays in NY he has a decent chance of holding onto that OPS+.
  17. I'm a bit disappointed to miss him, he's fun to watch. (He's no Elly De La Cruz tho)
  18. This makes him easier to root for. https://www.thebaltimorebanner.com/sports/orioles-mlb/orioles-cole-irvin-barcs-donation-drive-adoption-event-83-seized-dogs-B4F26W3OQRH2BCZTNVKQFI7TQ4/
