  1. I've said from the start that the farm Elias inherited wasn't a total wasteland devoid of talent. Nice to hear him giving his predecessors some credit.
  2. Why did Elias bring him back and deposit him into the pen? Hyde has to use what's he got to use.
  3. Careful I said we was streaky and got snark the next day when he hit a dong. Santander isn't on the safe to criticize list.
  4. I get it. Folks remember how the Red Sox and Yankee teams from 20 years ago used to work the count against the O's pitchers who didn't throw strikes.
  5. And lower the chances of the O's having successful at bats. Is that a deal you want to make?
  6. The Rays broadcast is really good. The pitcher they are facing has a very low walk rate and a high first strike percentage. Should the Oriole hitters just start every at bat 0-1?
  7. Would you rather owe someone 10 bucks now and 20 bucks a year from now or the reverse? Future money is worth less than present money. Not only does inflation factor in but you lose whatever opportunity you might have to grow that money.
  8. That would just increase the cost for the team.
  9. The cold beer is $24 bucks. The $22 beer is served warm.
  10. And yet Boras clients have signed extensions.
  11. At the very least he's going to get a nice raise for next year.
  12. Just a couple of weeks ago he decided to announce to the media how hard it would be to extend guys.
  13. And his own reticence to make more highly touted prospects variable. Ofttimes teams are willing to eat payroll for more highly regarded prospects.
  14. Calling it now. Gunnar is on the cover of MLB The Show 24.
  15. The Rays under current ownership have been signing guys since Longoria.
  16. I don't drink. I don't think you should suggest others drink without knowing their history.
  17. You asked who else they had extended. I gave you that information. Not sure why you are busy now coming up with reasons why those guys shouldn't count.
  18. No one is going to legit hit the warehouse. If it hasn't happened yet, odds are really good it never will.
  19. If you read the piece it mentioned three players. Also, extending guys past arbitration is extending guys past arbitration in my book. It's sure more than the O's have been willing to do.
