You aren't new here, no one believes that. But here you go, a link to the Board Rules and Policies. Shocked you haven't read them yet.

Bro, was just trying to give you some advice on proper decorum.

That's no longer an acceptable term. Unless you are talking about a car's timing.

It could be Hyde is worried about him being able to handle the wall i guess...

Using an opener in 2023 isn't cutting edge. Anyway this is probably just a bullpen game and not an "opener" start.

It's a Buck level defense.

I don't think he's a better defender than mcKenna.

My guess is the hold up is Angelos trying to get as little oversight as possible in how the money is spent.

That's always a risk when someone clicks one of my music links. Hopefully your taste in music will improve over time and you will eventually be able to properly appreciate their pure pop goodness. You really should have hung in there until the 25 seconds mark but it's OK, some folks aren't known for their stamina.

Line drives are mentioned. I did not want to directly copy a wall of text.

It's going to come down to money. If the money isn't there it doesn't make any difference. For most guys that's going to be a down the line concern after money, years, city, team competitiveness... it probably ranks in there with local weather.

First off it's Tilly and the Wall Secondly, no, paying them will help them land a big time SP.

https://blogs.fangraphs.com/how-have-the-new-rules-changed-the-game/ That despite P/PA and PA/G being very close to unchanged. More stolen base attempts and highest success rate of all time Pitch violations are overall not impactful. I didn't think getting rid of the shift would make a big difference, folks will just notice when a ball drops that wouldn't with a shift.

I'm sure the 24 hours Hicks has been in the system is plenty of time to straighten out his issues.

They have him throwing fewer innings and working out more to try and rebuild his fastball velocity.

That's the kid they had playing in big league camp right? Catcher?

More like a guy you dump when he hits arb2.

Remember early in the season when the O's were the most "clutch" team in baseball? Good times.

I thought Givens was Da' Load?

It seems as if Hyde is just looking for a reason to get his big two in the game.

Oh it's great for that. Lots of really desperate folks hang out at Dollar store. They tend not to be picky or have high expectations.

It's like Funko Pops. They are just supposed to sit there on the shelf in their original packaging.

I gotta say the Dollar General is not where I go to scope out the pretty ladies.

Back from the Dollar General. Can't you read?
