  1. Apple TV+ offers a 7 day free trial. I'm ordering for tonight then cancelling immediately
  2. Risk vs. reward Seeing a Beatle vs. one of 81 baseball games. When I go I come in off I-95 onto Key Highway and come towards the stadiums from the Locust Point side. No need to deal with downtown except being in the park.
  3. I don't like the idea of trading Mullins at all. He may not be 30-30 this year but I still like what he brings to the table.
  4. Lack of hitting is the problem. However if the “problem” still allowed the Orioles to take 2 out of 3 from one of the best teams in baseball I’ll take it.
  5. I miss being able to park at Memorial Stadium on Upshire Rd off The Alameda for free and walking a few blocks.
  6. The split screen b.s. when the game is only as half screen for an interview is ridiculous. These announcers are the worst I have ever heard. They must be Boston homers.
  7. Is it ok that I am sick of all the current metrics?
  8. Never heard that one before. The new Elvis movie is pretty good by the way.
  9. Still a Jim Palmer guy. The line about "that pitch is ok if you want to throw the worst slider of all time" cracked me up.
  10. The Orioles should be putting an absolute premium on left handed hitters in the lineup from now on. Play to your home park a little. I don't post much but I've stated that I love the new wall. All these jacked up hitters for years hitting flyballs that had no business being HR's. I'd rather see more balls in play. Want a HR? Earn it.
  11. Anyone pick up on Kyle Bradish’s F-bomb in the post game interview?
  12. What did Zach Britton ever do for the Yankees? No issue. Bautista is the closer in waiting. Nothing against Lopez. 4 lottery tickets for someone with sky high era's until this year.
  13. Buster is a douche. No one knows how this trade will work out. Just some writer who probably never played the game.
  14. I'm calling them lottery tickets but you're right, probably a bit more that that. 4 pitchers with some promise for a guy who routinely had an ERA over 5 or 6. What has Zach Britton done since being shipped away? Ok with the deal. The Mancini one hurt a little but I understood it as well.
  15. Just chatting with a Twins fan. Thinks it was a fair deal. We do have lottery tickets but if one works out it will be fine. Lopez isn't guaranteed to continue this and the Orioles still have Bautista. O's got 4 players for a rule 5 guy. (I think he was anyway) Not bad.
  16. Pretty much agree in general. Let us know when you get a look at Povich and the other guys.
  17. Bautista is the next man up. Expected that for awhile now.
  18. It is not true or false. Just my opinion.
  19. To me no news is good news on the trade front. Let this play out since almost none of "our guys" will fetch much of a return. If anyone I'd move Lopez. Buy a SP in the offseason. Spend the money.
  20. No one knew at the time how the Ubaldo signing would turn out. It didn't work mostly. By all accounts he was a good guy and a good teammate from everything I read. Sometimes things don't go as expected.
  21. Too good for AAA not quite good enough for MLB roster. Played organized baseball from 1977 until 2018. Yes I am old. Thanks for the patronizing comment though.
  22. It is sad we are talking about so many AAAA and mediocre ballplayers to bring back for this "anniversary". To me, Adam Jones and Melvin Mora should be invited. Most of the rest = meh. Delmon Young would probably get a good ovation I think. Too soon for Davis. Let him count his money.
  23. I don't have any particular nostalgia for the 30th anniversary at Camden Yards. I love the ballpark, but until the Orioles win a championship there it is just a very nice building. My primary Orioles memories are all still from Memorial Stadium. Keep in mind I am almost 54 years old and I understand how younger people may feel more fond of Oriole Park than I do. Until they win, 30 years at Oriole Park is a yawn to me. Hopefully they make some REAL memories at the Yard soon. I was almost embarrassed when they celebrated a division championship with a ceremony there.
