I'm not trying to change the subject of this thread, honestly I am not, but the Jonathan Schoop reference reminded me of something and I wanted to ask. Didn't he (Jonathan) take some kind of money up front from a company (I want to say 90 mill or something but that doesn't seem right), in return for all or part of his future earnings, around his last year or two with the O's? For some reason I am remembering that. I hope I am not completely wrong. If he did take more than 50 mill then he seems to have made a pretty good deal.

Earl was so right about bunting, there are so many things that can go wrong, it is rarely worth it. Edited to add that I didn't mind the attempt here as there were no outs and two runners would advance, it was the horrible execution. Just hard to watch when the offense is struggling like it is.

Gunnar!!!!!

Let him swing on 3-0.

Whoa, Ryan wanted to swing at that last low pitch so bad...lol.

A gift. Throw another one now.

Nice at bat.

One swing now.

Lots of very mediocre pitchers do it seems.

Yep.

Heads up play by Pham to go back to first. Ryan should have made him commit to second before throwing, though.

Now look in their dugout, Wells.

How the hell did tjhat happen?

Damn. Hit that hard.

While they're at it can they make them with a little thicker material and not so skin tight. These kids nowadays wear t-shirts that are thin, tight & stretchy. Good grief.

Yeah, it really looked like that to me also.

I would not.

Glad he's safe, but if that were called against us I would be livid. He wasn't blocking the plate when Adley got close imo.

I hate the Blue Jays more than I hate the Yankees. And that's saying something...lol.

Not sure what he's complaining about. It looked like a strike. You certainly don't bail out in that situation.

No more Vavra, please.

Yes. He is washed up. We Should have taken that Georgia Tech catcher with the advanced interview skills.

No need to worry about his arm strength...lol.

Rougie hits a lot of really hard foul balls down the line.

Man, I really hope RM figures it out in a big way because his raw power is intoxicating sometimes.
