This is my ideal scenario for pitching if no trades are mad for a dominate back-end guy. Starters: Burns Bradish G-Rod Means Kreamer Bullpen: Long Reliever: Irvin MR (low leverage): Kimbrel MR: Akin/Perez (Lefty's) MR: Webb MR High Leverage Back End Rotation (high leverage, SU, CL): Cano, Coulombe, Wells & Suarez Obviously there will be a short leash on Kimbrel until he gives us no other option. I would love to land that closer out of Oakland but I'm not sure how much I would be willing to give up without an extension on the table.

I honestly love the crew we have right now. When I heard about the ownership change I immediately thought "extend Kevin Brown" (after last years debacle). I think he is one of the better young commentator in the sport.

Bring in Delmon Young to kick off some Orioles playoff magic!

Ended up getting section 334 row 25 (all the way up) at $220 per ticket for game 2 of the ALDS.

I was wondering the same thing. How long does it take before they make a press release? Hyde did say something along the lines of he hopes it feels better tomorrow

Agreed. Our style of play this year only works if you have an elite thrower to close out games.

Such a bummer. Hoping we all wake up to good news but I'm doubtful. Everyone's mood in the post game interviews leads me to believe its something serious

That's because he's old and not part of our future plans. If we throw his arm out in the process then no harm no foul. Jack F. and Kyle B are locks for the playoff rotation. If Grayson can keep up the pace he's been on since his return, he would be the top candidate for the 3rd slot. If not its Dean by default. I like Gibson but he was brought in to play the veteran leadership/innings eater role, not to put the ball in his hands in the most crucial moment. At this point he has not done enough to prove otherwise.

Hahahaha that has to be staged right??

I have a 16-person suite booked with close friends and family for the Saturday July 1st game against the Twins. At this game I plan on purposing to my girlfriend and was wondering if anyone knew the best way to get the proposal on the big screen? If anyone could put me in contact or give me contact info for someone who might be able to help out, I would be more than grateful. Also, if anyone has any ideas on how I should go about the proposal, I'm all ears. My initial plan was to purpose in the statue yard with friends and family looking on from the left center club level corridor, but I believe there is a small tree in the way blocking the view. Plan number 2 is to purpose behind home plate while posing for a "picture" but I'm still undecided. PLEASE HELP! Go O's!!! PS. If this is in the wrong forum, I apologize, feel free to remove as needed.

I'll be there Saturday. Is there any good tailgating spots? I'm looking to get there early

That last 3 game home series against Toronto is going to be insane. Get your tickets now.

What is the latest on Wells returning?

I agree but do you guys honestly think we will go out and get 4-5 guys better than Lyles this offseason? Grayson is just now getting back to work, the timetable for a Means return is still unclear and Hall may need some time pitching from the pen to get his legs under him. I know Elias said they plan on spending some money this offseason but I don't see us spending for more than 2, 2-4 rotational guys. Plus Lyles eating up innings is a big reason our pen has seen a major uptick this year.

Another O's win Yankees loss. Side note: can anyone explain to me why Baker got the W last night instead of Bradish?
