This would drive me nuts if MacPhail comes back in the same role. That said, its par for the course with this organization. Hell, Patton is afraid to even call Buck right now because he doesn't know who will be in what role and when. If no one sees an issue with that, then I'm speechless.

On some level the news that he's coming back, be it in the same role or a different one, wouldn't bother me nearly half as much as the fact that this should have been resolved months ago. But, as usual, the Orioles botch the whole thing by having Angelos drag it out and potentially change everything.

Would certainly seem like par for the course for this organization. In fact, how they are handling this entire situation is exactly why this organization is in the position it's currently in right now. Angelos has never made a definitive decision in his life without taking a long time to make the decisions.

I'm pretty sure all Orioles organization decisions are done in Old Entish ( And yes, that's pretty much the geekiest thing I've posted on here) ;)

    • Direction on the 90 degrees of the field.  
    • I was listening to a Fox Sports Radio broadcast (sorry, can't remember who it was). They put the teams into tiers. The O's were in the top tier along with the Yankees, Dodgers and Phillies. I don't know how long it's been that during the season, someone would have called us top tier. And to think, this is happening with two of our starters out for the year and Bradish and Kremer have spent time on the IL. We are doing this with Hays, Mullins, Urias and Santander starting the season on an extreme slump. We have done this with Mateo starting almost every day (which most people thought would be a horrible thing). We have done this with a bullpen that has been very inconsistent. Imagine if we get some of this stuff fixed and some people back to just playing to their career averages. 
    • I'm not sure what we are doing with Vieira. I figured the trade was about the prospect and they had to take him and his salary to make it happen. I expected him to be DFA right away and they would try to send him to the minors to work on him. 
    • What would differentiate them? 
    • Btw, in the 4 game series against the Jays last year (July 31-Aug. 3rd), it is insane that Mountcastle hit for an .846(!) avg with an OPS of 1.932!  
    • Vieira doesn’t have options.
