Orioles scouts are now banned from Korean baseball stadiums

[MrOrange82]

Sure...but it was in front of Koreans, so it doesn't really count...much like our many embarrassing losses in Toronto.

I feel like comparing anything to Canada is a cheap shot (or a "goon's wrister," as those floppy-headed northerners might say).

So we got black listed by an entire country because we grabbed up a guy who can't even play baseball? Insanity, only the Orioles could pull something like this off.

Well, the Tweets almost certainly don't tell the whole story. Like how the O's scouts spent three hours at every ballpark demanding "jagerbombs" before puking in a variety of previously pristine women's restrooms.

I can't believe we did this.

Well on the bright side this might spur the Orioles to hire some new scouts considering the KBA only knows the faces of the current ones...

I'm just gonna come out and say it. DD's decision making scares the crap out of me.

[BohSoHard]

Has there been any word from DD disputing this? Orioles singled out to be blacklisted but no other organization has done this? hmm

The Orioles are like an awful 80s comedy about kids feuding at a snooty ski resort.

How anyone could want to trade AJ is beyond me. His game is so...thrilling.

I guess I'll be one to defend the organization and say this seems like quite the overreaction from the KBA. Maybe some conversations have occurred behind closed doors, but if you're not happy with the way the O's went about things, seems like you could take some steps before outright banning their scouts.

Seems like a pretty big fuss over a kid who is "not even a prospect"...

[Takos]

I wish the O's would hire me as a scout here in Japan...I'd love to do that kind of work.
