Batman's going to jail.

Mark Harvey, who gained brief notoriety for running onto the field at both Camden Yards and M&T Bank Stadium, pleaded guilty to two trespassing counts Wednesday and received a short stay in jail.

Reached by phone, Harvey, 26, said he will be able to spend Christmas and New Year's Day as a free man but will have to turn himself in Jan. 4 to serve his sentence. The stay will likely be brief: all but four days of a 180 sentence were suspended and Harvey already served two days at the time of his arrests.

Let's hope things are different in Maryland than they are in California and he serves a significant part of his sentence. In Southern California a non-violent crime such as this one can result in release in as little as 24 hours due to overcrowding in the jails.

A significant part of the two days he has remaining?

Yeah, not that I would be eager to spend two days in jail, but it seems like this is mostly just a deterrent against him ever running onto the field again. I would assume that if there's another offense, the remaining 176 days would quickly get unsuspended.

Seriously? Man, some people are high strung. This guy should have to pay some type of penalty, I don't think serving his WHOLE sentence is part of it.

Hmmm, I misread the story. I thought it said he had served 4 days of a 180 day sentence, but it clearly says all but 4 days have been suspended. I wonder if that addresses my overall point nonetheless. In any case, a 4-day jail sentence isn't going to serve as a sufficient deterrent to this kind of behavior IMO.

I agree, they need to drop the hammer on one of these yahoos in a very public way.

Oh wow, Nevermind. I read it wrong too! Yeah, i agree. 4 days isn't too bad.

      Hyde: No Idea if Suarez Will Be Back

      By Sports Guy · Posted

      This posts wreaks of someone who has no idea what the cost of relievers are nowadays. Which is, of course, no surprise that you aren’t informed. Now that said, I don’t have an issue if you take someone out..I asked that very question. Who do you take out or what do you not acquire in favor of keeping Suarez?

      You always have room for another high leverage guy.  And Akin has an option left according to FG.

      Yea.  I feel the same way.  I really do not care strongly one way or another.  Sure, I think it's kind of ugly.  I also think HR's came pretty cheap before.  I like the exciting defensive plays it fosters and of course the random triple & odd carom make for some fun and unique moments.  But I don't think it helps or hurts the team in any substantial way short of helping out the pitching a little.   I sure don't think the players are changing their approaches.  If they keep it as is, that's fine with me.  If they modify it some way, that's fine with me as well.  It does seem like there is some opportunity for some unique seats down there by modifying it slightly.  When I first saw it, it almost appeared like a construction Phase 1.  That might be reasoning for pushing it back so far, allows them some flexibility in the future.   I also don't buy that a Free Agent RH hitter is going to care at all about the wall.   They are getting paid regardless.  I'd think that 1-maximizing payday 2-playing for a winner 3-finding a location that suits your family would be your priorities and your long-term stat line would be very close to the bottom of your list of concerns.

      Any updates on the renovations to OPACY?

      By SteveA · Posted

      Yeah but if you think most of this money is going to upgrade things that are wrong or need improving, such as the ones @accinfo lists, I think you'll be disappointed.   They will be for new features, each one designed to create revenue via premium seating or premium "experience" areas or attractions that bring non baseball fans to the park to spend or sports betting related things. I'm not saying they won't fix some basic things that need it like upgrading the sound system or improving the point of sale technology.   I'm sure they will.   But the focus is going to be on the new attractions which are all designed with revenue enhancement in mind.

      Who will pay Burnes $400M this offseason?

      By Roll Tide · Posted

      I’m not a lawyer … perhaps @Frobbymight know. Loss of income, future revenues? Damage to their franchise….Even with MASN the Orioles lost a ton on annual tv revenues

      2024 Week 5: Ravens @ Bengals

      By Aglets · Posted

      Congrats to the offense on playing a heck of a game. Lamar was incredible to watch, especially the play when the snap ended up on the ground and he had to run away towards the sideline and still found Likely for the score. It's very frustrating to me that the offense HAD to play so well because of the poor coaching and abysmal defensive play.  It's odd to me that Harbaugh still messes up timeout usage after being a coach in the league for over 15 years.
