I don't. I want the Damn Yankees at full health when the O's beat the piss out of them.

That's nice to say, but the vast majority of the time the side with 10x the resources will beat the piss out of the other team. I'm perfectly fine with the Yanks operating at 50%.

Remember, the Yanks had all kinds of issues last year between ARod and Rivera and Gardiner and others... and the O's still didn't beat them.

Kick em when they're up.

Kick em when they're down.

It doesn't matter a whole lot to me whether the Yankees are healthy or not, as long as we beat them in the end. Though, it would be significantly sweeter if they were healthy. Just imagine the media..."O's take advantage of Yankee injuries" "O's luck brings them success" "Jeter farted...oh, and the O's win the World Series"

They say you are not supposed to kick someone when they are down, that is the best time, they are that much closer to your foot.

I would imagine that if you could understand Morse code, a tap dancer would drive you crazy.

Bingo. Just look at the ALDS. All the naysayers and doubters didn't care that we took the Yanks to the full five games. All it was is that the Yanks were the better team all along etc etc.

I don't care about the credit anymore. As long as we pile up W's,let the media say what they want.

On the bright side, wrists are not very important for hitters and injuries like this tend not to have a lingering effect.

This is wonderful :D

So, last year's team, that beat us in five games in the ALDS, will be without:

Nick Swisher

Raul Ibanez

Russell Martin

AROD

And for the first two months of the season or so:

Curtis Granderson

Mark Teixeira

Excellent:smile11:

      Jordan Westburg 2024

      By Flash- bd · Posted

      Yeah, basically this, that Westburg's underlying numbers (EV, barrel %, xwOBA) seem to point at this being pretty real, or at least that there's nothing 'undeserved / lucky' about this hot streak, if it's just that.

      Off-season Qualifying Offer Question

      By Billy F-Face3 · Posted

      The problem with a Cowser/Kjerstad/Stowers/Bradfield outfield roster is there are no right handers to handle LHP. I don't think and completely left handed outfield is the destination for an organization the values versatility.

      Looks maybe concussion related.

      I have to admit. I'm an addict.

      How can you not be romantic about baseball? This seems slightly poetic. I enjoyed reading, and correlated your experience in the stands back to what I watch in Game 1 on MASN.  It was also pretty cool to hear Jim Palmer give you a shout out in Game 2 of the series on Live TV.

      Gunnar Henderson 2024

      By baltfan · Posted

      I am not worried.  It just doesn’t remotely meet the eye test.  He has been great in the field . I can think of at least 3 outstanding plays he has made and not any that I thought he should have gotten but didn’t. Meanwhile Holliday is 3 OAA and I can’t think of an outstanding play and can think of a number I thought he should have made.

      Nicely stated Roy. Every since I was 9 years old and saw the O's vs. the Tokyo Giants in Tokyo in 1971, I've been infected with the Orange/Black virus. There is no cure and I don't want one. You and I sat at the lunch table with Jim Palmer at the 1970 World Series Champs reunion, and its still one of my enduring baseball memories. You said I looked like Carlton Fisk! I was at all 3 games in this Angels series, right behind the O's dugout. I got to see all our boys, and just simply love to watch this team play. And in true baseball fashion, the one game on paper we should have dominated (GRod vs. 8+ ERA Channing), we end up down 7-0 and lose. But watching Gunnar's homers, his electric triple, and he made a fantastic play today on a ball that went under Westburg's glove, Adley do Adley things, Cowser, holy crap. Kimbrel v. Trout with bases loaded, bottom of 9th, 2 outs, down by 2? That was fun. Next game Trout bats leadoff and torches a GRod fastball for a homer to the opposite field.  An observation.... If you didn't know anything about the team, and you only watched game 1 batting practice, you'd think Cowser and O'Hearn were the studs of the team. Mountcastle was taking BP with the reserves and he put on a show as well.  Home after 3 straight days watching this O's team, so jealous of the Balt fans in Balt that get to see the team with regularity. It's a special bunch.
