Lew had a day off today.

You know those old guys.

[crowmst3k!]

Just give up already, Lew. You don't have any friends. Nobody likes you.

Pretty cool Twitter from Lew. In all seriousness, I gotta root for him to make the roster.

Lew has the "want to" Buck talks about, Hustles, can steal a base, and fill in OF. If he can "be ready" in a back-up role (a learning experience), I put him on OD roster (w/Steve Johnson - another "want to" guy.) Youngsters go to minors and "earn their way" here.

If you have to dump/ship them both out in May, June... to make way for the next Manny or Gausman/Bundy.... So what? Saved a year of arbitration, and made kids "earn position."

Steve J. and Lew have shown the "Oriole way" of old. That kind of stuff stays around and is contageous.... Sorry if dome folks disagree! (Not really)

Oh, he'll be ready, alright. Lew would shine the other 24 players' shoes if that's what it took to make the team.

2-for-3 with 2 doubles today, both off of J.A. Happ.

He was able to get his batting average back up to .500.

I don't care what he does at the plate or in the field he's a cancer.

Do Not Want :angryfire:

Mark Viviano said on Wall to Wall today that he see a scenario where Lew Ford makes the team, particularly if Nick isn't ready. He seemed to imply Nick may not be ready for a bit.

That is my opinion as well.

That is my opinion as well.

Two weeks with a rehab assignment?
