Not at OPACY... What are you doing for Opening Day?

Live in North Carolina and during the winter I built this cabinet to house a tv and directv box. Looks like the dog and I will be spending many a summer night hanging out on the patio.

I'm definitely curious to see what you have there. Try to post it again but from the web (rather than a private inbox view).

Here's a link to view it. http://www2.snapfish.com/snapfish/slideshow/AlbumID=13102749013/PictureID=710913054013/a=94876769_94876769/otsc=SHR/otsi=SPIClink/COBRAND_NAME=snapfish/

I used caulk to waterproof the cabinet as well as added weatherstripping around the door. Has worked out really well so far!

NICE.

My brother lives in Worton and he regularly watches the games outside - projects it onto a sheet - with a firepit going. I am jealous to live so far away from that.

Watching tv outdoors is the way to go!

I'm sure quite a few Hangouters will be at the Yards tomorrow for Opening Day, but what are your plans if you don't live anywhere near Baltimore or just don't have tickets to the game?

MLB.tv via AppleTV in the house here in Boulder City, Nevada while the wind blows and the sun shines outside.

Might enjoy an early refreshing adult beverage if things go well!

I'm in Louisville, KY. Taking the afternoon off to watch the game at home with a small crowd of Marylanders in exile--crab cakes, hot dogs and beer on the menu. Even better: it's my 5-year old son's Spring Break just this week, so he'll be with us to enjoy it all, decked out in O's gear. He's already predicted a Chris Davis HR and we'll all be cheering really loudly when that happens.

Just a half-day of work... Enjoying the game with Maryland friends and my son... And kicking the RSux's behinds... Could life be any better? ;)

Unfortunately, I was at work until 5:00 and by the time I got home (about 5:45), the game was almost over. I got to see about an inning's worth of play (bottom of the 8th and top of the 9th). It's great to be 1-0!

    • Still with a chance to do this for the first time since 1982-83. Would be one more nice accomplishment for this organization. 
    • The weird thing about our bullpen is that they rarely blow leads.   They have a 69% save rate, 4th highest in baseball.  They make it scary, but generally, when they have the lead, they get the job done.   Where they are really bad is keeping games close when we’re down a run or two, last night being a classic example of that.   This year’s team has 32 comeback wins, compared to 48 last year.   Why is that?   Part of it is obviously on the offense, but part of it is that the bullpen doesn’t keep us in striking distance when we’re behind.   One way you can tell this is by the W/L records of the starters and the bullpen.  Last year, the starters were 57-40, this year they’re 60-49.   The starter got the decision 12 more times this year than last year, including 9 more losses (with 3 games to play).   That tells you that when the team is losing when the starter is pulled, they keep losing.  Meanwhile, the relievers were 44-21 last year, 28-22 now. They’re not picking up wins because they don’t give the offense a chance to catch up and get the win for the bullpen guy.    
    • I do not disagree with above posts.  Also I am pretty sure that this time last season, the Texas Rangers Hangout was saying the exact same things as the Rangers Pen.  Point being, you never know until you know.  The pen is shaky, but is capable of putting together a solid run from time to time.  
    • Roster Resource thinks it has tonight's lineup and Kjerstad on bench again. He is 7 AB shy of 130 MLB regular season AB with 3 games left, and if he ends up short some prospect list makers may still label him one.    If still with the Orioles, he will be 26 years old by Sarasota. I think the OP has its answer as it has been Cole and Lopez these two nights and the team is preparing for that intensity.
    • I care I bet the over on 88 wins, looked like a lock now not so much, come on O’s, daddy needs some new shoes
    • I’d have brought up Young immediately after DFAing Kimbrel. Baker has no place on this club this year. Would have been nice to see Young up here.
    • Yeah, but they could've brought him up a month ago and seen what they might have...And Im not "pining" for Brandon Young, just wondering if he's any better than some we have in the pen..
