I go to the Oriole section first but from that point forward I just use the New Posts button which shows all threads with new posts regardless of which board they are on. Often I don't even know or care what particular board a post I am reading or responding to is on,

Just a thought. Just one guy's opinion. I still love the board of course, just dropping an idea.

Yeah, I wish the Orioles and MLB sections were merged. I find myself coming here les because I want regular baseball news and usually go to a different spot for that then just come here for Orioles-only news.

I don't think it is unreasonable to have all the MLB together, it would encourage discussion and better analysis. There simply isn't enough discussion in the mlb-only forum.

I think folks should put threads where they belong. If you want to see news on the Orioles you go to Orioles talk. If you want to read about the Yanks acquiring Brandon McCarthy you go to MLB news.

If everyone (except Roy) put stuff where it belonged it wouldn't be a problem.

As your signature reminds us (you can turn that off via settings), you use tapatalk. Just browse by timeline. Problem solved.

Whoa! Didn't see that coming. But then again, maybe if I followed the Yankees more closely I would have.

So the trade looks to be McCarthy straight up for Vidal Nuno.

I always click on the What's New tab. That way you can see new posts from every section.

That's where it belongs but a lot of people never even look at the section. I don't go over there nearly as much as here, myself. I thought this was the best place, for now, for the most people to see it.
And if this was any other team but the Yankees making this move would it get much notice? Or should it? I doubt it. He has been a below average pitcher for the D'Backs the past two seasons and was traded for the Yankees #4 SP.

Wow, I didn't realize he'd been that bad. Hardly an upgrade from Nuno.

That was the point of my responses. And why I see this as Orioles relevant for the hour. Why did the Yankees do this? Why do people think it is a great trade for them?

      I'm far from a swing expert,  but I really feel that swing is going to translate incredibly well to big league pitching.  His hands are quick as hell, compact when slapping gappers, and extends just enough when he launches missiles out of AAA stadiums.  You don't see that with big guys often.

      Basallo for Miller y/n?

      By Can_of_corn · Posted

      To say that Miller has had a significant arm injury would be, to me, the same as saying Bradish has had a significant arm injury. Would you agree?

      Mullins is a CF, Miller is a closer who has already had a significant arm injury. The two are not equivalent.  Basically they would want to trade him (given the high probability of pitcher’s injuries) if/before something happens to him.

      Is Hyde/Sigbot burying another prospect?

      By KojiSplit · Posted

      I’d like to see Kjerstad start tomorrow with righty Hunter Greene on the mound. Kjerstad started for Santander Wednesday so pretty much no chance Santander gets another day of rest this fast so I could see a scenario where Kjerstad plays for Cowser who has been ice cold the past week+ both offensively and defensively. Reds have a small park so it’s not as if Kjerstad would have to cover a ton of extra ground if he was to start in left.

      Yeah that's a good point about trading Miller for as much as possible -- implying quantity as well as quality.  What if the A's trade for Basallo and he turns out to be as mediocre as the start to this season?  The O's will probably trade more players if they don't have to trade one of Mayo or Basallo, and as deep as our farm system is quantity and quality should be able to be had together.  But if the A's ask for one of the top 3 guys they have to accept they won't get much of anyone else -- if anyone else.  More players from a deep system increases the chance of multiple quality players. Defense is important to everyone.  I can't remember the last time the O's had so many good hitting prospects with such questionable defense.  But there were many years I was not paying attention, so maybe it's not such a new thing.

      The age is a problem for the A’s because they are not ready to win now and he is already at his prime years. This is the whole reason that they would be reading a 25 yr old Miller. The future is what they are building toward.
