I'm glad for the win...but the pre-game handshake snub was BS. Edsall should suspend his three captains for one game each. (They're not going to beat Michigan State anyway)

I've never heard of a penalty for not shaking hands before. And not that I agree with what the Caps did at all, but PSU players seemed to be the ones jawing and chirping at Terps players during warmups and initiated that whole skirmish. That would be my guess for the whole no respect thing.

Emotions obviously ran high and those boys were definitely pumped up. I can see why everyone was so chippy.

To be fair it was really for Diggs shoving the ref in the face.

Really? That seems odd to me. Is there a film of that? It is hard for me to believe that a player that shoved an official in the face would not be disqualified from that game. Are you saying that he shoved an official and was not ejected?

There was the pre-game scrum and an official was trying to separate the players-

Diggs shoved the official inadvertently or so it appeared as other players were between Diggs and the official.

It wasn't that bad, but he still put his hands in a ref's face.

Wow. Ref looking right at him, too. I'm surprised that he wasn't disqualified.

Wow- I had only seen it in real or replay time and thought there was more of a 2 team scrum----thought it was less of a deal then this video.

      How should we look at FA contracts going forward?

      By Sports Guy · Posted

      I don’t see the point. By and large, I think these extensions are very overrated by fans. I think it gives you a nice, warm and fuzzy feeling that your favorite players are locked in but for the team, unless you are getting a big discount, they don’t make a ton of sense. For a pitcher, who you have for another 4 years after this one, I don’t see it making sense unless he’s signing for real cheap. (Ie, I’m getting 2 FA years for 25M a year or less) If I’m getting that, I do it. But I think GRod has TJ surgery sometime in the next 3 years, so I’m really wary about it.

      Who Should Be Extension Priority #1?

      By Bemorewins · Posted

      It's going to take a market deal at minimum and maybe even a record deal to entice them given who the agent is. But PLENTY of other young stars have extended. The Witt deal would be the comp/starting point for Gunnar.

      Exactly. I had this same internal dialogue today, actually. He could break over the next 5 years, or he could be worthy of extending. Either way, that's not a today problem. Just let him be for now.

      This is the kind of thing that drives me nuts about him. Every start it's like a totally different pitch mix. Or he'll get a K on a 96 mph heater up in the zone and you never see that pitch again. Or he has a guy 0-2 and chucks a random cutter down the middle. Like... throw a curve in the dirt man!

      This is a good question. IMO - You try with all 4 and see who's interested. Gunnar is obviously a superstar talent who is ascending at age 22. He already owns a sliver slugger and a ROY award. He also has Scott Boras for an agent. So I doubt there would be any discount on their end. Which is fine by me because we have a bilionaire owner, a growing/more engaged fanbase, who hasn't paid ANYONE in years. I.e. we should definitely have the money. I would love it if we did everything we could to make Gunnar an Oriole for at least the next 10 years. Adley is older at 25, but he arrived first. (If that matters?) Obviously at his position, you don't want to go as long with the deal. But he is closer to FA and the price will continue to go up. As the team leader, you would like for him to stick around. Burnes is probably the most valuable/most irreplaceable, in that he is the most rare commodity, an actual game #1 type starter, where no matter the matchup/opposing pitcher, we are never at a competitive disadvantage (plus he has experience). This is not to say that Grayson is not a budding ace in his own right. But you would like a few top notch pitchers to give yourself the best odds to go all the way in October. Burnes, (a healthy Bradish if such a thing is realistic), and Grayson ALONG with this lineup is a good recipe for post season success against ANY opponent (including the Dodgers or Braves). I would love to extend Holliday, but again the agent is Boras and the dad is a very wealthy former big leaguer, so there wil be no discounts there. I don't think it would be the best for team morale if we pursued an extension for Holliday first and bypassed Henderson and Rutschman. They are more accomplished players to this point. And it would be likely for them (if they were open to an extension) to harbor feelings of resentment with the rationale of "what has he done (Holliday) compared to me?"

      The way the blue chip FA contracts are going lately is that they're only 2-3 years at a time to keep up with market value. I'd spend our ownership's money at $50m/yr to keep Burnes for 2-3 more years. Let someone else pay him in 2027 or 2028.

      Haha I guess I see what I want to see. They did put up like 9 runs on the Red Sox in one inning with basically all singles, FWIW.
