vs. BLUE JAYS, 4/10 (Home Opener)

[Monsieur Jones]

So throw away $13M just like that?

Well it's not the best business decision. O's fans will show up and support the team regardless.

But yes, replacing crappy pitchers with better ones would help them win more games.

t's one thing to suck and keep on sucking. It's a different thing to suddenly not suck for one game. That being said, I'm pretty sure you cut and pasted this comment without even thinking. Just a natural reflex perhaps that you've developed over time?

Since 2013, when has Norris "sucked and kept on sucking?"

[Tony-OH]

Wright's fastball was 84-86 MPH in that inning.. What the....

[Monsieur Jones]

Uhhhh.... I did just as much thinking with my post as you did yours. You consider Buds last season a disappointment? Because I'm sure even you could agree(I hope) that last season Bud didn't "suck and keep sucking".

I'm not a fan of either pitcher. I'd like both to be off of the team. My cut and paste comment is because I'm fairly sure I saw a very similar kershaw-type comment on these boards yesterday.

And there was no fa that was out there that was better then what we had. Cruz wanted big money and who needs a 30 y/o plus slap hitter with no speed?

The Blue Jays traded for Josh Donaldson

Bud Norris' career ERA is 4.60. That doesn't impress me. His ERA was consistently above 4 every season (6 consecutive) until last season when he notched a 3.7 ERA. Then he has a horrible spring and follows it up with this stinker.

I'm not a fan.

It's okay, the Orioles' $50 million 5th starter will stop the bleeding tomorrow:thumbsup1:

Jones 4-4

[MrOrange82]

I like our guys.

Today, I'm more fond of the fact that I sold my tickets for a significant profit. Yuck.

2-run home run from crush coming up!

I get not being a fan of a guy but ignoring his 2014 season seems a little silly.

How is that any different than Jimenez, who the Orioles were dumb enough to overpay? That said, Bud Norris has been a good pitcher for the past few seasons and I think he will bounce back this year b/c he has pretty good stuff and he is in his FA year. Spring Training literally does not mean anything and no offense to use but I hate it when people use it to support their argument.

[Crazysilver03]

Davis has missed two home runs by 2 feet combined.

[gmelson26]

Man he JUST missed 2 HRs now...

[O's84]

At least Chris Davis got a couple of hits today.
