The This Team IS Done, We are Dumb and Nothing can Fix it MEGA THREAD

[ledzepp8]

If you told me the sky is not blue and grass is not green, no I wouldnt be swayed no matter what you brought to the table. There has to be reason to be swayed.

You get that the sky isn't really blue don't you?

Weams has, unfortunately, been infected with the dreaded Firestone Condition where he thinks every new thread needs to start in Orioles Talk.

I do what I please. And I do it with ease.

[ledzepp8]

Orioles homers on here predicted 99-102 wins. Let that sink in for a 2nd.

Most delusional fanbase on the planet?

Cite this whopper or maybe stop making up crap.

A clear cloudless day-time sky is blue because molecules in the air scatter blue light from the sun more than they scatter red light. When we look towards the sun at sunset, we see red and orange colours because the blue light has been scattered out and away from the line of sight.

Anybody else think we should have signed Miller?

I would have loved to have had him. He was not coming here with Zach in the job. He was not taking a discount to stay in Baltimore. He did not match up well as our setup man since he is left handed. And trading Zach to sign him probably negates a lot of the upside.

The strongest rational to sign Miller would have been to keep him from the Yankees.

Probably worth 5 million a year there. But then they would have gotten Zach from whoever we traded him to.

Zack as set up man. Keep his arbitration rewards low.

The title of this thread should be shortened to "The Orioles are a black hole of Badness."

[Orioles0615]

Its not about the offense. Its the pitching. And with 3/5 of a rotation that had career years last year, they were going to regress, that plus an up and down bullpen doesnt equal many wins.

SO Seventh inning for Zach then. Got it. And O'Day-Hunter for the eighth.

Zach could go in the eight, would depend on the situation.

And Matusz would have been non-tendered.

Got it. Zach demoted, Made happy by his projected lower lifetime earnings. Made into a swiss army lefty. Sounds like a plan for real bullpen success. And I am not even really a a Zach fan. I was in NY last year.
