Which is why he is here and holding down a roster spot. Unfortunately some people have a dislike to him, and it cloud's their opinion.

LOL-Dude, come on. If Buck would just pitch him against lefties...but he doesn't. And he is awful against righties. The fact you think he is worthy of a roster spot is silly, particularly at his price tag.

We are entitled to our opinion and since Buck knows why more about baseball than I will ever begin to think I know.

I am not going to beat him up.

Again, you don't like him, you dont want him on the roster, and anybody that disagrees with you is silly.

I actually did like him, but after a while I don't want to see him pitch:) Nothing personal, he just can't get righties out.

If we're in it late July, then I suspect we'll look to get a bat and a reliever. That's pretty much what every contender does for the late season push. With all those relievers becoming FA's it should be a buyers market for them. I like the idea of Koji coming back. DD has always picked up guys. Wolf, Krod, Feldman, Norris, De Aza, K.Johnson, Miller, Morse, Saunders, Hundley.

A reliever would be pretty disappointing IMO. The Orioles have had to trade for relievers the last two years and it would just feel like a serious lack of planning.

Not sure, the Orioles had to trade for Miller. They had a pretty good bullpen last year, and the extra lights out arm was icing on the cake.

I do not see the Orioles as buyers, only as "not sellers." I think they still believe that they are going to roll to the AL East title with the current players with perhaps some tweaking here and there (and counting those who are soon to return, Gausman, Schoop, and the minor league contributors, Wright, Parmelee, Roe, etc. ) I do not think they will add any major part and certainly not an upper echelon pitching starter.

When the BJ's series is over we should ask ourselves what did we need to beat them? If it's nothing then we should stand pat.

I'll vote for a sniper with a tranquilizer gun to take out that dude who is always relaying stolen signs in.

      Elias: Hyde will be back

      I'm a big fan.  It doesn't mean I have sources in the clubhouse. Do we have any idea who her sources are?  Does she have any kind of track record of having reliable sources?

      I don't know who this woman is and I don't do Twitter. And this is what I touched on in the other thread: I don't know what the best path forward is b/c I don't know exactly what the problem is. I don't think Hyde needs to go, but if this is true- and I have no idea if it is or not- he should be gone. The talk of veteran leaders brings questions.  What was insufficient of the leadership of Satandaner, Mullins, Burnes, and Kimbrel?

      Sig for me is notably rigorous trying to combat this.    I feel pretty sure he had a say in crafting his very geeky title, a reflection of his personal brand. We'll see how it goes here if it becomes recommending Adam Frazier and Kyle Gibson as correct for the roster once again.

      Elias: It's on me

      Again, I'm not sure what the point of contention is. They won 91 games and lost in the Wildcard round.  That puts them smack in the middle of what I forecast as their most likely outcome, though I did hope for more playoff success.  I'm not sure how that is proof I misevaluated anything. Further, again, lecturing me about the importance of depth, when I'm one of the biggest hoarders on this board, and you're one of the biggest opposite of that, is ironic to say the least.

      Aaron Judge whined about it so I’m a fan.  The older I get, the more I think people just exist to look for confirmation biases. In all avenues of life. Paul Simon wrote “a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest.” I’m sure if we beat the Royals and advanced and Walltimore robbed three or four homers from the Royals, we’d be extolling its virtues and how great it is.    But that didn’t happen. If anything, there were a couple instances where, if anything, it worked against us.    So here we are.

      I mean I wouldn’t be concerned about her opinions on which FA to sign or which players are best. But, she’s definitely a big fan and is just passing off info given to her. If it didn’t track into some other things that make sense, I wouldn’t pay it much mind. Of course, someone with an agenda could’ve just told her those things to spread rumors. Maybe Rick Dempsey haha.

      Do you think any team is too stupid to account for home park dimensions when evaluating pitchers?
