Did you hear him say that yourself? If so, was it audible on the TV broadcast or were you reading lips and that’s what it looked like he said? You can’t make that claim without having actual proof to support it. -
He wasn’t the only one -
They should refund the tickets for the games that *were* played given the quality of the product.

I just checked my Discover card balance for unrelated reasons, and I noticed that the refunds for my ALDS and ALCS tickets show up as "pending". Which means the Orioles have initiated the process of crediting me with the money, but it has not yet been applied to my balance by Discover. I am a Flex plan member who bought 4 tickets to a wild card game (which I attended), 4 tickets to an ALDS game, and 4 tickets to an ALCS game, the max that I was allowed to buy. And the amounts shown as pending are the full amounts I was initially charged, all fees included, so I am getting a complete refund to the penny. -
I absolutely would love to lose like in 1979 right now compared to being totally and utterly embarrassed and disgraced by getting swept out of the playoffs by two wild card teams. The only way for this core group to remove the stain of these sweeps, particularly this one against KC is to win the World Series. If they don't, they will be the Blue Jays 2.0. -
Maybe sometimes it's a bit of a talent to find those "nobodies playing out of their mind" vs going out and getting Eloy Jimenez. I get the numbers, but you know what, the winning Orioles teams of the late 70s and early 80s were always "lucky" too. They're numbers never suggested they should win yet they ended up in two World Series and won playoffs games every time they were in the playoffs. I get it, they numbers say the Tigers are lucky, and maybe they are, or maybe they do the little things that are not captured well in modern statistics.

I guess my main point is if the Tigers win something this year (like the AL or the WS) then yes, they're ahead of us. At the end of the day, the rebuild is to ultimately win the World Series. The fact that they can't even win a playoff game is a failure. Now, are we hopeful that the team will be in the mix again next year, sure, and depending on who they pick up pitching wise, I'd say we should expect them to be in the playoffs once again. But until this team wins something in the playoffs, all the noise about best farms system and young talent and just that, talk. At some point you have to put up or shut up.
