The Spring Training Overreaction Thread

Miguel Gonzalez is the worst starting pitcher that the Orioles have had in the last 20 years.

That is a high bar considering that the O's had the guy with the worst season ever as a starter.

Thread title.

I'm aware of the thread title.

I wasn't questioning you choosing to say that, I was just showing how bad he would have to be.

The Orioles after finally winning a game get too cocky and too much partying. 15 hits and 10 walks but the pitchers looked crisp.Cookie Crisp or Coco.

I don't think they care.

Games cost more to air than reruns of sport center (or whatever they call programming).

It is not like you can opt out of MASN without opting out of the rest of your cable package.

They have very little incentive to improve programming.

If you get "Select" package on DirecTv it does not include MASN so there is definite ability to opt out.

El Toro and C Dub add pop to a moribund lineup and Vanimal was excitable! Kim laced a hit to right and showed some average ability at the LF post. Young hurlers hurled somewhat but Bundy was besmirched by Schoop and Rickard. Bundy was decent - not exactly crisp but ok. Harvey was wild and Garcia likewise. All in all a bad day pretty much. Gonzo was very hittable.

If you say so. I'm well out of the MASN sphere of influence.

That's the thing, the illegal sites provide all of those things. I use mlb.tv legally, but for out of market football and basketball I've been known to dabble. That being said, I would gladly pay a small fee (like the $19 a month on mlb) to see games that would be blacked out.

I guess I'm splitting hairs here, things seem to be trending towards simplicity and convenience on the Internet, and while the mlb is slow moving, at least they're going in the right direction.

Very True.

Sure are. And every other sports league. I acknowledged that in my first post.

From the Orioles' batters, yes.

From the Twins' batters, i want to see Quiver.

I'll settle for Special K.

[JLee2027]

I agree and I'm with you. Buck HAS to have a shorter starter lease this year.

[Bahama O's Fan]

I agree Roy, not worried yet, but coming close.

[connja]

I think Bud had a longer leash last year because he was so good the prior year. Same can not be said for Miguel. Unless something changes soon he won't make it north with the team.
