What about the fistful of sunflower seeds that he keeps firing into the faces of home run hitters in the dugout? It's all fun and games until someone loses an eye or has a fistful of sunflower seeds embedded into their foreheads.

The Orioles record since Rickard went on the DL July 22, is 22-24.

And we have sank from 1st place to 3rd in our division.

Just sayin...:scratchchinhmm:

Does he have enough time on the ML roster that he can be sent down in ST?

I'm not certain that he does.

You don't think that thumb will heal by Opening Day?

Need to platoon someone with Kim.
