Man, they really are suffering for vendors to buy commercial space on Gameday Audio, aren't they?? I've barely heard a commercial tonight, nothing but "during this break in the action..." and Jeter hitting his walk off single against us in his last AB. I think they have Raul Ibanez hitting his walk off homer against us too. Basically it's "during this break in the action, listen to some of the worst lowlights in recent Orioles history."

Oh and they also have Josh Hamilton's four homer game in there too. Those three lowlights for the O's overshadow things like Hank Aaron's home run tie breaker and several World Series walk off wins.

    • Turned out to be a pretty good post too lol
    • Offense is down across MLB.  Some people are living in the past re their expectations. 
    • #1 is Gunnar, and it isn't even close.   He appears to be a MVP candidate and could be for the next 10 years.   Lock him up if he's willing.  Big gap #2 is Westburg.  He's a gritty, hardnosed, excellent player who I think we could lock up at a decent price.  Not being a highly touted as Gunnar and Adley I think it's possible a more team friendly deal could be obtained.   He's a solid rock that along with Gunnar could anchor our team for a while.  HUGE gap #3 Holiday.  While his mlb experience was a SSS, it had made me slightly gun shy on extending him.   I still think he'll be fine,  but my expectations have been slightly tempered.  I certainly would not offer what I may have offered in the spring.   Doubt he accepts what I'd be willing to offer at this point.  #4 Adley.  I love the man.   I love how he plays the game,  I love his bat and his baseball makeup.  I don't love his arm accuracy or his pitch calling at times.   But more importantly I don't love the fact that he'll be a catcher in his 30s for most of any extension.  And with some of the talent coming up,  I'm not sure we need an expensive DH/1st baseman type.  Catchers usually age quickly, and while he might pull a Tom Brady and play forever at a high level,  the odds are against it.  I'd extend him,  but only for a short extension,  even if the AV was a bit higher.   #5 Burnes only for a short extension,  3-4 years max.   He's great,  and just what we needed.   And I'd pay high for those 3 years.   But I don't think I'd want to be on the hook for 8 years with any pitcher right now given the injuries lately.  Burnes has been incredibly durable, but so were other pitchers until suddenly they weren't.  #6 everyone else.   Don't want to extend anyone else really.   The pitchers are too volatile and injury prone, the other position players are too flawed (Mullins, Hays, Santander) or too young (Mayo, etc).  
    • A rotation of Bradish, Rodriquez, and Kremer is a solid core.    id love them to resign Burnes. And a decision will need to be made on Means as he’s nearing free agency as well.    I suspect they will find an alternative thats quality if Burnes walks.    I suspect Means because of his medical history is signed cheap or leaves. I’m guessing we can count on one of the AAA guys to be ready soon. 
    • Stowers better get 2 hits or he might get sent down.     
    • I like this lineup tonight and good to see Stowers get a start in RF.
