.....are right now. Best record in the AL since 2012. Best record in the AL so far this year. We have seen some great baseball for nearly five years now. We like to complain which I understand but don't forget to enjoy this. It's not going to last forever.

This is the best they've been in my lifetime. Trust me, I'm soaking this up and enjoying it

Not right now when I look at it. I see Orioles at .490, Yankess at .491, Rays at .494, Blue Jays at .532, Red Sox at .556.

When I posted that it had the O's at .491 and the Yankees at .490. Now they are both .490 and the Rays are all the way up to .503. It is all very scientific, I am sure.

Dolphins-Playoff-Towel.jpg

I have this towel, and this is what we need to do, Believe in now. Granted, the Dolphins lost to the Ravens that game, with Dolfans yelling at my father, in his Ray Lewis Jersey; that the Dolphins would kick the ravens asses and other horrible things. Those same people were reminded what they had said when Dolphins fans started leaving in the 2nd quarter, with dad yelling "Where you going?!?! I thought you guys were gonna kick our asses!!!" while flashing his Ray Lewis jersey at them. Good times.

Since when is DD in a hurry to leave? Yea I know what happened with the BJ's.

maybe it's some fans can't wait for him to leave. The team is doing good. I am

happy. Maybe this is the year the O's go to the WS and win.

Just feels like he's open to being poached. Had the whole Toronto thing and then the nats thing.

As for team, I agree. Maybe this is the year they do it.

That must have cut like a knife.

Changed earlier today. I'm sure the standard error around their projection is gigantic u till about ten days before the season ends. It's a goofy model.

Who's this team's Jim Palmer, a guy who will still be with the team well into his early 70's like Jim now. It's crazy to think how long Palmer has been with this org. I'm too young to have seen him play but Palmer is every bit an O's icon to my generation as those you who saw him pitch. And yeah I'm enjoying it. This has been the five years as a fan in my life.

      As of today, we have 3 lefties in the OF. He will have plenty of at bats here.  I wouldn't start him everyday persay but 350-450 at bats will be fine.

      For me, he’d be the 4th outfielder so he’d likely have to do both. He could spell all three of Mullins/Cowser/Kjerstad at any given time. I would argue positionally a RH OF might be out biggest need in fact, so if not O’Neil, someone else of that ilk.

      I would consider adding Tommy Pham in our McKenna/Slater role......he's a better bat and it pretty much guarantees that we'll be in the playoffs again.  He always gets there. Yes, I'm serious.

      Alonso would be the worst possible signing for us. All he does is hit for power, and even that might be waning, even before you stick him in Oriole Park with that LF wall. That is the hardest of passes.    Martinez is very meh. That dude is going to fall off a cliff at some point soon, I’d rather it not be while the Os are paying him.    Could get on board with O’Neill for sure, if the price is reasonable. Major upgrade over the Slater/Hays combo from 2024, if he could stay healthy.

      So, you would be okay putting him in left field, or a you thinking of him platooning in right with Kjerstad?

      A lot of good stuff here: https://www.sportsbusinessjournal.com/Articles/2024/10/07/mlb-orioles-rubenstein I particularly like the following quote: “I’ve written some big checks for Carlyle over the years, so we’ve put alot of money into deals and it’s not like I’m going to have a shock at the size of the dollars that might be involved,” he said. “The trick is getting the opportunity to do that.”

      Lot of great crowds at these games so far in fact (throwing stuff onto the field notwithstanding). Yankees crowd I must begrudgingly admit was pretty raucous you could hear drum beats, maybe the occasional horn, in addition to their usual annoying chanting and sound effects. Phillies always have great crowds. SD and LA turning it up a notch. Detroit and Mets and KC will almost certainly add to that list shortly. Makes it that much more fun to watch.
