Oh man.  A few weeks ago I spent about 3 hours on YouTube watching "pack breaks" of old baseball cards which were almost always wildly disappointing.  Very similar to this, people just opening packs of old baseball cards.  I think the coolest one I saw was someone getting a late 60s Mickey Mantle.  While they were mostly dissapointing they were kinda cool to watch though.

But this is a great take on it.  Buck reminiscing about players that he had through these baseball cards.  Found it interesting that he said everyone loved Deion Sanders and that he was a great teammate.

This is great.  
"What did John Kruk order at Taco Bell?"
Buck: "A little bit of everything."  

And I like how when offered a Steve Sax card, Buck pushed it away. Twice. 

Fantastic. We are so fortunate to have had his prime.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      By casadeozo · Posted

      Crochet had a monstrous game tonight. 7 IP 2 H 1 ER 2 BB 13 Ks I would love to have him even if it meant moving him to the bullpen for the final stretch but someone is gonna drastically overpay for him with top of rotation potential and 2x additional seasons of club control.    assuming it starts with Mayo, Kjerstad, Povich etc

      I would like to see the O's have more success drafting and developing their own pitchers under Elias.  But I must concede that so far Elias has an excellent track record of getting good young controllable pitching from other teams farm systems  (Bradish, Povich, McDermott, Cano) or the waiver wire (Suarez, Webb, Perez).   The development of these pitchers suggests that we have excellent coaching in the high minors and in the majors.  There's more than one way to skin a cat. At this point I don't see a need to trade farm system capital for a top-line starting pitcher like Luzardo.  If the season ended today I'd feel really good about going into a playoff series with Burnes, Rodriguez and Bradish as our big three starters.   I also see no point in getting Crochet midseason as he's not going to be able to carry a starters' load into October.  It's more likely that we trade for bullpen help now, and then address starting pitching in the offseason if Burnes moves on.

      I would rather trade for Kikuchi than Luzardo. His FB has gotten hammered pretty much every year besides 2022 and he gets very few whiffs on it. His slider and changeup are both really good but he throws them less than 50% of the time combined. He could probably improve just by throwing those pitches more but not sure how successful he can truly be with that FB.

      They made a conscious choice to not draft pitching, instead to let other teams, draft, pitching, and deal with the failures. I see their logic and I don’t disagree with it, but the flipside is that when you need pitching, you have to pay the going rate. And that’s something that Mike doesn’t seem to want to do.  And that’s a wee bit o’ trouble, it tis…

      Let’s overpay a bit for Crotchett. No reason not to buy the best
