Santander is making a good impression so far.   Two homers, a number of hits, and a couple of good defensive plays.    Buck has said twice now that Santander is making his case not just to stay on the

For me Trumbo is the biggest reason that I wish Trumbo was not on this team.

So you suggest he just use big black and white letters?  We'll agree to disagree.

I was listing the guys with the most upside. Several here are high on Long, he's absolutely a prospect worth following, I find it a bit curious that a guy with his success (was an all star this year) wasn't listed on our top 30 prospects list. His FIP & xFIP are both excellent & he's a ground ball pitcher which makes me believe he's got a decent chance to contribute. At 24 he's not old for AA. He's got 94mph & two decent offspeed offerings. I don't think it would be particularly surprising if he's in the rotation next year. I'm fairly certain Tony likes him a lot.

Thanks for the info. I have been planning to get down to Bowie to watch him pitch sometime soon. I need to hurry it up, almost out of time.

The guys in the minors forum are planning a night to catch a game in Bowie. That lineup is special. There are a couple Long threads there, guys who have seen him & really like him who know far more than I do. It's nice to have a team with so many promising prospects in the lineup & the rotation with Scott, Long & my favorite Liranzo.

Got a new one that should be distinct without distracting. 

One of these days I'll have to learn how to create an icon.    That pinkish/purple F isn't really doing it for me.   I liked being a blank face better.

Here you go, these may be in the wrong order but from the phone it looks like this. 

Click the 3 horizontal lines on the upper right, then click account, then click profile, then click the little icon in the top left of the rectangle that contains your name, then load a photo you've saved or copy/paste the url of a photo you like.

*Edit, the last photo is the start, then work  up & you'll see those screens as you click the links noted above.

It's easier to change with a smart phone. Just log in and select an image from your phone. 

Santander needs to come up and play everyday. I'm sure we're going to wait the full 20 days. Austin Hays is looking like our own Clint Frazier. 

The orioles made it really easy to follow the farm. Just watch Bowie games.

You guys think Buck will give this guy a real chance? 

With us still technically in the race, Mancini in left, and Smith in right, I really don't see where he plays. Although Smith was out yesterday so maybe there's an injury. Just don't see where he fits in.

Glad we stuck with him over Tavares. Tavares has a .740 OPS across AA/AAA.

We may have found ourselves something special in round 2 of this thing. He certainly has the look of a special hitter. If he can make consistent contact his numbers could be really impressive the way the ball is flying around these days...that's what's so frustrating about Davis, just put it in play.

      Will the Orioles make the playoffs?

      By slakattack · Posted

      Saturday's game was epically bad and not the type of loss a team on the upswing into the playoffs would suffer and one that I certainly hate to witness. I couldn't watch most of the game Sunday, but I wouldn't DVR it and then peek at the score either, I don't think that I would ever watch if I knew the outcome of a game in advance. The surprise elation (Gunnar's bases loaded double) and the agony of the non-send and inability to hit a sac fly is what keeps me coming back, old fool that I am.

      Orioles attendance 2024

      By bpilktree67 · Posted

      Predicting what the attendance will do next year is like predicting Hurrican season in January.  There are so many outside factors that it is just a guess.  How will they finish the year, how much will the spend in the offseason, how many corporations want to get ticket plans,   how is the economy in 6 months, how do they play next season what teams we play and when, will teams like Red Sox, Yankees and big draws play well.   I also think one of the biggest factors is what corporations want to sponsor give aways and what time of promotions will they run.  If you look at attendance some of the largest attendance games minus the Phillies, Yankees games are for the best giveaway souvenirs.

      Brandon Hyde 2024

      By theobird · Posted

      I’m a big supporter of Brandon Hyde, but the last game against Detroit I think he made a mistake. Second and third, nobody out….I would have had mullins bunt. He’s a good bunter, and with holiday at third I think that’s walk off.

      So I guess Ohtani decided he was bored this year since he wasn’t pitching or playing the field, and decided to steal bases just to have something else to do besides hit.

      I’d say maybe they would have reached 2013 levels (2.357 mm), which would have been about another 76,000 fans.  I seriously doubt they would have reached 2014 (2.464 mm, another 183,000 fans).

      Great point. You are right Frobby. It wouldn't have been quite as bad if the Orioles dropped these series and they had to face Skubal both times but to be fortune enough not to get him either time and still lose 4 of 6 was even more disheartening.

      Will the Orioles make the playoffs?

      By Gurgi · Posted

      Pretty much exactly what I am thinking.  I even had to cut back on my watching the games because the frustration was killing me.  Now I save all games on DVR and peek at the score if it is safe to watch.  This is odd because when the Orioles suck and they are far below .500 I watch every single game.  Sometimes every single inning of the year.   Crazy if the Orioles had STARTED the year sucking and had to spend the last two months in an amazing race to catch up for a chance for the playoffs we would all be thrilled.   But end the season on a three month skid of misery and the same playoff spot just feels empty.
