No. Because 13 million. 

Toro is quite the prospect.

Eh, no. It's extremism on both sides of the fence. One the Orioles can't do wrong, and the other the Orioles can't do right.

Dan was the National Baseball writer for the Sun for many years. He has relationships with many of the national guys and is not always Oriole centric. He picked the Blue Jays to win the East four seasons in a row before last year.

I actually like Toro. But not the time to spend 13 million.

Would you let me in the group text?

Well, there's a small fee involved. Send credit card info and I'll see what I can do.

Right, you were wondering if I had personal information from the GM. 

Totally reasonable request.

So you were telling someone else they are wrong...yet have no information to back that up. Sounds about right. I figured you must have had knowledge of how Elias viewed Wilson as a prospect.

And CoC, that was just snark. Wouldn't want you to feel insulted.

I did have information, I knew that the Angels had traded him to the Giants.  That was the totality of my participation in the thread to that point.  You asked about stuff I hadn't been talking about.

And since you had no information...you continued the conversation by being condescending and accusing me of trying to insult you. Which I took issue with. Even after I said I wasn't trying to insult you, you basically called me a liar.

Hey, Merry Christmas dude. You've made your point a few times. Let's move on.

Is it snowing where you are? Do you hear sleigh bells?

Tis the season of 4 new Rule 5 names. How could anyone not be thrilled with that? @Moose Milligan

Oh, CoC and Dark Helmet going at it?  This is what happens when an immovable object meets an unstoppable force.  

I kid, I kid.  

We just picked 2/5 of our rotation today, how can anyone not be excited?

AND an all star right fielder and all star second baseman. Might take a minute for them though.

I hope it's ok if I miss the kiss and make up part.

I do, in fact, know a Mary. And a Sherry, Kerri, Jeri, and Teri. None however make me merry.
