Yeah, but at least the big Yankee fan is back from the little league World Series.

Wait, we got you saying he's a Yankee fan, section34 swearing up and down til he was blue in the face at a OH Night at Edgars that he's a Red Sox fan...

I think he's a pro broadcaster. Any fandom he has is superceded by that. He knows who signs his checks.

My God man. He is thrilled with Jeter and ARod. I am an unabashed homer and proud to admit it and while Jim Hunters excuse making for the O's bothers even me, Thorne is overboard with the Yankees. Maybe 34 is right also, maybe he is a national broadcaster who is so use to seeing the Red Sox and Yankees he can not help himself.

      Os claim Levi Stoudt

      By RZNJ · Posted

      They look like they already tinkered with his knuckle curve.  Not as much break but still sharp and he was actually pretty consistent with it.  It’s a SSS but his overall control looks much better with Seattle.

      I mean, he's not a closer. That's on Seattle for trying to use him like that in a 1-0 game. He's a solid middle reliever, but shouldn't be overextended into high leverage like that.

      Keith Law has O's taking Tommy White at #22 in latest mock draft

      I had never heard of Luke Dickerson before.  His HS is about an hour away from me.  Baseball America does a top 500 ranking.  I thought I’d find him in the top 100.  Nope.  I searched by “Luke” and he popped up at #311.  That’s some late riser!   Here’s the write up.   Is he supposed to be in top 2 rounds consideration? 311. Luke Dickerson SS Ht: 6'0" | Wt: 185 | B-T: R-R Age: null School: Morris Knolls HS, Rockaway, N.J. Commit/Drafted: Virginia Age At Draft: 18.9 Dickerson has been one of the better offensive performers among high school hitters in the northeast, which along with his athleticism has piqued the interest of scouts. Dickerson, who won a hockey state championship in March, has a strong, compact frame and plus speed. Scouts highest on him see an offensive-minded righthanded hitter who has shown solid feel for hitting and for the strike zone with the ability to use the middle of the field, along with an uptick in power production this spring. Dickerson has played shortstop but has experience in the center field as well, with second base or the outfield potential fits for him long term.

      Kyle Stowers 2024

      By Safelykept · Posted

      Santander has not had an off day since 5/30. Tomorrow would be would a good day to gives Stowers a RF start and Santander a bench day. Did it yesterday with Mounty it also could work with Hays or Mullins. The could easily get him 3 or 4 starts a week, whether or not they do is another question.

      He is a starter filling in for an injury and 6 man rotation.  He won’t be a starter when Kremer comes back and we go to 5 man rotation.  He is the only guy that has started a game this season and not given you 6 innings at least 1 times.  That includes guys like Means, Wells, Povich Kremer & Irvin.  You can’t be a starter on a contending team and never go at least 6 innings, that is how you do wear out a bullpen having to get 10+ outs every turn through.

      Heyman on deadline targets

      By Mt. Holly · Posted

      We should trade for Crochet. He has already exceeded his previous innings pitched. We put him in the bullpen for a couple of months to strengthen the pen and save his arm. Build him back up to start for the stretch run and playoffs if needed. Next year, when Bautista is back, he becomes a top tier starter again. He solves our bullpen concerns for this year and starts next year.

      What’s the preferable way to win a 2-1 series?

      By Greg Pappas · Posted

      Yes, 109 is the key... anything below that is just, well, meh.
