I don't know what you are talking about.  I might have to fly up to get that sweet Mr. Trash Wheel swag.

You do that. I’m sure they will sell for a ton of money on ebay right after the game. 
 

There are a couple of things I like but the volume is pretty light.

Two bobble heads.....lol. The Nats have 7-8 at least. Most teams have four or more. They had a good run for giveaways in 2014-16 but it’s been downhill 

Last year there were 5 bobbleheads on the schedule. The Palmer and Bird Hall of Fame ones that are on this year's schedule, plus a Boog Powell, John Means and Cal Ripken bobblehead. In fact all of the 2021 promotions were originally scheduled for 2020, but several promotions are missing. Besides the bobbleheads, there was a knit hat, a soccer jersey, a 1970 Brooks Robinson Jersey,  and a travel pillow that appeared on the 2020 promotional schedule but not the 2021 schedule.

 I don't anticipate fans in the stands for the entirety of this season, perhaps not any fans until the All-Star Break, so I somewhat understand the diminished promotional schedule. Hopefully in 2022 the promotional schedule is beefed back up.

I think it's great to give away a Baltimore Elite Giants cap.

But given that it's red and blue with a big B on it, is it a wise idea to give that cap away at a game vs the Red Sox.   The optics....

I would be absolutely floored if there are games held in May with an unrestricted number of fans.

It would be really cool if it looked like a bunch of Red Sox fans were cheering for the Orioles.

I forgot about some of those from last year- maybe because pictures were not posted.  I am fine with five, but having two is a bit of a joke.  I'm not asking for 11-12 like the Dodgers have, but 5-6 is an acceptable amount.  

In any case, anything they do is better than the absurd amount of t-shirts they did for a time.  I think over half of them at one point were t-shirts.

      Elias: It's on me

      What is unsettling to me is in how much better a position the team appeared to be in last year at this (approximate) time.

      I love this team, I love the Orioles

      I love the Orioles but after the last three decades it is no longer unconditional love anymore from me.  The Orioles are going to have to put out once in a while to keep my interest.  They got to let us go all the way once in a while.

      Elias: It's on me

      The Baltimore Orioles are still one of the best teams in all of baseball.  They still have an awful lot going for them.  Unfortunately, the while the distance between World Series winner and close but no cigar is not that much in the overall win column during the season, the things they need to go right, and the things they need to do to improve are still pretty massive. Compounding this is the fact that they can do everything necessary and it is still possible it won't work.  I don't say that as an excuse.  Elias is going to be measured by playoff appearances and the success that brings.  He has been engineer of two playoff teams and a near miss.  He still has as many wins with his near miss and his rebuilding teams in the playoffs as his two playoff teams.  It is certainly fine to criticize that. Of course he says it is on him.  One because it is, and two because any good GM would do the same.  But the Orioles are no longer building towards being good.  They are good and no one is going to give them anything.  There is work to be done to make this team better positioned to compete in the post season.   And the Angelos family is no longer a hinderance. I am as disappointed as everyone else and in general I am a root for the uniform not the player guy.  These guys have been fun to root for, but the second half and this playoff run was tough to stomach.  I hope that to give this team the chance to compete, they add a #1 TOR pitcher and another playoff caliber starter before the season starts.  I also hope they add a playoff experienced RH bat.  Trade, sign, whatever.  The window is open.  Whatcha gonna do?

      I doubt any GM has ever done that.  Maybe he can be the first, he could hold a big press conference and everything.  Go Elias, go!

      Elias is also a known liar.  So take what he says with a grain of salt.
