Not surprising to see Britton come out and say this.  Seemed to be a very respectful Person.  Wouldn’t be surprised to hear Nick and Jones say something too.

I was expecting a much worse story than what she explained. I can see how a player might get confused by her being nice to them. She has many other stories the further down you read, including a coach of another team asking for her room number.

On Twitter several posters said (paraphrasing)....oh come on, he was just saying he likes you and thought you liked him.  What an awful take.  

Lie and tell her you have a trade scoop, get her to your room, immediately make an advance.   And some people think that’s the way it should work?   My daughter is an inspiring writer.    Still in college, not sure yet what path she will take.   But stories like this make me cringe thinking of her possibly dealing with male athletes  (not all or hopefully not most, but still).  And that’s a real shame

Zach Britton letting the world know it wasn't him.

She made reference to it last year, if I recall, but not to this level of detail.

I've seen her write this story before, IIRC she told it last year.  Maybe on twitter or something.  But I remembered the details, enough to know what it was before clicking on it.

I thought it was for the Athletic to tell you the truth.

Say what? A female colleague is nice to you and you invite her to your hotel room? 

Anyway, I'm gonna guess Troy Patton.

Good guess. I'll take Strop. Thought long and hard about going Joe Saunders, though.

Was Aubrey Huff still on the team in 2012?

No

    • It’s called venting, montezuma’s revenge-o.
    • It did look like they already have their game legs back--maybe in time to make that dream come true. I live in Brooklyn and it's going to be a challenge to hold my place and my lip in the sports bars over the next three days (unless I go to one filled with Mets fans who are just letting one screen tune into the game in the Bronx).
    • Haha, yeah--Try to "Mooo!" that and see what happens.
    • Adley was 2022, not sure if Gunnar was 2022 or 2023, I think he was also 2022.
    • Oh, I thought you were taking about his hitting in high leverage situations. 
    • Frustrating sure, but boring is not what I would I say. We do steal bases at times. I would like for us to play more small ball sometimes and it is frustrating to see us be so homerun happy. I think with Westy back, we will see a resurgence of timely hitting as that is very contagious.   We saw that at the beginning of the year. Amazing sight to see for sure. I think the most disheartening thing that really shocked me is the apathy and outright disgust I’ve seen from O’s fans toward their team. Perhaps we have been spoiled? No idea. Maybe expectations were too high? No idea, but frankly, a lot of yall focusing on other things and simply not watching/posting would make next season a lot more enjoyable. This is the first time since 96-97 where we make the playoffs in back to back years and you guys have been acting like some real lame jerks this whole dang season. Frankly, yall should be ashamed of yourselves. We are an incredibly young team and with that come highs and lows, but yall don’t see that. You just love to complain and moan and bloviate. Where’s the heart? Where’s the loyalty? Where’s the gratitude? You’d think with all this team has overcome, especially being so young, y’all would be happy, but no. So go off on your little bike rides or whatever. Go watch a movie if this saga seems boring to you. I don’t care. Just for once this season, keep your immense negativity to yourself.
    • Really an amazing run, 4 straight years. I completely agree with the ranking, too. There's no way Kjerstad is still a prospect though, right? 45 days is the cutoff and he's played in 48 games.
