Do you think the Rays will become a dynasty? They have very young players under their control for a number of years, have players coming up from the minors and have excellent player development. I know, I know, they don't have the finances to sustain this, but I would think if they have several years of success, that the revenue will come. They could easily be the late 90's Yankees. I am now a bandwagon Rays fan.

Two things.

1. Yes, I think the Rays are right on the verge of a dynasty that will rival the Skanks dynasty from the late 90's.

2. Please, please, please don't become a bandwagon Rays fan! It's fine to cheer them for beating Boston, but the O's should always be first in your heart. :)

Every bandwagon is a bad one. When you darft in the top five for 10 years, you are bound to get good for a bit.

I was thinking about the subject of bandwagon fans earlier this evening. When the O's get good (I'm guessing in 2045 or 2046), it'll really :cussing: me off to see a bunch of bandwagon fans rooting for the O's.

      John Means 2024

      By Safelykept · Posted

      There were several and I was one them. I'm  on record as saying I was one of his biggest Apologists . You should feel good about yourself as you were able to see that Means would be imploding before our very eyes( which was an opinion or a guess, which is what I did) as far as feeling bad for me? Dont I'm plenty good enough to know I wont be able to guess right every time

      Orioles acquire Ryan O’Hearn

      Fantastic pickup by Elias and big kudos to O’Hearn for taking advantage of the resources to improve. He’s a great story.

      Given his injury history and what’s happening right now, Means may make more money as an Oriole next year than as a free agent. He may have to settle for league minimum as a FA but would do better than that in arbitration. Heck, unless he’s effective at least a little this year then the orioles might release him after the season to avoid paying more than league minimum. I hope Means recovers, very much so, but this scenario is possible imo.    ps. I guess I ignored the part where you said if Means thinks he is healthy.

      Jackson Holliday 2024

      What I'd like to see in the next game Holliday plays, is for him to keep his eyes following through on the ball when he swings. In the last game I saw, he was yanking his head off the zone when he swung and couldn't see the bat to the ball. He was missing wildly and it wasn't even competitive. So, keep your eye on the ball! Follow all the way through! If your swing is so violent that it's yanking your head off the sight of the ball, then adjust your mechanics because you can't hit what you can't see!

      What a great example of pedantic! Please tell us you meant to do that. I honestly can’t tell these days.

      Well it certainly doesn't look like he'll be winning Rookie of Year award. And if we send him down for like the tiniest amount of time, we get him for another year, right? I think if this poor hitting continues it's financial mismanagement not to send him back down. Grayson got sent down and came back way better.
