Jay Jaffe FanGraphs Chat - 3/18/22 | FanGraphs Baseball

Anyone ever hear of this story about monkeys at the 2012 O's Spring training? It is about 1/2 way down in the chat.

Buck Showalter says as part of a talent show one year with the Orioles, Ryan Flaherty brought a pair of monkeys who threw and took batting practice. Showalter says that’s part of why he made the team: “That took guts.”

Jaffe also threw some shade at the local media:

Jay Jaffe: The question is why this has taken 10 years to come to light. What beat reporters were falling down on the job in 2012?
