Elias doesn't need any more excuses. He's already given himself a pass on the Orioles' entire season.

It's as if he doesn't want to weaken the Tides or jeopardize the Orioles' MiL ranking. The Orioles have MLB's worst record and the Tides are a game and a half out of first, so everything's right on plan.  

Trust the process.

How much longer do I have suffer?  How much longer do I have to wait to see their ready prospects?  

While we wait for guys to prove that they deserve to pitch in the majors we get to watch guys that have proven they don't deserve to pitch in the majors.

The only question is would Norfolk beat the O's in a head to head series.  I'm leaning yes.  I give the hitting and starting advantage to Norfolk.  Relief advantage to Baltimore.

Well it does feel like living in a dystopian scifi movie already being Orioles fans. 

The O's still have the 30th ranked farm system.  All the prospects the O's supposedly have are media inventions.  The joys of being O's fans.  It's like being Cubs fans without the "lovable" aspect and championship 5 years ago.

    • Glad Bob Melvin and I don’t see eye to eye on that issue Well said, that make two of us, Bunting Ced down 5-3 with nobody out that late in the game is absurd.
    • Sorry to hear this--wishing you a sound recovery, in time for the O's run to the Series! (That would speed up the healing!)
    • Santander is a good case for the Rule V draft. That's unfortunately the same system that's going to make his next contract potentially look bad. If only he were a couple of years younger. It's hard to commit 25+M to a player at 30+. He's going to be missed in Baltimore, on the field and by the fans, but he's someone that they're going to have to let move on. 
    • While I agree and find your comment funny, maybe just say something along the line of”Don’t give up on this team” or “Quite being Debbie downers” instead of assuming they are projecting the own misery in their lives. People might take it better if it doesn’t feel like a personal attack. Either way, that win felt good and I HOPE this is finally the turning point going into the playoffs soon. 
    • I've made it clear that if they don't sign Santa and Burnes I'm ok with it as long as the money is allocated to other players they feel that fits their profile better .You know you have people on here like SG who only hears what he wants to hear. I need to learn to ignore that guy. 
    • Oh mr know it all. Who most times is wrong. Lol
    • I also think Santander will age better than Trumbo, despite my repeated comparisons of the two players. But I don't know that he will age better than Trumbo and all of the other one dimensional sluggers who were enjoying the retired millionaire sports star lifestyle by their mid-30s, and I don't want the Orioles to be on the hook when the world finds out in 2 or 3 years. Re-signing Santander to a 4 year, $80 million dollar deal is something the DD/PA regime would have done. Hopefully the ME/DR regime is smarter than that (and I think they are). 22nd percentile is really bad, man. And it's unlikely to improve in his 30s.
