Lol I’m actually pretty quiet at games.  

Offering trade proposals to people sitting around you?

What was Palmer's "You can come into my room and take a look" comment about?

I think it was about young sibling fans bickering over a foul ball. It looked as though the older brother had come away with it, to the consternation of his younger sister. It did sound a bit strange, though.

Trying to trade my kids for a beer.  No one will do it.

Hyde's hooks tend to be quicker than Buck's were.

A young guy got a foul ball and his dad was struggling to get it from him, and the boy would not give it up. I believe Palmer was voicing the young man telling his dad if you want to see the ball you can come in my room to see it, it’s mine!

I believe we decided it’s the Mike Myers Dr. Evil pose. 

Yeah, that has to be it. Don't know how I forgot that!

This is right move. He was off. 

Trying to stay in a wildcard race during September and cannot give away any games. 

[Sports Guy]

That was one hell of a double Play there.

Will give Odor credit, he can turn that DP very well.

[justD]

Wow That DP combo is just the best!!!

Thanks! Out of context it seemed weird!

[O's84]

Well that ended even better than I hoped.

[Beysbol]

Wow! That throw by Odor was so quick.

I think your correct with what we know.   But it seems that behind the scenes Odor is doing magical things making scared and unhappy boys into wonderful excited super great baseball men.   Or at least that is the propaganda being pumped out by Hyde.   

I dont buy it.  I think Odor has done his job of playing until some of our prospects were ready.  I think several are more capable than Odor.   Not even thinking of Urias.  Westburg and Joey Ortiz could play second.   Both would likely hit more than Odor now also.  

I believe Odor's leadership/veteranosity has helped the O's.  There's no way to quantify it.  It might even balance out the negative effect of his play.  Elias/Hyde obviously think so.
