Of course, it behooves Boras to have a good relationship with every GM but I do think there is a mutual respect between him and Elias.   It could be total smoke or it could be that he now considers the Orioles serious players for one or more of his clients.   As usual, talk is cheap.   Until we see someone signed or traded for, who cares?

Why?  It’s the truth.  Anyone paying attention can see the O’s are in a position to compete for the next several years at a minimum.  I think most players and their agents are pretty sophisticated abo

MLB has a measure of market size called the Revenue Sharing Market Score, that they use to determine the ten smallest markets eligible for extra draft picks.  The O’s rank 21st on that list.  If it’s

Does it?

I don't think it does.

I say we lean into it and start using feather the same way Chang uses his name on Community: Just as a fill-in for absurd, nonsensical puns.

Get with the feathers, Featherstein.

We're taking this thing all the way to Feathersville!

Feathers fly forever!

Etc.

Just a guy that use to be here. I figured some of the vets from here would be interested. Obviously you aren’t one of those.

Seeing it made me kinda have a chill go up my spine, shuddered a bit, got a little sick to my stomach. 

Like a very mild form of (forgive me for any disrespect to those who have the real thing) PTSD...

      Why Bochy walking Kjerstad to load the bases made me smile...

      By Tony-OH · Posted

      I'll be honest, he's surprised me a bit with his defense and speed this year. His spring speed is 67th percentile and better yet, he's looked pretty decent, if not a little awkward, even while playing giant left field in Camden yards. Now, saying that, his reaction times have been quite poor (-2.9 ft/sec) and his burst is not great (-1.1 ft) but his routes have been pretty good and he's still getting used to MLB stadiums with upper decks. Heck, he even maxed at a 96.1 MH throw which is more arm strength then I've seen before.  So I have to give him some credit for doing some things this offseason to better his defensive abilities. Even Colton Cowser, who is is 9 OAA this year in the outfield and covers 34.8 ft/sec (1.3 ft better than average) was 1-.2 last year so sometimes it takes a bit.  Is Kjerstad better suited for RF than LF in Camden Yards, sure, but his defense has actually been ok out there. He's playable and should get better.

      Not interested in any of those guys. Tallion is no better than Irvin or Suarez

      Who goes when Kremer comes up?

      By orioles22 · Posted

      Kremer hasn't been very good at Norfolk. How much longer can he stay there? Maybe we make two trips through the rotation until the All Star break. I also wonder if Burnes makes the AL squad, and he almost certainly will, does that mean he has to skip that last Sunday start?

      Huh? I did no such thing. I may have pointed out his poor start like I point out lots of things, but at no point, and I mean no point, not even in the furthest of miscommunications could anyone decipher that I posted some skepticism over Basallo. What I pointed out was how unbalanced at the plate he was early in the season. He was. I didn't state anything other than that.  I was an early adopter of him as a prospect, I knew his age and his elbow injury coming into this season, and I know that catching takes toll. You are sounded mistaken or misinformed or misremembering. I've said since last year that he very well may be the best prospect in the system, bar none. His upside with the bat is immense with only Mayo having similar upside for power.  And you think you are the one who brought up his age like everyone else did not know? Ridiculous.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      By Tryptamine · Posted

      Jon Morosi just reported on 670 The Score that the Cubs are signaling to teams that they are open to selling later this month. No trade talks are imminent. Bellinger, Happ, and Taillon all mentioned as candidates to clear money while refreshing the roster. — Locked On Cubs (@LockedOnCubs) July 1, 2024
