Everytime I hear "Glory Days" and he talks about "throwing a speedball by you" I throw up a little in my mouth......It's a FASTBALL, who throws a speedball??

Heard that term a lot in the '60s, meaning a not just a fastball, but a fast fastball, as in "He throws a real speedball." Maybe it's a regional thing. When I first heard the song I thought "speedball" was kind of outdated, but not out otherwise of place.

Just a friendly reminder. Factor this into your opening day travel plans. 

Well, this thread was about his concert at Camden Yards in September.

You are talking about his concert at the new arena tomorrow night.

The Eagles will be at the Arena Saturday as well, with the Orioles playing a 7:05 game.   I think that will be just as big a crowd as Bruce.  So those of us going Saturday might also want to consider that there could be additional traffic and scarcer parking in the area.

Aren't they just going to bus most of the fans in from the retirement homes?

He's not exactly in his 20s, is he?  

No, I'm not going.  I can't stand him.  

Is there anyone in their 20s who is any good?  Actually there is -- a kid named Sam Fender -- who people have been calling a young, British Springsteen.

    • Well said! Like you, I go back to about 1970 and the # of posts someone has is irrelevant to me. The fact that so many on here think there you know what don't stink keeps me, and I'm sure others from joining in more. I know what I know about this team and I don't feel the need to prove myself. And btw the closest that I've ever lived to Baltimore is the very most western part of Illinois.
    • To me none of that matters. Baker was throwing the ball well.  Had spin and velocity.  Go with that. Again, goes to show how many managers don't go by feel anymore and instead just go by what the book says.
    • You will get used to that around here.  The people saying you can't say anything about the Os unless you have played baseball for 20 years or been an Os fan for 50 years.   Bottom line is Baker, as mediocre as he is, was actually throwing the ball pretty well.  His pitches has spin and velocity and he had just struck out his last batter. To take him out for a complete and utter scrub?  And I say scrub in the best way possible?  Was ridiculous. Hyde was playing text book/by the book baseball instead of actually MANAGING BASEBALL by instinct and feels. And he got burned for it.  And it has not been the first time. 
    • Brecht has TOR upside.  We’re good at finding #3-#5 types just in developing them, but we need that TOR arm upside and develop. 
    • I thought Baker had a better chance of getting a strikeout. Even though he created that mess it looked like he could have worked out of it.  Generally not in favor of bringing in guys for bases loaded situations unless they’re absolute nails and have an extremely high K rate.  Akin’s K rate is higher this year but I still don’t believe he was the better option than Baker. 
    • We’ve been picking really athletic types when not picking high in rd 1. Position player wise.   2023 - EBJ, Horvath, Josenberger, Cunningham, Etzel Not that are prior picks haven’t been athletic, if you know what I’m trying to say. We don’t take plodders as position players.
