Well, if it were up to most people on this board...

Every competitive team needs a position player scapegoat. The guy to point to when things go bad or they want to vent their frustration. On this team, Frazier is that whipping boy. Despite the fact that's he's probably the 4th best infielder in the organization right now with a track record and a career positive WAA. Look man, I'm not a Frazier fan. But you can't find more than 4 better infielders in the organization RIGHT NOW. I'm not talking future value.

I think I am beginning to hate Ohtani...you know like I hated any Yankee player over the years...

You hate Steely Dan? You may want to see a professional for counseling...

Naw, I'm good.

Soulless music isn't my thing.

They should have done like Zappa did at the end and just have computers play all the instruments.

That's fair enough and I more or less agree. What this team needs is Danny Valencia -- a guy that can hit lefties but isn't a prospect that needs regular ABs.

6 game hit streak for Gunnar

[Mr-splash]

Frazier would have made that play

[SteveA]

Ortiz, the only guy in the lineup who didn't get a hit last night, gets one today.   Let's get some runs!

I know CoC is stoked about Andy Grammer coming to Camden Yards.

I'm thinking about flying up.

Danny Coloumbe loves math? Well, this is why I watch baseball. I wonder where Gunnar stands with English?

[Aglets]

O's are 0-5 so far with RISP.    Ugh.

Love that we are getting so many chances so far though.

There are many things I hate more than low OBP.

People for instance.

And Steely Dan.

Rush is pretty high on my disdain list...and people.

Trout with a bomb.  Hanging some pitches for Wells so far today.

It's hard to keep both of those guys down in a 4 game series.
