It looks like the same cell keeps regenerating over an area that covers OPACY. Hopefully is breaks up soon.

From many accounts the Davis and Trumbo deals were forced on him by our awful ownership.

I hadn't heard that about Trumbo. I am sure that was true of Davis, but shouldn't a real GM be able to talk his owner out of a deal like that? I guess the Davis deal was more a reflection of the toxicity in organization than DD himself but it was still his name.on the contract.

Nah, they're going to pop up here and there. One just popped up over my head and I'm in the Elkridge area. Just gotta wait them out a bit.

When Cedric Mullins was batting and Jordan Westburg was on deck, I had a vision while Jim Palmer and Kevin Brown were talking about Westburg. I had a vision that he was hoisting a very shiny beautiful World Series trophy wearing a white home game Orioles uniform. It was distinctly Jordan Westburg.

This rain delay game from a years back shows how far this organization has come. Andrew Velazquez, Hanser Alberto, Pat Valaika. Yikes.

Wait, did you really say DD was supposed to talk Angelos out of getting swindled by Boros? At the time of the deal, Showalter and Anderson had way more pull than DD.

No GM was able to convince the awful Angelos of anything. We had Hall of Famer Pat Gillick who couldn’t tell the mighty and all-knowing Angelos anything because he wouldn’t listen. Hopefully the reign of the Angelos plague is coming to a merciful end sooner rather than later.

Rio Ruiz, Richie Martin (I actually had some hope for him), Thomas Eshelman...

DD trying to bolt to Toronto's front office following the 2014 season pretty much killed his influence as primary decision maker in building O's roster.

C'mon MASN... replay of O's/Braves from the Covid year.

Same game they showed during last Friday night's rain delay?

[Moose Milligan]

I was trying to figure out why that 2020 game they were showing was an “Orioles Classic” but then I heard the name Pat Valaika and turned on the CWS instead. 

[DEOriolesfan]

We got grounds crew action, boys!!! Tarp coming off it looks like!

MASN really is the lowest common denominator when it comes to rain delay shows.
