Got a 92 on that one.  I wasn’t expecting Fernando Valenzuela to be the most popular Dodger at 29%.  I also had Joe Carter for 25% as Blue Jays 300 homer guy.  

I did enjoy using Eddie Murray and Frank Robinson in my other two Dodgers squares.

9/9, 36

Spoiler

Chris Sabo, Vada Pinson, Josh Hamilton

Russ Ortiz, Ralph Garr, Dansby Swanson

Austin Wynns, Bill Terry, Tim Lincecum

I was very proud of the Austin Wynns pull.   I was going to use Will Clark, but I keep getting Will Clark and Jack Clark confused and didn't want to blow it with that.

Good for you.  I wouldn’t have known that Stu Miller played for the Giants or that Steve Avery was a first round pick (though I’m not surprised he was).   

But do you really hate to brag?  😉

To tell the truth I got totally lucky on Stu Miller.  There’s a story that it was so windy at Candlestick that he got blown off the mound.  In my mind I thought of him as a Giant but I believe the story involved the all-star game so actually I didn’t really know he played for them.

It would have been possible to complete all 9 squares today using guys who played for the Orioles.   I tried, but failed.   It is still my ultimate goal.   Some day....

Obviously the Oriole column would have all Orioles in it.

For the .300 hitters you could go Frank for the Reds, Javy Lopez for the Braves, and Will Clark for the Giants.

For the first round draft pick it gets tough... I didn't know Ross Grimsley was a first round pick.   He could fill the Reds square, Jeffrey Hammonds the Giant square, and Earl Williams the Braves square.

I wasn’t sure if the first round pick had to be from that team. For example, would Gausman have counted for Cincinnati?

    • I wouldn’t call that a “real strength”. Trade Perez and get a better arm to replace him.
    • But that RH bat played a position that we had locked down because of the presence of Urias and Westburg. He wasn’t going to come up and play. If you wanted him to be the RH DH, that’s fine but the Os also lost Mounty and Mayo didn’t come up and play well. They decided that having those 4 players was enough depth to use Norby to get pitching. I don’t see that as being wrong at all…no one to predict what would happen after. They had that “position” locked down. Jimenez was just a lottery ticket and really he played a lot more than they probably thought because of all the injuries that occurred.  
    • The 2025 bullpen looks like a real strength. R - Bautista, Cano, Dominguez, Webb L - Coloumbe, Soto, Perez, Akin I like having the 4 lefties with the WALL and that should be enough for the regular season.  It allows us to really matchup and take advantage of our ballpark. That’s a pen with 4 former All Stars. I believe Akin will still have an option since he made it through the season without burning his last one.  He’d be the guy to go down to AAA for a longman/fresh arm when needed. Maybe we get our lightning in a bottle reliever throwing near 100 in McDermott or Morfe later in the year. I don’t think we see much turnover here.  However, I could see Elias electing not to bring back Soto for flexibility reasons, more so than salary reasons.  Could we actually “sell” Soto for something of value?
    • https://www.masnsports.com/blog/reviewing-orioles-recent-coaching-history-and-thoughts-on-what-s-next From Roch.    An immediate reaction to the current openings is that Triple-A Norfolk manager Buck Britton could be a candidate to fill one of them. They also could seek a bilingual coach now that González and Hernández are gone. Britton’s contract expires at the end of the month and he’s close with the young hitters who passed through Norfolk. He’s also gained the respect of other teams in the majors and could move on, which would leave the Orioles with another task.   
    • If we don’t resign Burnes then what are we doing as a franchise?  It’s hard to see any difference between Rubenstei and what we had before. A case can be made for not bringing back Santander.  Heck, even Soto, but with our SP injuries, and the way we’ve spent our draft capital, the plan looked to be to always land that big time SP from outside the org.  Well that happened.  Gotta keep him now.
    • He called it a solid trade at the time it was made and he’ll die before he admits he was wrong about something. 
    • There was a need for a RH bat. We used a major league ready RH bat (who was also serviceable in the field) in the trade for Rogers. We added a bad RH bat, who was not able to play defense at all.  Neither Eloy or Rogers were able to keep their spot on the roster, and we had two guys go down that would have opened spots for Norby. So yes, it does have something to do with the Rogers trade.
