I both love and hate that nothing comes out of the Warehouse anymore.  Elias runs a tight ship and the Lorenzen rumors are probably coming from an agent.

Another page from the Ravens' book. DeCosta is a magician at somehow keeping things under wraps.

No one in the NFL had any idea the Ravens had a need at receiver on draft night 2022 until moments before the Ravens picked when Hollywood Brown tweeted about it from on the plane to Arizona after the deal was finalized. And he had made the trade request months before that.

I suggested earlier if they lose 4 straight there nothing keeping them from becoming sellers Tuesday afternoon.  7 games back and behind 4 teams could make them sellers.  

Maybe we'll wind up with Gio after all 🤣

I don't get being upset about owners that spend money on players instead of pocketing the profits.

I will say that Moreno appears to meddle a lot and is pretty easy to root against.

I'll never understand it either. But that is how some here choose to engage the game.

Looks like the Scherzer deal might be dead. Rangers want Max's 2024 option guaranteed,  but he wants it to remain an option. Met fans are pissed.

Wait, they want to pay him $43M next year?  Alrighty.

He was willing to waive his NTC..maybe the Rangers lower the offer and a deal still gets done.

Meanwhile for Rangers, Eovaldi after a 1-turn skip has been scratched tomorrow, but Bochy says the soreness in his elbow is in a "good" place.

Was always the risk for Eovaldi. Still wish we had signed him and he was the best option imo(because of contract) but he certainly didn’t come without risk.

Something to monitor here.

It sounds like the issue is with Scherzer.

So changing the offer won't change that.

Sure it would. The Rangers are trading of their best prospects and was willing to do that because they were getting this year and next year.

If next year isn’t guaranteed that doesn’t mean the Rangers don’t want him..it just means they probably wouldn’t trade as much to get him.

Maybe?

I don't know, for me that would be such a momenta difference in value that I'd be hard pressed to come at it from that angle.

      The discussion about Cle vs NYY is interesting. The Os always struggle at Cle and their BP is awesome but the starters are meh and so is the offense.

      Winter 2024 40-Man Additions

      By Jammer7 · Posted

      Bautista, if he is back to his old self, would be a big addition. Dominguez and Soto have to improve the walk rate. They certainly have swing and miss, but at a significant cost. Cano can throw up in the zone and get misses, but he is used so often he is rarely sharp. He is used to induce ground balls, and the sinker is fairly effective when he is tired.  Akin, Webb and Coulombe are getting some swing and miss. They are all above average in swinging strike percentage, according to FanGraphs. MLB average is generally around 11.2% from year to year, and Akin (second on the Orioles behind Grayson 13.6) is at 13.2, Dominguez 12.4, Cano 12.2, Soto 12.9, Webb 11.8, Coulombe is 9.9 and Cionel 9.5. In fairness to Coulombe (11.8) and Webb (13.7), they are higher over the last three years. They have not been healthy for a fair amount of this season and pitched through some things that made those numbers dip, perhaps.  Bautista was 18% in the same period of 2022-2024. He would be 11th in MLB in 2024. No other Oriole is in the top 100 in MLB. Grayson Rodriguez is at #120. It should be noted that Andrew Walters is at 18.8, ranking 7th. He was our unsigned 18th round pick in 2022. All of that aside, I am not sure the pen is structured the same as in recent years. There may be some moves there. Or, perhaps it is like you wrote, and they focus on Soto and Dominguez making adjustments to having more command, decreasing the walks. Those two are getting a little expensive as well. I guess we’ll see.

      How much different? They sat Judge yesterday, they threw their playoff starters for 5+ innings yesterday and today. They are also playing for the best record in the AL. They aren't mailing it in.

      2024 Playoff ticket availability

      By KojiSplit · Posted

      It’s not just the O’s. I’ve checked the Dodgers who have similar prices and they have a lot of upper deck NLDS games 2 & 3 available. Same for the NLCS. yanks still have seats available also. — In general, I’m sure alot of fans are just gonna wait till the day of to grab tickets.

      That makes no sense. If they had to win their current series would have looked much different.

      I agree. You have to wonder if the Yankees are behind him getting hit. Perhaps the ghost of George has struck
