That's the Buck Showalter I remember, leaving the starter in too long.

Buck is starting DJ Stewart in LF in Camden Yards.

Time table on when Means and Mullins are coming back? 

Mullins is making a rehab start in AA Bowie tomorrow, IIRC.

Means is on track for early September.

He hasn't got anything better to relieve.

Brach's analysis when they bring the old Orioles into the "booth":

"Wow"

"Awesome"

"Cool"

Sweet!! Thank you!

My mom had a crush on Ken Singleton. Said he had great legs.

Again, I'm not sure what that has to do with anything. If you think he'd be fine in COF spot with his arm, then I'd respectfully disagree. He's fine at 2B and 3B here and there. Mullins, for as much as he gets trash-talked has a much stronger arm than Westburg.

Mullins plays the outfield so it’s hard to compare max velocity.  I don’t think Westburg has a particularly great arm but it seems his release is quick.  It doesn’t seem any different than Urias,for example.  But I agree he isn’t ideal at a corner OF spot.

I was lucky enough to spend about 4 hours one night at an event with Ken Singleton. He's a true humble gentlemen. It was pretty cool to see one of my Orioles (When you're a kid these guys are your guys) end up being a true gentlemen.

He has an OPS of 864. I don't care if he hits doubles and singles, as long as he produces

Agree. It’s just a bit weird because he is so put together you expect the ball to go further.  Still a very valuable player. 

[Tony-OH]

O'Hearn does not belong in the outfield.

[Malike]

We need Cedric back so badly. Santander makes that play.

[Gurgi]

Maybe the O'Hearn in right field hurt a little there.

It would be awesome if Means comes back effective.

I want Kjerstad up if Mullins isn't going to be back soon. They can sacrifice someone on the 40 man roster to make it happen.
