I can confirm this is true.

So here's what I found out: Yes, this is 100% true including the statement that got him suspended. Lots of folks are not happy over this. KB was starting to pick up more and more national ass

The irony here is that Angelos and the Orioles brass are getting far more negative publicity from this than any possible negative interpretation of what Brown said on the air could ever have caused.

Just now, Moose Milligan said:

I think most people can separate the good that's going on in the field vs JA/Kevin Brown.  

People outside of this market are going to forget about this in a week or two.  We certainly won't forget but this is a nothingburger after Brown is back on the mic.

Shut up, Moose! We're losing 9 in a row now!

This story is everywhere. 

Our clubhouse is aware of this and have their own feelings on ownership, I'm sure. 

It may not be their business because they have an entirely different job to do, but it's distracting (verb). Whether it becomes a distraction (noun) is another thing. Hopefully not. A loss tonight doesn't make it so.

I just flipped it on Dan Patrick and they are talking about it right now. Going through all of the reactions and criticizing the thin skin of ownership. Nothing new, but just adding to the criticism. Dan and his crew seem baffled by the ridiculousness of whole thing. I figured it would get a mention, but they are actually spending a lot of time on it.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      By ScGO's · Posted

      I firmly believe Elias is attempting to build a package around Mountcastle and Kjerstad w/ 2 to 3 lesser valued pieces in exchange for a good starter

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      By sportsfan8703 · Posted

      We probably need to consider who we want facing Soto out of the pen. We need a Soto stopper. https://stathead.com/baseball/versus-finder.cgi?player_id1=soto--003jua&utm_medium=sr_xsite&utm_source=br&utm_campaign=2023_01_player_innernav_stathead&__hstc=107817757.2f3f33a24b44870ec4a577029c49e44b.1699920000170.1699920000171.1699920000172.1&__hssc=107817757.1.1699920000173&__hsfp=966217318 Those are his career stats versus all pitchers. He tunes mostly everyone up pretty good. Some lefties stand out though. More as SP though. Just something to think about for what it seems is an inevitable playoff showdown.

      Albert Suarez 2024

      By emmett16 · Posted

      So I’ve spent a bunch of time of Suarez’ BBref page and it’s fascinating.  17 seasons of baseball all over the world in an a ton of leagues (APPY, NYPL, MIDW, GULF, FLOR, VEWL, SOUL, TL, NL, PCL, CALL, ARZ, JPEL, JPCL, KBO, IL, AL) The thing I’ve noticed is that he is incredibly consistent.  In all those 17 seasons: 1. His total era in all 17 years is 3.60 (3.81 MLB, 3.71MiLB, 3.45 Foreign) 2. His total H9 is is 9.0 (8.4MLB, 8.9MiLB, 9.1 Foreign) 3. His total HR9 is 0.7 (.9MLB, .8MiLB, .5 Foreign) 4. His total BB9 is 2.7 (3.0MLB, 2.5MiLB, 2.8 Foreign) 5. His total k9 is 7.0 (6.8 MLB, 6.7 MiLB, 7.7 Foreign) He’s done that pitching  quite a few innings (175MLB, 636MiLB, 676 Foreign) For comparison sake this year he is 2.43era, 7.9H9, 0.2HR9, 3.3BB9, & 6.8K9.  His H9 & HR9 are down a good bit resulting in the lower era.  The BB9 is up slightly and the k9 is right at his career average.  I see some regression  in his future as the HR9 returns closer to career avg. but I don’t see him completely falling off a cliff.   Hes not going to over power you but you know what your going to get.  I find it pretty incredible how he’s maintained a very consistent output of performance throughout his 17 years.  Not a lot of peaks and values.  That has a ton of value.  Glad to see him have some success in the later part of his career.  Easy guy to root for.

      Cowser has shown his defense is good in center too.  Robert strikes out more than Cowser and I don’t see wasting resources on him.  I can’t image the orioles would want him.

      Nolan Hoffman has 15 straight scoreless IP in AAA. What do we make of him?

      By CaptainRedbeard · Posted

      Definitely a potential up/down righty on righty option behind Tate. Definite 40 man add this off-season if he keeps it up.
