The Angelosers should sell already. We are in the middle of a magical season and this guy interjects himself risking to spoil all the good will the Orioles have been getting. Risking, no, he already did it. One can only hope that this doesn't affect the clubhouse.

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.

I agree, none of this makes sense.  

We're not getting the full story here, I'm 100% convinced of that.

Somehow every time we get more of the story, it paints John Angelos as crazier and more unhinged than before.

Before the season started, who could have predicted that we’d be approaching mid-August, the Orioles would be in 1st place in the AL East by 3 full games, and yet…

…this is the hottest, most active thread on the Hangout. 

Does the Angelos family try to ruin everything they touch?

Angelos is going to make Dan Snyder look like a saint, isn’t he

Being a dodgers fan feels more and more compelling thanks to the Angeloses.  I've been living here for 18 years, I feel like thats long enough to join the fandom without being a bandwagoner.

The Orioles sound cheap because we are cheap.  We were the team that forced our broadcasters to still announce games in Camden Yards when every other team dropped the draconian covid restrictions.  We were the only club still doing it.  It was because it was cheaper.  Masn is cheap.  They canceled their five pm show that I watched for like ten years because they are cheap.  

Angelos has bragged that he was happy the Orioles were stripped down already during the Covid closings and the fans being kept out.  He bragged we lost lots less money than other teams.  Because he is cheap.

If the players piss off John Angelos they might get a sudden downgrade in their travel accommodations.

This is the craziest thing I have ever seen.  I dismissed a bunch of the conspiracy stuff about Nashville, but I have to say I am now not so much of a skeptic.  Sign the lease. 

Can't MLB stop it from happening? Surely they wouldn't let the O's move to Nashville?

Why do people keep talking Brach? Why is it a big deal he took a selfie with JA wife?

He didnt do the selfie.  NO one is upset with Brach.  John Angelo's drunk wife came up behind him during live press conference and took a selfie.   It looked cringe.  

And imagine this clown lets his wife look like a moron on live TV had ALREADY suspended Kevin Brown because he thought Kevin made him look cheap?   This man cant even keep his drunk wife in line.  He is a embarrassment to the city.

      Who sits for Slater in Game One?

      By Aristotelian · Posted

      What do you mean starting for Slater? He is not a starter. The Ragans matchup makes things interesting because he has reverse splits. I don't know the numbers but they need to start the guys with good numbers vs Ragans and/or LHP changeups, whether they are LH or RH.

      Perhaps. I'm just saying he could stop the Chiefs, the Raiders disaster, and the Cowboys debacle certainly gave me pause.  Last night they certainly looked better, but the first 3 games gave me pause. I think we'll know more after a full season.

      Observations at the end of the regular season....

      By Sanity Check · Posted

      1. If the Orioles had signed Jack Flaherty, Seth Lugo and Chris Sale to bolster our pitching staff last off-season, this place would have gone ballistic, and not in a good way. 2.  The Orioles ended the regular season last year flat as a pancake, and it carried into the offseason.  This year, while under the pressure of trying to keep up with the Yankees, the team struggled mightily to find consistent offense and any overall consistency.  Once that pressure waned with us knowing our destiny, guys seemed to loosen up, and we saw the offense come back.  I thought that might happen.  However, my question is, after laying an egg in the playoffs last year and recent struggles despite the last two series, does the pressure of the postseason put us back in the funk we saw throughout most of August and September? 3.  I've seen a consistent theme in this forum over the past week or two which is this:  "All we have to do is get hot at the right time, like Texas did last year."  While I agree that's true, and want us to be that team this year, isn't that statement kind of an admission that without getting hot, we're not good enough on our own merits to persevere in the tournament?  And before I get crucified for saying that, I'll point to what everyone has witnessed in recent months:  Bad/inconsistent bullpen, inconsistent offense, questions about our starting pitching, defensive lapses and being prone to not showing up offensively.  And please, let's not act like some, or all of these, don't exist.   That all being said, Go O's!!!!!  Let's get hot!!

      This Playoff Start From Burnes Defines His Time With the O’s

      By Just Regular · Posted

      All of the October ones will.    Tomorrow good chance to be the least important one if things go any kind of good. Granted ~40% chance it is the only one, but that is short series baseball, not him. I won't have warm feelings if he handles these guys but is bad twice the next series.

      Would be upsetting to start Slater in any playoff game at this point. Even if you think Mullins/Cowser cant hit LHP (news flash Slater cant either)- keep the defense and the guys who "got you there"

      Os vs KC in WC round

      By terpoh · Posted

      If the point was "Skubal is better" you kind of proved that for them. More innings, more K's, less ER, less Walks, less hits, better W/L. Across the board. Ragans is very very very good- but Skubal is better, and the runaway for AL Cy Young. Either is capable of shutting down an offense- and Ragans did just that earlier this year. But we also roughed up Ragans in the other start. No matter who we face, we're going to find things that make it tough, its the playoffs. Lets keep playing good ball and get payback for 2014.
