Frazier’s fault I guess.

Hell yeah Tony.  Reminds me of that one Tenacious D song about being gentle.

It’s because he does not want to put guys on the 40 man when he does not have to.  He really isnt going "all in" on the season.  Long term issues always win out it seems.  

That’s not the reason. 40 man issues aren’t why different arms aren’t up here.

There was still no need to send down Irvin.

He brought up Vespi for that move, had him up for one day, didn't use him, then sent him down for (Baker?).

Who pitched in one game and then went down for Baumann.

Irvin should never have gone down.

That is total BS.  What pitcher should they have put on the 40 man that they haven’t to help this staff?  Their offense isn’t the problem.  Please don’t tell me Jackson Holliday should be up because there isn’t a need for him right now.

      As of today, we have 3 lefties in the OF. He will have plenty of at bats here.  I wouldn't start him everyday persay but 350-450 at bats will be fine.

      For me, he’d be the 4th outfielder so he’d likely have to do both. He could spell all three of Mullins/Cowser/Kjerstad at any given time. I would argue positionally a RH OF might be out biggest need in fact, so if not O’Neil, someone else of that ilk.

      I would consider adding Tommy Pham in our McKenna/Slater role......he's a better bat and it pretty much guarantees that we'll be in the playoffs again.  He always gets there. Yes, I'm serious.

      Alonso would be the worst possible signing for us. All he does is hit for power, and even that might be waning, even before you stick him in Oriole Park with that LF wall. That is the hardest of passes.    Martinez is very meh. That dude is going to fall off a cliff at some point soon, I’d rather it not be while the Os are paying him.    Could get on board with O’Neill for sure, if the price is reasonable. Major upgrade over the Slater/Hays combo from 2024, if he could stay healthy.

      So, you would be okay putting him in left field, or a you thinking of him platooning in right with Kjerstad?

      A lot of good stuff here: https://www.sportsbusinessjournal.com/Articles/2024/10/07/mlb-orioles-rubenstein I particularly like the following quote: “I’ve written some big checks for Carlyle over the years, so we’ve put alot of money into deals and it’s not like I’m going to have a shock at the size of the dollars that might be involved,” he said. “The trick is getting the opportunity to do that.”

      Lot of great crowds at these games so far in fact (throwing stuff onto the field notwithstanding). Yankees crowd I must begrudgingly admit was pretty raucous you could hear drum beats, maybe the occasional horn, in addition to their usual annoying chanting and sound effects. Phillies always have great crowds. SD and LA turning it up a notch. Detroit and Mets and KC will almost certainly add to that list shortly. Makes it that much more fun to watch.
