Jackson Holliday's heater may never end. 🙃 (To the baseball Gods this is a joke please don't smite Jackson Holliday.)

 

It is all about confidence.  As a person who has spent 1000s of hours, and $1000s of dollars, on Golden tee with my friends drinking beers for hours on end?  And Wings?

All time favorite arcade game.  Not even close.  If you can play that well your hand/eye coordination is on point.

If this thread was on the correct board, this never would have happened

Can someone please get rid of this guy? Hasn’t he violated some rules or something? Not sure I remember another poster making this board this unenjoyable.

You have to give up something of quality to get quality. Absolutely Ortiz would be a plus defender at 2B and would be doing well "IF" the Orioles would have given him that chance. I think the Orioles

So JH says that Golden Tee helped his eye/hand coordination.  I agree.   I mean he LITERALLY said this.  

Why are you arguing this very basic fact?

But I am the bad guy?

Some of you guys just look for drama.  You must be really bored in life. 

Sad!

If you think that’s what I’m getting at, you are more clueless than I ever imagined you are.

Well since I actually said this yesterday (below and you can look that up).....and yet you said that this is how I decided to come back into this thread?

Not only are you 100% wrong.....but again you look like a drama queen.  Just stop.  For the love of humanity.  Stop.

 

I thought I said it in this thread, maybe in another and for sure in at least 2 game threads now.  He looks like a completely different player.

Much better and more confident.  I know I said he should be played everyday.  (even though I hate how he catches pop ups). :)

And here I am.  Responding to a post.

That I made yesterday.

So you admit to judging too quickly and being completely wrong?

Your whole over the top “smear campaign” on him was way way wrong.

      This is the kind of thing that drives me crazy

      By Spy Fox · Posted

      My current confusion is that I thought Mayo would be in that first category, but it has been the second. I guess it shows what they think of his defense, which I get, but… the Mountcastle and Urias injuries should have been enough to bump Mayo to everyday status. Instead we are giving Eloy all this time, even though Mayo seems like a higher upside play.

      By ChuckS · Posted

      I seem to recall Eloy being in there against quite a few righties of late  He also has reverse splits over his career, so using him as a strict platoon guy against LHP makes little sense.  May be reading too much into the L/R thing when we are fielding everyday lineups with Rivera, Jimenez, and Slater.  We just need better players.  Kjerstad has shown the ability to hit both lefties and righties in the minors.

      Yep. In the offseason, I said they had to trade one of Mateo or Urias and 2 of Hays, Mountcastle, Santander, OHearn, Mullins or Santander.    If you do that, are you really any worse off right now?  Maybe if Santander was traded but it depends on what you got back and how the replacements filled in for him. The slugging and power is great but average at best defense and a 308 OBP isn’t tough to replace. This team holding onto so many mediocre vet guys all in the name of “depth” just doesn’t sit well with me. I think it has hurt the team.    You can always acquire depth. Depth is in abundance. Talent is not. You don’t forgo talent for depth.

      Take one for the team Adley

      By LGOrioles · Posted

      Completely fair. I just think some people were hyped up about Adley’s power surge the first few months even though there were some issues under the hood. Not to this extent, but there were some problems.

      This is going to be even more of a concern for 2025 in my opinion.   There's really not a lot to pull from in the minors, most likely losing Santander and Burnes plus some.   Kjerstad is a question mark because he's never been given an opportunity to get a months worth of AB's because of usage and injuries.   I'm just doom and gloom right now because the last couple of months have been really disappointing. It's going to take some decent money this off season to address some of the needs, and I'm hoping ownership will be willing. I'm also hoping Mr Elias will be willing to rely on outside talent that's a bit better than the stop gaps that we've seen so far.

      Orioles attendance 2024

      By LookitsPuck · Posted

      This correct. https://trace.tennessee.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1426&context=jasm There are other factors, of course, certainly school has started and that has an impact. But I reckon the Orioles just puttering along isn't helping things. It'd be different if they were performing like they were to start the season. But the team currently looks like the 2015 Orioles (a .500 team) than the 2023 Orioles (or first half 2024 Orioles, for that matter).

      Yep. You know my thoughts on all of this and it is frustrating. Even not dealing guys like Mountcastle, Hays or O'Hearn this offseason to make space for guys was short sighted.  Besides Gunnar, Adley and Holliday, and Westburg to a lesser extent, none of the other prospects like Ortiz, Kjerstad, Cowser, Norby, Stowers, and Mayo were given everyday opportunities from the start. When they did play them, they have a nice game and instantly be back on the bench for days at a time. Cowser finally forced the issue by having that strong start and good defense, if he had struggled at all, Hays would still be in LF. Ortiz or Westburg should have been the starting 2B last year when they wasted money on Frazier. They came into this year with Cowser and Kjerstad needing everyday PAs, but instead brought their entire outfield back.  For a team that has been drafting college hitters mostly, it does seem weird that the offense stinks and they have to employ the likes of Jimenez, Rivera and Maton and the only prospects they had ready have really struggled, one of which Mayo is getting the backup experience.
