With Tony, you are always just hoping he can tread water enough early in the season and his otherwise "off" months. He always seems to have 2 huge months and then struggle the rest.

Please, for the sake of all that’s holy, please. Stop calling him Santa.

The Orioles are on pace to score 880 runs, which is 73 more than last year.   Individual players are going to have ups and downs during the year.

To be fair, Dirty is always done on EVERYTHING Orioles. As great as Burnes has been, he's even been down on him this year. 

Truly a happy and joyous individual... sarcasm

and he wont get one. This is Santander's final year as an Oriole. He played well for most of his time here. And he should cash his chips and make a lot of money somewhere else.Bless him. He earned it.

Does his hot streak this week change anyone’s mind on offering a qualifying offer?

what do his end of year counting stats look like for us to offer a QO and for him to turn it down?

I was pro QO before the season and am still pro QO.

No.   A super hot week,  or a super cold one,  shouldn't sway opinions.  That said,  the better he finishes and plays the rest of the year,  the better for the Os, both as a team this year and the chance of getting a pick for Santander when he turns down the QO.  If I'm Elias, I only offer the QO if I'm sure there is a 90% or better chance he turns it down.  Now if we trade some of the kids we are expecting to replace him next year,  then the calculus would change of course.

I think we can only get 1 pick, and we will get that for Burnes.

If so,  then I don't offer him obviously.   But I don't think that's accurate.  Could be wrong though.

I don't see anything in the rules that says that, but I could be missing something.

I’m honestly not sure either. Just remember it being discussed here and someone who knows everything saying that was the case.

No, but it will pain me to see him go. Extremely likeable player who's had big moments here.

      i still like that winning your division matters, at least a little bit.  So I think there's a happy medium between how unbalanced it was, and what you are suggesting.  13 games vs each division team feels right to me, but there are going to be years where that skews the WC thing a bit, because there's always one really bad team, it seems, somewhere (not always as bad as the ChiSox, of course).  I'm not sure how else to further balance it.  Maybe cut back on the NL stuff a bit and play more games against your non-divisional conference rivals so at least there's more head to head to base the WC on.

      Apparently this post of mine from one year ago killed this thread, as it was the last before today's bump.  In re-reading that, I am reminded (by a past version of myself, LOL) of why I love this sport.  It was actually a bit invigorating reading that back to myself.  LETS GO BIRDS!

      I've found the older I get, the less interest I have in watching my teams lose. It's a waste of time so I find something else to do. Watching my team lose is not enjoyable so I'd rather do something I'd enjoy. It's not like I'm that old either, just 47. I get a lot more enjoyment out of watching good games with other teams, to be honest. Watching the Bills in the first half last night was fun. The Redskins/Bengals game was fun to watch. Man City and Arsenal on Sunday was great. The Chiefs/Falcons game was a good game. There were a few decent college football games this last weekend as well. I'll watch the game to start tonight and if the O's are down 3-0 after the 1st inning, I'll find something else to do, probably watch some of the other MLB games that have playoff implications.

      It will be interesting to see if there is any carry over from the HBP's culminating in Heston's beaning.  Hate to say it but that's around when the .500 play started, now much worse.  I did like the way HK stared down Holmes after being hit-I think this series will mean a little more to him.

      It’s O’s and Yanks. Good guys versus bad guys. Baby Birds up against the Evil Empire — and another trip to the post-season is in the cards. I’ve been cheering for the O’s and very specifically against the Yanks going on six decades, and I’m getting good at it. So, yeah. I’m fired up. Now ask me about hopes and dreams. I don’t think this Orioles team is going to make a run to WS this year.  They have scuffled, they have failed — but I’m reminded, even in the platinum age of data — baseball is still a game of failure.  And man, runners in scoring position over the last week, I’m not sure I want to know that number. They’re still my guys. As long as they’re in it, so am I.
