That's Soto's first nomination ever.  Tell me again how there's no Yankee bias in crap like this.  He goes to the Yanks, plays ever-worsening defense, and gets a GG nomination.  Laughable.

This is irritating me way more than it should, LOL.

It really is.

It isn't as if he's won it, and even then, who cares?

That was the last straw? Did you just start following baseball?

Juan Soto is RF???? You've got to be kidding me. The GG just lost all legitimacy for me. He is absolutely atrocious! He is one of the worst fielders in the MLB.

I don't know man.  But its sports and I hate the Yankees with the fire of a thousand suns, and this is a message board to voice that, so here I am.....

Actually, it's his 2nd - he was nominated in 2022 with was/sd.

      Right..things need to be tweaked and some personnel has to change. There isn’t going to be an overhaul of philosophy.   Thanks for proving that point.

      As we enter the offseason, the O's are a _______ win team

      By waroriole · Posted

      With no FA signed, we’re about an 85 win team. This presumes the old Adley returns. And Felix returns to at least 90% of his 2023 version. Very thin on SP and a LH dominant lineup.  Bullpen needs at least one back end addition

      RHH Outfield Targets

      By waroriole · Posted

      But Slater was awful against LH last year. He had a .541 OPS against LH, and in 142 PA against LH had only 3 XBH. There are plenty of guys who are better fits for the RH OF role. Grichuk and Refsnyder to name a couple. Elias needs to start doing better than bare minimum.

      I'll take one from Jim Palmer, who in the Spring og 1979 said, this team will be lucky to finish 4th

      RHH Outfield Targets

      I’m ok with Slater but I think they need to get a RHH or two that are better than Mountcastle.

      Actually what Elias said supports my comment very well. Melewski:  One potential critique for the offense is the Orioles are too reliant on the home runs and slugging.  Moving forward do you think that Is a valid critique?  Does there need to be more variety? Whether its on base or other ways to score? Elias: I definite experienced the frustration of that.  Who didn't.  I've been around baseball and a lot of the very best information out there in baseball my entire life and career. And getting hits, getting RBI with runners in scoring position.  There is a lot of evidence that can be hard to control on a year over year month to month basis. Its a tricky thing,  Hitting. That said I am going to behave like it is under our control and we are going to examine everything about our offensive approach, teachings, the mix of personnel, the kind of things that you mentioned.  And put ourselves in position to where we feel like we have addressed any shortcoming there. I don't necessarily believe its all chance.  I do think there are things our organization, and ultimately our players will be able to do to improve our odds on that front.   It's not a good experience going through that for months.  Where we are struggling to get runs in from second base.  That was not the case last year.  We were great at it.  With a lot of the same guys.  I have a lot of confidence that can correct next year.   Its going to involve some work by us. --------- Then his actions were to let the hitting coaches go.
