When is the ACC ROY picked? I thought it would happen on the same day as the ACC coach and player of the year were picked. Did I miss something? If it hasn't happened then I would think Williams would have a solid shot at making it a three-for.

Favors from GT beat Williams 45-6.

Congrats to Greivis. I think 2nd team AA sounds about right for him. Hard to argue too hard with that first team, all incredible players.

ugh Greivis deserved 1st team over Reynolds. Better ppg, apg, rpg.
I can see it going either way.

Reynolds averaged 18.2 to Greivis 19.6, but he shot only 12 times a game compared to Greivis' 15.5. Greivis had the much better assist and A:TO numbers, though, and more rebounds. Scottie had the higher FG% and 3 PT% while Greivis edged him out on the line.

I think Scottie deserves the AA nod. As is usually the case, there are more guys deserving of a spot than spots available.

Greivis just won the Cousey award, which goes to the nations top point guard. He beat some really stiff competition!

Viva Greivis

I know he had a great season...but does anyone really think he's a better Point Guard than Wall? I don't really even consider him a PG...Congrats to GV, but rather surprising. Maybe it's an April Fools joke...

PPG: Wall 16.6 Vasquez 19.6

APG: Wall 6.5 Vasquez 6.3

RPG: Wall 4.3 Vasquez 4.6

TOPG: Wall 4.0 Vasquez 3.4

A-TO: Wall 1.62 Vasquez 1.87

FG%: Wall 46.1 Vasquez 42.9

FT%: Wall 75.4 Vasquez 85.7

3PT%: Wall 32.5 Vasquez 35.9

Its pretty easy to make a case that Vasquez had a better season than Wall, at least statistically. Either would have been fine a fine selection. Congrats to Greivis.

I just don't view him as a PG. I wasn't trying to slight his season. I also didn't realize that Wall's A-TO was that bad.

He may not bring the ball up the court all the time (although he still does most of the time) but he's definitely the guy who runs the offense. I think Vasquez is pretty clearly our point guard.

      No chance the Orioles finish behind the Redsox. But…. National media never believe in the Orioles.

      Man, I really really don't want to be a snob, and I know it's ballpark food, but as a Maryland-born son of a long generation of Potomac/Chesapeake waterman (hence the avatar I have here, it's my grandfather's wholesale seafood business...note the big red sign is a crab), the gushing the author does over what ever weird cream goo that is on top of those hot dogs as 'crab dip' kinda makes me sad. If it tastes good to the consumer, go for it, it's just not something I would use expensive (especially in the past few lean years with harvest-closures for certain areas) crab for. But now I sound like a snob and will accept my fate.

      You said you wanted him to putting a winning team on the field. He did. And of course Elias deserves a ton of the credit for last year. The bullpen was the strongest part of the club and Elias built most of the bullpen with a series of low key moves involving players that almost none of us knew.  One of the players that Elias drafted was runner up in the AL Rookie of the Year voting. Another player from the same draft came up late in the year and injected more life and talent into the club. Elias and his staff did a lot of things right last year. They made mistakes, but I don't think we should let those mistakes and the boring offseason ruin the enjoyment of last year and ignore the real progress that the team and especially the organization has made. It is not all gloom and doom. Heck, they won 83 games without even trying. Just think what Elias will do when he is "making a good faith effort to make the playoffs."   One year does not a rebuild make? I think that is exactly what Elias would tell us. And of course the Orioles rebuild is very much built for the long-term, not the short-term. They apparently barely have two nickels to rub together, so the team that we really want to see is going to primarily come from within. That's going to take a lot longer than you, me, and most of the fans want, but that's the way it is.    Hopefully the team gets off to a hot start and we can all go back to day dreaming about better times for the Os...and especially for us fans.

      Looks like he's playing 1B in minor league camp.  Be a great way to find our LH hitting 1B.
