It was so quiet last night you could actually hear a guy yell at Griffey "Don't fall asleep!" during his first AB.

Were you there? Cause I was, and there were several people (including myself and my 4 friends sitting with me) that were heckling him.

Maybe it was quiet on TV, but there were a lot of people laughing at Griffey..

Sidenote: This guy a section over us had a pillow with "Property of Ken Griffey Jr." written on that. Quite creative.

Are you going to sit there and tell me with a straight face that if this team was over .500 right now that attendance would be this poor in this weather?

I can't believe this is even a discussion! SilentJames blindly loves the O's as much as JTrea hates them. I don't understand how any rational thought could lead one to the conclusion that this attendance is derived from anything other than our massive suckitude.

You know what we need? Do you guys remember the heckler in Tampa Bay? That fat loudmouth that would just ride the crap out of whatever opposing player he picked out for that team for the season?

Well, I'm a fat loudmouth. If PA or AM would give me box seats a few rows behind home plate, I'd yell at a guy nonstop for the rest of the season.

Who would you guys yell at from each AL team?

I am going to give it a try:

Toronto : Overbay

Tampa Bay : Pena

Yankees : Cervelli

Boston : Beltre

Twins : Punto

Cleveland: Cabrera

Detroit : Damon

KC : Ankiel

White Sox: AJ

Seattle : Griffey (Kotchman if Griff is not playing)

Angels : Izturis

Texas : Smoak

LOL... no. I heard it on the telecast. That's fantastic though.

      Draft Targets 2 Months Out

      By RZNJ · Posted

      I’d be very surprised too but it’s all about talent and where you draft.  At 22 it’s tough to get high ceiling talent.  I’d guess Brecht is a reliever at the next level but he’s got dominant reliever upside.  His stuff, reportedly, is as good as any pitcher in the draft.  95 strikeouts in 55 innings as a starter.

      He's already a HOF.  It's just that his injuries have killed his chances of being an Inner Circle HOF.

      By now · Posted

      With three more hits today, Etzel is at .360/.992. He has 171 MiLB at bats, so a third of a season. Which projects to a full season with:  513 AB 111 R 39 2B 12 3B 12 HR 114 RBI 93 BB 123 SO 90 SB 21 CS .339 AVG .445 OBP .532 SLG Not too shabby!

      Why I don't fully trust Catch Probability

      By brooks1083 · Posted

      I would love for someone to explain or justify to me how in the world Mullins catch on 4/15 is listed at 65% catch probability. There are a couple of guys in the league that make that catch but it’s a very short list. Maybe I just don’t understand the stat.

      Cade Povich 2024

      By Punchandjudy · Posted

      Not sure a pitcher technically can get “squeezed” by the automated strike zone but Povich had a number of borderline pitches tonight that could go the other way.  Handley was visibility perturbed by a few of the calls on walks and Povich doubled over in disbelief on a couple of walk calls. He reminds me a little of Tom Glavine how he throws, his wind up, how he hides the ball and how it explodes out his hand….sort of effortless. I heard the announcer for the Sound say Povich’s curveball hasn’t had a hit against it all year long and every other pitch is around .100 batting avg against.  In person, his fastball has a lot more giddy up than the radar shows.  98 pitches tonight and looks like he has a rubber arm.

      a game you'd hope Mullins, Mountcastle or Santander would step up and were let down.
