Melky Cabrera is "a good little player with a World Series ring.". :rofl:

It must be tough for her having to have to cover the lowly Orioles now, instead of the Yankees.

ROTFLMAO when I read your bio and it says, "Jen also serves as the Orioles insider on 105.7 The Fan".

The Insider suggests the Orioles take a look at Melky Cabrera.

WANTED: Baltimore radio station in need of new "insider" who actually knows baseball. Apply to 105.7 The Fan.

Come on girl, you're starting to wobble a little bit now. Dust yourself and get back up to the plate. The Melky Cabrera comment hurt your credibility big time, but knock one out of the park and you'll be right back in our good graces.

P.S. I know you won't post this. Does your boss at MASN know you censor these comments and only post ones that agree with you? Better not Luke Scott find out you're censoring stuff.

___________________________________

First of all, I post EVERY SINGLE comment that comes into my blog. My boss does not monitor them. I do. And again, I post them all. Even the ones like this when people hammering me.

I never said Melky was the answer. Gimme a break. I covered Melky from his rookie season on and he's a good little player with a World Series ring. I didn't know you were all in love with Felix Pie! Jezzzzzz.

Appreciate your comment and your warm heart.

I don't know that I've ever heard an analyst or reporter for the team be so blatantly, out in the open against a player like Royle is against Pie, and without any real clarification on why. If you think Cabrera would be an upgrade over what we have then fine, it's perfectly within your right to feel that way, provided you back it up with something tangible and meaningful. Not just, he's got a WS ring.

Then to just bash the fans because they're "in love" with Felix Pie is pretty classless, especially because they disagree with your "opinion." Fans are entitled to their opinion, no matter how right or wrong it is, and you're entitled to yours, no matter how wrong it is.

I had a twitter run in with her not too long ago.

I backed down as I may have been rude, but seeing her respond to these comments makes me wish I hadn't.

She claims she's one of the nicest people in Baltimore. I disagree.

She is from Boston and had lived in NYC for 10 years...

I feel bad for Ken Weinman when he is on the air with her. His comments will be spot on and she will disagree with him basically because she has no idea what she is talking about and then she turns on that New York/Boston charm by basically raising her voice every time he tries to speak so that she can somehow win the argument because she yelled louder. It drives me insane. I don't know how the people on air put up with it.

She considers Bmore to be small time.

Since she is from NY/Boston, it appears that she thinks by default she has superior reporting insights than the hokey Baltimore media.

I even remember reading an interview with her when she said she chose to move to Baltimore because she chose to be a 'big fish in a small pond.'

Lol..apparantly she is a big fish. THAT is a newsflash.

DOOD!!! Don't you get it!?!?1/1/11?!?!?! MELKY IS A WINNAR!

Only Jen Royle can understand such a concept since we are nothing but lowly Orioles fans. Did you know that she used to cover the Yankees? Yeah, that's right, The Yankees. Capital T. The Big Winners. Kings of Baseball. The Champs Even When They're Not Champs. The Bronx Bombers. The Greatest Team Ever.

Jen Royle knows more about winning the any of us can even comprehend. No doubt she was sent down from the Yankee heavens to teach us an important lesson about what it takes to be winners, but most of us will never understand.

Guys, watch this video. Could you make it past the first minute and a half? Neither could I, but that's because I'm a loser! Jen Royle f'n get's it. Pffft, look at her deft analysis of the 2009 Yankees. Did they win the World Series cause they spent a quarter of a billion dollars? NO. WRONG. They won cause they were gritty. They won cause they were having fun. They won because the looked like kids out there!!!! Did you know the Yankees had multiple Nick Swisher's and multiple CC Sabathia's? No? That's because you're a loser.

Need I say anymore? I say fire AM--he came from the Cubs, losers of the first degree! Who want's a loser running this team? Not me! I want a winner. Jen Royle is that winner. Jen Royle for GM! Jen Royle for President! Viva Jen Royle! Bring in Scott Brosius (winner). Bring in Roger Clemens (winner). Bring in that mediocre utility infielder who ran over a woman (winner). Bring 'em all in Jen! They're winners! Winners just like you.

Guys, Jen Royle gets it.

Thanks a million! That Wicked Witch logo at the beginning reminded me of the ex. :slytf:

      By SteveA · Posted

      Javy Baez has been on 5 playoff teams including a World Series winner and an LCS team.  128 postseason plate appearances. Mark Canha has been on 5 playoff teams and has 54 postseason plate appearances. Gio Urshela has been on 4 playoff teams and in an LCS and has 88 postseason plate appearances. Those 3 guys may not be big postseason contributors right now but that doesn't mean they aren't providing some amount of leadership by example.   They did have 1000 PAs among them this year for the Tigers.

      Of course the question asked in that article doesn't really directly answer what a lot of people are talking about. No one is saying we want to have a roster full of guys with experience. But some have suggested that have a team almost completely devoid of guys who have had postseason success, might lead to a bunch of young players who lack role models and mentors and leaders who can help them the first time they face the pressure of the postseason, which really is a totally different animal than the 162 game regular season grind. Anecdotally, there are many guys from the 1966 Orioles (which was a pretty young team) who talked about how Frank came in and "taught us how to win". Anecdotally, back in the days of the "Oriole way", players talked about coming into the organization and learning from veterans how to conduct yourself and how to play the game the right way.   It's hard to have that when you have a total gutting/rebuild of a franchise.    Anecdotally, in the book Astroball, which I read quite a few years ago but I think I remember this part, they talked about the front office coming to the realization that they needed to bring in some veteran leadership, and specifically targeting Carlos Beltran for that reason. Maybe the anecdotes are BS.   Maybe guys just make up narratives after something is successful.   But these ARE human beings, not just a sequence of stats and numbers.   It makes sense that, especially with young players who have never dealt with failure much, the pressure of the postseason could become an isssue and it might be nice to have some wise old heads to lean on. We have a core of young players who have basically been eagerly awaited by fans, told that they are the basis of the next winning franchise, and greeted with adulation.   They came into a team that had minimal veteran leadership and no postseason experience.   They are managed by a manager who has been a coach on winning teams but has never managed in the postseason before.   They have hitting coaches who were hired because of their ability to promote a hitting philosophy and modern coaching techniques that the organization believes are optimal, but who have never coached major league players before in any capacity. Our core players are trying to figure out how to be major leaguers with far less guidance than people who have been there, than perhaps any group of young players ever.   They may be getting excellent instruction and swing analysis and data that will help them hit better, but they have no one who has been through the mental and physical and emotional  tribulations of being a young player in the majors and triumphed, to serve as an example as they try to grown into superstars and champions. In previous seasons, before "liftoff", we brought in guys like Frazier and Chirinos specifically to serve as veteran role modeals, and were able to do so because all the MLB pieces weren't in place yet and there were roster spots available.   Now those spots aren't available, and if we bring in someone for veteranosity they are also going to have to be good enough to play on a championship team.   Harder to find those guys of course.   But I wouldn't dismiss the need altogether.

      It sounds like it was bad but perhaps not as bad as they thought it would be.

      Don't think it matters much, tbh.

      Would you say that the Tigers rebuild is more successful than the O's?

      By LookitsPuck · Posted

      Oh, I'd love to have one come through our system by being drafted and developed. No doubt at all.
