Not to diminish any of the horror of that event but that nine year old girl is what breaks my heart.

Her dad used to be a scout for the O's, and she was born in Maryland.

Christina-Taylor Green, the youngest victim of the mass shooting that critically injured Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, was born in Maryland a few hours after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

Her father, John Green, is a scout for the Los Angeles Dodgers and in the late 1990s was an amateur scout with the Baltimore Orioles. He went from full-time amateur scout to the Orioles' eastern regional supervisor in 1998 and lived in Conowingo, where his family had a farm.

Christina-Taylor herself played second base and was the lone girl on her Little League baseball team, the Daily Star said.

      So since Westburg is apparently still ROY eligible, Cowser and Westburg may project to be the best rookie combination since Fred Lynn and Jim Rice in 1975?

      John Means 2024

      There were several and I was one them. I'm  on record as saying I was one of his biggest Apologists . You should feel good about yourself as you were able to see that Means would be imploding before our very eyes( which was an opinion or a guess, which is what I did) as far as feeling bad for me? Dont I'm plenty good enough to know I wont be able to guess right every time

      Orioles acquire Ryan O’Hearn

      Fantastic pickup by Elias and big kudos to O’Hearn for taking advantage of the resources to improve. He’s a great story.

      Given his injury history and what’s happening right now, Means may make more money as an Oriole next year than as a free agent. He may have to settle for league minimum as a FA but would do better than that in arbitration. Heck, unless he’s effective at least a little this year then the orioles might release him after the season to avoid paying more than league minimum. I hope Means recovers, very much so, but this scenario is possible imo.    ps. I guess I ignored the part where you said if Means thinks he is healthy.

      Jackson Holliday 2024

      By Billy F-Face3 · Posted

      What I'd like to see in the next game Holliday plays, is for him to keep his eyes following through on the ball when he swings. In the last game I saw, he was yanking his head off the zone when he swung and couldn't see the bat to the ball. He was missing wildly and it wasn't even competitive. So, keep your eye on the ball! Follow all the way through! If your swing is so violent that it's yanking your head off the sight of the ball, then adjust your mechanics because you can't hit what you can't see!
