  1. Not going to be popular...but gotta move TA out of the 1st slot! At least for a bit! He seems exhausted...and if he isn't going to make things happen...maybe Hernandez can?
  2. I enjoyed watching him because sadly there doesn't seem to be a place in baseball for a guy like that these days! He kind of forced his way into the situation! I wonder if he would even be up in the BIGS yet if he happened to be a 5th round pick yet performed the same way during his brief MiLB tenure? His play reminded me of the way baseball used to be...neither better or worse...just different! I can't root for him though...just can't do that for anyone wearing that uniform! PS - I was shocked when I heard Stone's critique of Nick on the Score today...wow!
  3. Yep...might as well bunt if that is going to be his approach!
  4. I remember the day I heard Harold Baines was traded to Texas...it was heart-breaking! Of course, Larry Himes "fleeced" Texas in that deal and no way Yadi is worth 2 prospects like the White Sox hauled in for Baines. But I do get your sentiment...it stings the fans a bit when those types of situations happen!
  5. Yeah...I don't blame him! If he can get $3 million last winter coming off is resume...what will he get coming off this season (assuming he finishes strong and healthy)?!?!
  6. Yeah...agree! The 7 inning game is the worst idea they have tried to implement so far in my opinion! I get trying to tweak things to see what works and what doesn't...but 7 innings is not a MLB game!
  7. I feel the same! Way too fast! Can't focus on the ball traveling due to the quick pitch!
  8. The guy is still learning the position...while he certainly isn't a gold-glove type player out there right now...he has done more than alright this season!
  9. One thing I love about the O's today...their uniforms! Other than that...lets get after them!
  10. Agree...this one is complicated and over the top...EVEN if all of this was consensual (which...I am struggling to believe)! He might have been trapped...but if what we have read is true about his actions...yikes! I don't think I could cheer for that guy even if he was on my team!
  11. Agree...Gary Thorne was very good when he was with the White Sox for a short time! Too bad for him it was right before the White Sox renaissance (1988 or 1989?)!
  12. Agree...but I wanted to reply to say I LOVE YOUR USERNAME!!!
  13. Man...this is a tough situation! I have no idea legally what is happening...and I have been one of those who think what happens in a bedroom that is consensual is private and fine! However...if this is what it takes for Trevor Bauer to get his rocks off...yikes! This story is scary from a lot of different angles!
  14. Agree...that was a heckuva play by the O's 3B!
  15. At the very least I hope advances the runners!
  16. I will say this...while that game will be of interest for some pretty cool reasons...there are much bigger things to focus upon when lining up the rotation!
  17. This! I think it just might be time to start working Kopech into the rotation! I know the fears...but at some point Kopech needs be in the rotation!
  18. So...McCarthy seems to support the automated strike zone...right? Based off that one tweet...
  19. Do you think it was Renteria's plan in game 3? Or Cooper's and Renteria went with it? Personally I feel that the (mis)management of the pitching staff had to be more than just those two making that decision. Hahn had to approve of it right? The one thing for certain after that game was that Dunning was gone no matter what! No way he stays in the organization after doing that to him!
  20. This is great! Best broadcasting duo will get even better!
  21. The way the 6 out stint played out it seems OK and it also seemed like for whatever reason they were trying to find a spot to get him more than an inning? Maybe way off base but it felt like the staff wanted Hendriks to throw a bit more than usual?
