Jake Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Just thought I'd mention that Phil Humber is having an excellent spring and seems to have cinched a spot in the HOU rotation. Good for him, great guy and I hope he makes us regret losing him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleHurt05 Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 18, 2013 -> 04:11 PM) So, the NFL want the Orioles to move their Thursday, September 5th game against the White Sox to the day so the Ravens can open the season that night in Baltimore. O's in Cleveland, Sox in New York the night before. I say f*** the NFL. Plus it's a weekend before a big series with the Tigers, so the thought of playing a day/night doubleheader on Saturday isn't going to fly. Tough s***, NFL. You can't always get what you want. Not sure if anyone posted this, but the Orioles won out. Ravens will play that Thursday night opener on the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly, especially with him being due arbitration $. I just like the guy. He was so bad last year after being sent to the pen. I still remember the end of that blowout game where he could not get an out and we had get Omogrosso up to get a couple out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 QUOTE (lord chas @ Mar 24, 2013 -> 04:43 PM) Interesting to see the financials of that deal Wells, 34, is in the sixth year of a seven-year deal worth $126 million. He is owed $21 million for each of the next two seasons, but sources said the Angels would have to absorb a substantial portion of Wells' remaining salary before the deal would be completed. The Yankees' share of the remaining money be about $13 million over the next two seasons, sources told Olney. link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you write that article without doing the math on whether or not they can still get under the luxury tax line next season while still keeping Cano/Granderson? That's really all that matters.

That's really all that matters. There is no way they made the deal without either knowing they can, or knowing that they aren't resigning one of those guys (probably Granderson).

If it's the 4th game of a 4-game series, then they usually have a day game anyway. But in this case, the Orioles and Sox had no obligation to change the start time, and I'm glad they didn't.
