  1. Ok, but I think regardless of injury, it doesn't set up either player for success. It was a bad plan.
  2. Jerking around two young pitchers like that was a s*** move. As the results showed, they shouldn't have done that. The bullpen to starter pipeline is usually done with much more care than we saw this year. I'm not going to say this was Dusty Baker level ********, but this is the one thing that really irked me this year more than anything.
  3. FA Options (reliability may vary): Jansen Robertson Treinen (option probably gets picked up) Colomé Kimbrel Montero
  4. If we go into next season with the Red Sox having question marks in the OF and an ugly relief corps, I'm going to lose my mind...
  5. Did you expect the O's to win 30+ more games this season? Did you expect the ALCS Sox to drop 20? s*** changes year to year.
  6. The one thing I struggle with who to blame is the decision on Houck and Whitlock. Both of those guys were kind of put into pitching purgatory again this season with neither having an idea if they'd be a starter or reliever. They both got yanked around from day one and both wound up with injuries. Related?
  7. Next year is his Judgment Night.
  8. Thank you. I try to have a little fun on Friday.
  9. Inspire Bloom!
  10. Ok, so we know he won't fire Bloom this offseason so what's the point in quibbling over whether Bloom should be fired this offseason or next? If Henry's not going to do it, it's off the table.
  11. They could spend big again on DH if they are knocking on the door of a WS run. They aren't at that point right now.
  12. I was calling for a fire sale PRIOR TO THE SEASON. Do you think I'm pleased with how this all turned out?
  13. Iron sharpens iron. There are a ton of Wild Card spots now. I don't think the "tough schedule" thing is a good excuse in the Wild Card era.
  14. The "opportunity" is "what if everyone didn't spend half the year on the IL?"
  15. If Henry wants to fire Bloom, he should do it.
  16. Yes. The Orioles are 79-71. Do you think that's by accident? Do you think that's only because of Bloom?
  17. That doesn't sound right. I thought it was in Jersey? Well, lights out tonight Trouble in the heartland Got a head on collision Smashin' in my guts, man I'm caught in a cross fire That I don't understand But there's one thing I know for sure, girl I don't give a damn For the same old played out scenes Baby, I don't give a damn For just the in-betweens Honey, I want the heart, I want the soul I want control right now You better listen to me, baby Talk about a dream Try to make it real You wake up in the night With a fear so real You spend your life waiting For a moment that just don't come Well, don't waste your time waiting Badlands, you gotta live it everyday Let the broken hearts stand As the price you've gotta pay Keep pushin' 'til it's understood And these badlands start treating us good
  18. Straight to the wall, comrade.
  19. If you think the Orioles are just a doormat in 2022, you have no clue about the players on that team right now and haven't watched any of their games. Forget about the logo on their hats. Those players are young and good. Stop with that baby brained ********.
  20. Who f***ing thinks about the Orioles in that way anymore? They have a great farm system! They are above .500! If ownership doesn't get in the way, they could be a really good team for a long time. This isn't Robert Andino pumping out his chest anymore. These Orioles are a real baseball team. The Orioles have a better record than more than half of the American League for f***'s sake...
  21. At this point, it seems a strong likelihood that Bloom goes that route. I don't think some people on here will be happy about it.
  22. Kyle last year was good for 10 Walthams, 50 check marks and 100 ML Carr Towell Waves.
  23. Big boys eat more at the buffet.
  24. Dalbec should be able to play 3b and LF. They may even push him to RF depending on the stadium. Hosmer is 1B/DH. Now that there are 26 man rosters, I think you can reasonably carry both especially since one is RH and the other is LH. I think Hosmer is expendable once they are comfortable with Casas. That's the real key.
  25. Ah, but what about the narrative that he made everyone else around him better in 2021?
