Re: OT: Orioles discussion
Common denominator in all the Os present and past Futility......Peter Angelos. Baseball unlike Football hasn’t really changed all that much. Still need solid pitching. Still need hits to score and you still need solid defense to win. The O’s used to grow that on the farm. The “Orioles Way” was taught system wide. Now we barley develop any player that any other team would want despite having 14 yrs of high picks. How can Houston go from the laughing stock of baseball , a perennial basement dweller, to possibly the best team in the game??? They’ve been steadily improving since the move to the American League. Why? I say good ownership that has put the right people in place to move the franchise forward. They stay out of the day to day and let the baseball guys baseball. We had that with McPhail .....Angelos let him walk. I’d give about 90% of the past few yrs success to Andy. The new GM walked into a good situation like Harbage did in 2008. Since Dan’s fingers have been on the team ..look where we are.

Re: OT: Orioles discussion
Seriously, how can you be over ten games out of first place before the end of April?

Re: OT: Orioles discussion
Bundy had another good start tonight and they got a whole 3 runs to support him for the win. Manny seems to be playing well offensively and thats it. Looking at the box score I have never seen so many sub .200 averages

Re: OT: Orioles discussion
Thanks to Boston's rare loss (17-3) the O's only fall to 11.5 games back. The Miami Marlins are more in the pennant race than the O's, but they're supposed to be bad. If not for the Reds, The Orioles would be the worst team in baseball. They're definitely the most under performing. Going to be a painful season.
Those calling to trade Machado last year were so right. I was not in that camp.

Re: OT: Orioles discussion
I didnt think they should trade him last year either. I thought they could bounce back to being a good team and be could certainly help them. Plus I just didnt like the idea of parting with one of the best players in baseball. When was the last time the O's had one of the top 3 players in the GAME? But now I agree. They aren't going to pay him his asking price what with paying Davis as much as they do and and they should have gotten what they could for him last year.
