Buzzette was so excited, I thought she was going to kiss her. I really, really hoped they were going to kiss. I like her too. She put one of my e-mail comments on screen once when she was on MSNBC. Congrats! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDoyler23 Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 I told a buddy I would buy the tickets for the 6/15 game against Philly and the damn game is sold out. Secondary market it is, I guess! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chump Bailey Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 So happy the Orioles have finally transformed into a winning franchise again. I hope they win it all this season for my Dad who will turn 80 in August and born and raised in Baltimore. One thing that is perplexing to me and seems like a huge mistake is not trying to go ahead and extend Gunnar like yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henderson’s agent is Scott Boras. Boras joked at the winter meetings that the Orioles call about ‘once a day’ to extend him. New Ownership has been in place for like 2 months at this point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FootballZombie Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Feisty start to the game. I'm not sure I've seen an earlier ejection outside of the anthem stare-offs that were delaying games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDoyler23 Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Chance to win 2 today with the suspended game. At least the whole pen is rested with the suspension starting in the 6th. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got on base in the top of the first and either got picked off or caught stealing. Argued and got tossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TD_washingtonredskins Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 It was bound to end, but a pretty frustrating way for the sweepless streak to end. The O's have looked pretty toothless for a while...they need to wake up soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sniffler Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 I liked Baumann... Not sure why but I'm a little surprised by this move. Mariners acquire Mike Baumann, Michael Pérez in trade from Orioles Associated Press Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDoyler23 Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Baumann was out of options so sending him down put him out there to be claimed. So they traded him to get something. He was an absolute vulture last year with 10 wins as a middle reliever. Means to the IL stinks. I wonder if his TJ surgery stuck because this is the second soreness issue since returning. Bah. May be a ‘see you in August’ (maybe) situation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as he can contribute, I don't think his spot on the 40 man is really that valuable that we need to dump him. Quality starting pitching is very difficult to find. We had a six man rotation, this move just means its back to the normal five. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to call up one of those guys (the only point of burning a 40-man roster spot for them), I think there's much better options than dumping Means. https://www.baseball-reference.com/teams/BAL/2024-roster.shtml Kaleb Ortt Jonathan Heasley Bruce Zimmerman was decent once, but I'm not convinced he will evolve into a legit ML pitcher at this point his caeer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Means could be an Alex Cobb type, who also hit injury issues at a similar point in his career, but was eventually able to turn it around. I would hate to cut bait early on someone who has shown all-star/ace level talent. Burnes is likely gone next year, I'd wait at least until next season to see if he can figure something out. If he can't get healthy this year, we can 60-day IL him and call up / sign whoever we want. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCSaints_fan Posted May 24 Author Share Posted May 24 (edited) Why couldn't O'Hearn have just struck out instead of grounding into a double play ... Santander just hit a homer, would have had the bases loaded the prior inning Edited May 24 by DCSaints_fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
