I say Joe Coleman pitching in a minor league championship game in Albuquerque New Mexico at the end of his career by pure chance. Don't remember anything else about that trip or who I was with or what I was doing. Whisky and Baseball. Hell of a combo.

Do you agree with that strategy ?

We are enjoying an unprecendented run of great baseball covering two seasons now and are positioned for that ( contending) to continue for the foreseeable future and I am not interested on trading that for one player who "might" bring us a title. Championships are great of course but multiple months of contending baseball with a chance at a Title is worth more to me. Stay the course.

I think he's a better hitter than all of them. Think Issac Parades with more power.

Perry sure likes to talk

Thanks for the promotion.

Sorry for says nuts. You seem more knowledgeable than me and maybe Miller is a number one starter in hiding. But Clark seems the real deal to me.

Nah he’s a master blaster. Going to fool all the evaluators even the good ones like you.

That’s nuts in my opinion. A reliever ? Sorry not for me.

Not trying to be Orioles GM Elias and all but I hope we keep our farm intact this deadline unless the return has multiple years of control. Relief pitchers on expiring contracts should not require over pay. So glad it’s Scottie and not Al at the wheel.

WTF

Maybe Platoonford took under slot $( if he really did) because Texas does not have state income tax.

Not so sure we need a bat or starter. Wouldn’t give up much for either that’s for sure. What we need is two dependable relievers.

Well, a slump was inevitable, but that doesn’t make it any more pleasurable. Hope they can pull out of it quickly and not give back too much ground, but it is a long long season.

Hotten broken.

Milt Wilcox ? Walt Terrel ?

It's sad that it's not surprising Jobe is having surgery. Losing our top pitching and perhaps player to season ending surgery really stinks. Team depth has never been more important.

I think it's all of the above with perhaps a nod to development if we consider Torks and McStinky and Baez improvements attributed to that as well. I remember Harris saying "development" includes at the major league level.

Detroit Tigers hinting down their prey at an impressive rate. Soild and deep roster playing with passion under good leadership. So happy we finally got here.

That makes perfect sense and to clarify when I said we don’t need to sign any of them I meant any particular one not all of them. But you clarified better than I did.

I’m not sure we need to sign any of those players for their expensive non controlled free agent seasons. Certainly not at over value. Harris just needs to keep the development wheels moving and pick and choose free agents as needed. Max the six years of team control and move on. Financial flexibility is more important than any one or two players. i really think it’s the Harris blueprint. And most non coastal teams will do the same.

Great game by the Captain

May he eat Humble Pie today.

I hope Rainer has a full recovery and maintains his arm strength. Any word that will be the case ? Can he still work on something this year to not lose an entire year of training?

Montero pitching like he 's mad about not opening 😀
